A good web site should be something that is pleasing to the look at. But also a site that does not bog you down with useless information and then makes it hard for you to find the content you are looking for. A good web site is one that makes good use of the navigation bars. It’s important to be able to find that easily and not waste your own time. I think a great example of a web site that just began appearing on my radar recently is http://www.yelp.com/ . Yelp has grown in popularity and i think it could be going strong. First off the thing i like about the layout of this site, is that right off the bat it will choose the area you are near , for example San fransisco and that weeds out a lot of unnessesary content. Its also very easy to use the navigation menu to search for another area; because you can search for the name of the resturant or shop and it will tell you were they are in the area, as well as include photos and reviews by regular people. A good web page in todays fast paced world, is a site that is easy to acess and use and that doesnt waste its space. Yelp has lot of interesting categories including(but not limited to) “user reviews near you”, and “popular events near you”, by doing this rather then filling it with ads, people who come to this site want reviews and interesting options, the white spave and design may seem cluttered at first, but 90% of the thinks lead to something that offers to personalise and improve you experience on the site.
A good web site design by today’s standards
