Formatting a web-page: The anatomy of a well designed website

Website formatting is one of the most important factors in promoting your online business. While you may encounter noticeable obstacles this aspect decides a lot for users. Formatting can both intrigue your users and make them want to leave your site.

As Wiredimpact tells us, there is a way to turn great text into interesting web content on virtually any website if we take this issue seriously.



Best Website Formatting Practices

There are some common features that well-designed sites have in common.





At the end of each section, make sure you have each item in mind


Scanned content

Online content is different from downloaded content. Online readers like scanned content because it allows them to quickly read the page, get a quick look at the details; So that you do not have to spend extra time and energy on the whole page.

• Use "headings" to divide the content
• Breaking the text into small pieces helps the above-mentioned users to easily codify your content. When changing the theme it is recommended to change the heading as well.
• When several heading styles are available, start with heading 2 (heading 1 is typically separated for titles) and follow this numbering for web access.

Use bulletins for lists

To make the content easier to conclude, turning long sentences into bulletins is a pretty good idea.


Check the scan

Online readers expect your content to be easily scanned. The following tips will help you live up to those expectations

• Each page has headers to divide the topics
• Each header is easy to understand
• Users who scan do not have to read more than 3-4 paragraphs without a header
• The lists on the page are formatted with bulletins

Limited bold & italics

Excessive bold & italics (especially together) is an uncomfortable read. As well as overlaying the text with colors. Instead of focusing on any of the paragraphs it instead prevents the customer from reading.


Bold text is used to indicate important phrases or sentences to make it easier to infer
Bold text longer than one sentence is very rare in jobs.
Italics are allocated for specific terminology or for the correct format of the publication.



Visual

Online readers are visually oriented. When possible add the following visual components:

• pictures
• Videos
• Jacks
• Schedules
• Buttons
• CAT

Visuals can make your page more intriguing and focus on this or that element, if desired.




Check your visuals on any of the pages:

• The page contains at least two visual elements (more than two in a better version)
• The visual elements are related to the content and strategically positioned to attract attention.
• The images have the right magnifications, neither too big to slow down the page nor too low quality.
• In small pictures, observe that your text is arranged accordingly around it
• You can use the space between the visual elements so that there is no feeling of excessive density

Check out the internal link

• Does your page have at least one link to another page on your site?
• Does the link text clearly show the customer where to move it?
• Is the content linked to instead of being duplicated on the page?

The anatomy of web design is not overly complicated but it does take time and effort. Hopefully these tips will help you suddenly review your websites and fix them if you find a downside anywhere.



Consistent formatting


Depending on the wishes and goals of your organization, you may want to make these practices more personal and modified. However, you should be careful that the elements sorted by standard practices and those sorted by your choice do not create too bad a contrast.

To check if your formatting is consistent across the site, create style guidelines to build the rest of the pages accordingly.

Your style implies even the tendencies to use bold or italics. Try to strike a balance between creativity and organization.
