A Quick Tip on Web Usability
February 10, 2010
Hi,
Web usability is a very important aspect in web design. In fact, there are web professionals out there who call themselves ‘usability’ specialist.
What is Web Usability?
This is basically understanding how a web page and a web site are made easier to use .. from the web surfers perspective. This is really, really important stuff because the less usable a website is, the less likely the site will be successful. For example, if you have very unfriendly (bad usability) shopping cart installed in your site, you would see sales drop off … sometimes dramatically.
… This is bad, because then your client couldn’t afford to hire you again!!
😉
In the following video, I show you a real life example of how simply moving a page widget over to the right of the page, had a dramatic impact. You will also see one of my old (circa 2004) web sites … ouch:
I hope you guys and girls find this useful.
