Web Design do's and dont's: "These web design suggestions are targeted at starting web designers and people that may need some help to get things going

Tip 1 - Use a reference
If you see an interesting web design or layout, try to use it as a reference.

Tip 2 - Be original
Be original and try to avoid things that have been done a million time before such as: page counters, javascript text scrolling, excessive animated GIFs, 'under construction' signs, page fade-ins, etc.

Tip 3 - content is king

Create unique content, the more pages with quality content you have the better. Make the content on your main page focused and avoid the need for the user to scroll down too far on a web page.

Tip 4 - Graphics
Graphics should always support he content and never dominate the content. Avoid excessive use of graphics, or any other graphical elements.

Tip 5 - HTML compliant
Make sure you follow all the HTML standards and that you are fully HTML-compliant, as some browsers are more efficient when the proper HTML code is used.

Tip 6 - File Size
Make sure that your site is relatively quick to load, no matter what you put on it. There are obviously a number of factors that can affect how quickly a website loads, but try to make sure that excessive file sizes isn't one of them.

Tip 7 - Colors
Use a colorscheme of matching colors. Avoid excessive use of shouting colors such as green, yellow, or red.
