Basic Web Page Creation

Website usability is a critical tool in gaining conversions and increasing revenue. Without it, a
business will struggle or have to work harder to attract customers.

WYSIWYG is the acronym for What You See Is What You Get. This means that whatever you type,
insert, draw, place, rearrange, and everything you do on a page is what the audience will see. Like
using MS Word, WYSIWYG shows and prints whatever you type on the screen.

Basic Web Design Principles:

a. Balance – symmetrical and asymmetrical arrangements of the text and objects of the web
page.
b. Proximity – proper arrangement of related elements would facilitate user interaction.
c. Focus – a web page must have a focal point that you want the user to focus on and remember.
d. White Spaces – -literary blank spaces to allow readability of important texts and draw
attention to images on the website.
e. Unity – it is achieved by using the same company logo, font color, font style, composition,
and other elements.
f. Alignment – it is the proper arrangement and positioning of the elements of the website.
