It’s true, usability has become a commodity.

Usability means not just “easy to use” but also….


Efficient Effective Engaging Easy to Learn


Both the design and development process are focused around the

prospective user


to build websites that are efficient and easy to use.

to make sure their goals, mental models, and requirements are met


When a new visitor comes to your website for the first time an initial impression will be formed pretty quickly


A good first impression will drastically increase the chances of that visitor returning again.


Here are a few principles of good “website usability”.

Make sure to consider these in your next project.


Availability and Accessibility


Server uptime

It’s important to ensure your visitors don’t get an error trying to load your site. Invest in good hosting.


Broken links

Double check that there are no dead links on your site. Nothing sends a visitor back to Google search results faster than a 404 page.


Mobile responsiveness

Make sure your site can handle different screen sizes and slow connections.


Clarity

Visitors come to your site with certain goals in mind.

It is your job to help them reach these goals as quickly as possible.


Simplicity

Focus on what’s important. If you don’t distract your visitors….They will be more likely to do what you want them to do.


Familiarity

Stick to what people already know.

There is nothing wrong with looking at other sites for inspiration.


Guidance

Take your visitors by the hand.

Guide them through your site and show them what you have to offer.


Good information architecture Understand your visitors’ mental models and how they would expect you to structure the content on your site.


Relevancy

It is not enough that your website is clear, your content must also be relevant.

it is essential that you know your users and why they visit your site.


Usability means test, test, and test again

Good usability depends on whether your website is available, clear, credible, learnable, and relevant to the people who actually use it.


We wish you all the best! ”Knowledge is driving Change”.
