them back to the main page. create a navigation structure that is
common for all the pages in your Web.Keep the use of hyperlinks inside
your text paragraphs to a minimum. Don't use hyperlinks inside text
paragraphs to send your visitors to every random page of your Web. If
you must use hyperlinks, add them to the bottom of a paragraph or to
the navigation menus of your site. A key aspect to making your visitors
happy is insuring they go where they need to go, quickly and
efficiently. Good navigation design comes from experience, and should
be one of the most important aspects of your website design

identity your website. Have a captivating tag line somewhere with the
header, and write an About Us page which describes the uniqueness of
your website. These will leave an impression for your visitors to
remember your website.

color scheme based on the theme of your website. Choose carefully a set
of colors you use for your background, text, border, tables and cells
etc.The color scheme expresses the characters of your website and makes
it unique and attractive.
One of the most important aspects you need to keep in mind at all times
when choosing a website design firm or designing the website yourselfis
to remember that most of your visitors havent spoken to you yet and
your site will be the first impression they have of your company. If
your website design lacks professionalism and/or does not reflect that
of a well established company, your new prospect can easily loose
confidence.
1.Try and avoid run of the mill things
like page counters, java text scrolling, flashing images, GIF images,
signs which say we are not ready. Or, too many illustrations or
animations, black grounds or fade ins.
2. Create a design which coveys in a stylish way what it has to. Instead of using downloaded illustrations use original ones.
3. Avoid things like heavy files or graphics. These will slow down your pages. GIF is better than JPEG files.
4. Think of the target audience and subject being addressed when designing. The overall effect should be that of exclusivity.
