Homepage development
Development
a Home page means design page that includes all information regarding our site
and what exectly our site can allow
services. For a Web website developer, a home page is the first page introduced
when a client chooses a webpage or vicinity on the World Wide Web. The typical
location for a Web webpage is the landing page address, despite the fact that
you can enter the location (Uniform Resource Locator) of any page and have that
page sent to you.
whenever
Development of a Home page done , you can set it to open to any Web site. For
example, you can specify that "http://www.yahoo.com" or
"http://whatis.com" be your home page. You can also specify that
there be no home page (a blank space will be displayed) in which case you choose
the first page from your bookmark list or enter a Web address.

The Ten
Most Violated Homepage Design Guidelines :
1.
Emphasize what your site offers that's of value to users and how your services
differ from those of key competitors
This is
one of the most important issues in homepage design, so it's particularly sad
that it's the least followed of all the guidelines. Websites are incredibly bad
at explicitly stating what they offer users. Instead, they hide their offerings
in generic marketese that makes very little impression on prospective
customers.
2. Use a
liquid layout that lets users adjust the homepage size
Fighting
frozen layouts seems a lost battle, but it's worth repeating: different users
have different monitor sizes. People with big monitors want to be able to
resize their browsers to view multiple windows simultaneously. You can't assume
that everyone's window width is 800 pixels: it's too much for some users and
too little for others.
3. Use
color to distinguish visited and unvisited links
4. Use
graphics to show real content, not just to decorate your homepage
5.
Include a tag line that explicitly summarizes what the site or company does
6. Make
it easy to access anything recently featured on your homepage
7.
Include a short site description in the window title
This is
mainly important for search engine visibility, but why not take advantage of
this superior -- and cheap -- form of Internet marketing?
8. Don't
use a heading to label the search area; instead use a "Search" button
to the right of the box
This is
a small point, but there's no reason to label the search box if there's a
"Search" button right next to it. Interaction design's less is more
principle tells us that extra elements in a dialogue distract users from the
salient points and reduce their ability to understand an interface.
9. With
stock quotes, give the percentage of change, not just the points gained or lost
10.
Don't include an active link to the homepage on the homepage
This is
a special case of a guideline that applies to all website or intranet pages :
never have a link that points to the current page. (A button to refresh stock
quotes or other changing information is a different matter, and should be
presented as a command button rather than a navigation link since it doesn't
lead to a new location.) Active links to current pages cause three problems:
- If they click it, a link leading to the current page is an utter waste of users' time.
- Worse, such links cause users to doubt whether they're really at the location they think they're at.
- Worst of all, if users do follow these no-op links they'll be confused as to their new location, particularly if the page is scrolled back to the top.
