What makes for good web design?


What makes for good wed design? How can a website deliver its clear message and purpose to users? The following video answers the questions that have been asked since the beginning of the Web.


Christopher Merrill is a prominent web designer who dedicated his work on designing webs since 1999. He specilises in web site design and is working closely with his client to provide high quality web site design. He’s designed over 200 web sites worldwide and he is a popular figure in social networking sites such as Youtube, giving advices on how to create a good web design.

In the video he argues that a web design should please the users and not the creator. He highlights that a common mistake that web developers make is that they try to “Wow the users” and put too much information on the front page of their screen. A good web design according to Mr Merrill is “Clearn, crisp and honest” delivering a clear message to users who visit their site. It is not the website you want to impress users with but rather the message it tries to convey.
