Difficult customers

Sometime I got inquiry with about following text:

"hello I need a website".

And here arise a question, why a person who submit a contact form doesn’t think that his message is not concrete.

For a quick quote web site designer need to know what kind of website, how many pages, any media elements, static or dynamic site etc… The problem is that most of clients run small business and not skilled with average internet understanding.

That’s why I’m thinking to create detailed questionary application from in my contact form, so that to save both mine and customer’s time. Hopefully sooner I will find a time to create it.

Web designing is not about designing the most beautiful website

One of the most common misconceptions prevailing in recent times, that has far reaching consequences, is that web designing is an easy job! There are many amongst us who believe that they have an aptitude for web designing since it doesn’t seem like a tough job at all. The fault lies in the widespread perception that web designing is all about making a website look aesthetically appealing to the net users in order to increase its saleability. So, all that a web designer has to do is design a wonderful website and keep enhancing its aesthetic appeal now and then with a few additions. This misconception is further fuelled by a number of easily accessible software tools that ‘claim’ that web designing is probably the easiest thing to do and something that you can easily manage on your own without the help of a web designer. The result is that a large number of websites are designed by amateur web designers who ignore the accessibility of the website to all the operating systems and thereby render the website inaccessible to a huge number of Internet users.
 

 The belief that web designing is a job that can be handled by anyone is probably as blasphemous as the belief that a good artist needs no creativity to paint a masterpiece. A good web designer is a perfect combination of a creative mind with technical finesse. In my opinion, a good web designer is one who has the ability to think both like an ordinary net user who is definitely attracted by the colourful images on a website and a savvy technician who knows exactly what to put on the website for a serious net user. Here are a few pointers that I feel every web designer should pay attention to while designing a website.
