There are two potential points of view when it comes to web design: for clients, it is the need to realize core objectives in achieving a great internet creation in order to sell products or services online. On the other hand, for a web designer, the main objective is to achieve a greatly constructed internet presence that will cause clients products and services to successfully compete for online sales.

Most problems with internet creations have little to do with the main objectives of both designers and clients; yet both need to be aware of the common mistakes that makes searchers avoid particular URL locations.

As much as possible, errors should be avoided; most mistakes can be resolved with careful attention to all details. The following is a list of common web design errors and some potential solution to avoid them.

Excessive Ads €" It is a common mistake when deciding to make some money through ads that too many are place on a page to the point of annoying visitors. It is important to remember that the purpose is to sell your own products and services and not necessarily those of the advertisers.

Flash Usage €" Excessive use of Flash may cause loading delays which can irritate viewers and potential customers. Use Flash appropriately and use it to aid a website's usability and not just to appear creative.

Poor Content €" Content can be both too long to be useful or lacking in useful information to the searchers of the particular topic represented on that page. Maintain web pages carefully with high quality content that is short, able to be scanned, and answer a user's questions.

Layout and Navigation Issues €" The use of too many steps to achieve even a simple task or layouts with fixed page width are annoying to searchers. Simplify a layout and minimize the number of steps necessary to perform simple tasks on the website. In addition, be sure that users can re-size any new window.

Difficult Forms €" Forms should not feature too many unnecessary questions or options for users. Forms on a website should be easy and simple enough for users to complete. Eliminate irrelevant questions, use auto-fill support, allowing users to have flexible input, and as much as possible avoid mandatory fields unless absolutely necessary.

Non-Standard Links €" Using links that are barely visible, hard to differentiate or indistinguishable by users are some examples of non-standard links. Use these guidelines as standards for any website links: Make the links obvious, especially for text links, using color and underline text to make them stand out; differentiate unvisited links from visited links; give users key information terms about where the links will take them. Instead of using 'click here' links, try to use descriptive link text and open links in the same windows unless a pdf file is involved.

Broken links €" These links transfer to pages that are never found or not available when requested. Double check links and do it on a regular basis to ensure that all of these connections are working.

Irregular Fonts €" This term commonly refers to strange fonts that annoy most online searchers. Use regular fonts such as Arial, Tahoma, Verdana and the likes as well as fonts with regular sizes and a good contrast between text and its background.

This list of common problems can be prevented which will help attract more visitors to stay longer and even increase website hits. From a design perspective, it is really challenging to determine whether these errors have been successfully addressed. Above all, moderation and balance of everything is what really matters. Avoid mistakes and have an outstanding, well-designed website!
