Website Design & Development

Building an effective website today involves far more knowledge than it ever did. So many aspects need to be thought through before the URL name is even purchased and the first word published. At Buffalo Website Builder a proven plan is executed for every client we take on to ensure a responsive, modern, visually stimulating and effective website is created that supersedes the client’s requirements and provides a generous ROI.

Websites that are not well designed tend to perform poorly and have sub-optimal Google Analytics metrics.

Everything about your website – including the content, the way it looks, and the way it works – is determined by the website design. Web design is a process of conceptualizing, planning, and building a collection of electronic files that determine the layout, colors, text styles, structure, graphics, images, and use of interactive features that deliver pages to your site visitors. Professional Web design helps to make your business appear credible online.

BWB Design Principles

1
Purpose. Each page of your website needs to have a clear purpose, and to fulfill a specific need for your website users in the most effective way possible.
2
Communication. People on the web tend to want information quickly, so it is important to communicate clearly, and make your information easy to read and digest. Techniques include: Headings, Sub-Headings, Bullet Points.
3
Typefaces. Easy to read. The ideal font size for reading easily online is 16px and stick to a maximum of 3 typefaces in a maximum of 3 point sizes to keep your design streamlined. 
4

Colors. A well thought out color palette can go a long way to enhance the user experience.

5

Images. A picture can speak a thousand words, and choosing the right images for your website can help with brand positioning and connecting with your target audience.

6

Navigation. Navigation is about how easy it is for people to take action and move around your website. Some tactics for effective navigation include a logical page hierarchy, using bread crumbs, designing clickable buttons, and following the ‘three click rule’ which means users will be able to find the information they are looking for within three clicks.

7

Layout Grids. Placing content randomly on your web page can end up with a haphazard appearance that is messy. Grid based layouts arrange content into sections, columns and boxes that line up and feel balanced, which leads to a better looking website design.

8

Load Time. Fast website load times utilizing compressed code, optimizing image sizes, reducing HTTP requests.

9

Mobile Friendly. Building a Website that renders correctly to all of the 100’s of internet devices is critical nowadays. Who can afford to have an investment (website & digital marketing) that’s losing visitors just because it doesn’t show up on a mobile device in a comprehensible fashion?
