Create an attractive and good looking website but without compromising on the basic structural needs of a website to make your online venture a profitable one.

Avoid Splash Page

When it comes to business website You have only few seconds to impress the visitors that your site will provide the answer to what they are looking for.

Putting a splash page as opening page and that too without any useful information about your site will drive the visitors away. Usually the visitors don't bother to explore a site beyond the splash page. Use attractive graphics appropriately in your first page and don't over use it.

Have a design that portrays your product or service

Design your site to assure the visitors even in their first glance that they are at the right place and they will get what they want. Mere attractive graphics that are not related to your business theme will not make conversion.

Your website design, color and graphics should tell in uncertain terms, what your site is all about. Have a header that clearly tells about your product or service.

Keep an easy to follow navigation menu

Your website's navigation menu is plays an important role in keeping the visitors for a long time at your site. Keep it simple and easy to follow. Write the menu labels with clear meaning. Your main menu labels should not confuse the visitors. They should get a clear picture of what they will see if they click the menu.

Don' give too many options in your first page. This will confuse the visitors and they will simply leave your website. Group your contents into few main categories to reduce the choice. This avoid the visitors from becoming disoriented and confused.

Make the impression why your site is different

Take any field, there are a lot of competing sites. To withstand competition and make more conversions your website should tell the visitors a clear information about the product or service you are offering.

Tell the benefit of your site and who will benefit from it. Tell, how your site is different and what the visitors will get from you which they won't get from sites that offer similar service. Have a headline that answers their question or the benefit they would get by sticking around your site.

Write a scannable copy

Visitors of any website won't read the copy word by word. They will usually glance through the page looking for the information they want. They will be looking for clues that will help them understand what the site is about.

Use subheads, bulleted list and some white space to make your visitor easily glance through your page. Make some words bold to highlight your points. Keep your copy in not too wider format.

Place contact link in the home page

Place the contact form or link prominently in your front page. Making your visitor to search for the contact form will frustrate them and they will leave your site. For the sites offering services online placing the contact form itself instead of contact link, in the front page is recommended. For the sites with a long copy sales letter or selling catalogue products this is not recommended.

Keep your website design simple and easily navigable to get more conversions. You will lose more visitors if you make them to click so many times to get the information they want. Each extra click will make you lose a lot of visitors. 

To lay the foundation for your financial independence improve your website design to make it profitable.
