There are several elements that define a successful website. In this article we will focus on the 5 most important design techniques. These will guarantee the success of your website.

A modern and airy design. The visual impact can not be created if the website looks like it was created in the year 2000. Full-width style with strong visual elements (pictures, colors) with little text and beautifully arranged is the new fashion and has the most success.
All these aspects give the website a powerful visual impact that will motivate visitors to buy. It will also be memorable and the brand will have its own personality.
Establishing a clearer website layout will help users navigate and find the information / product you are looking for.

In 2018, over 80% of Internet users have a mobile device, of which 48% use it for daily navigation. Until recently, websites had a fixed width of 900px in the hope that all users will have a similar and uniform experience. With the emergence of mobile phones capable of surfing the Internet, this feature has become a drastic limitation. A successful website can be used on desktop, laptop, TV, tablet or mobile devices, regardless of resolution.
Among the many design techniques, this is especially important to satisfy mobile device users. The design must automatically adjust according to the resolution of the device. The elements must be repositioned according to the device and its orientation, in one column, one under the other. The size of the font should be reduced based on the pixel / inch density of the device to remain legible. The images have relative values and are placed to occupy a percentage of the screen area, not having a fixed size.

This menu can be closed by pressing a button that does not change its position when the menu is scrolled. Animations should not obstruct content or make it unusable.

Dynamic elements such as image / news carousels can be controlled by tactile movements.
It’s very important to apply as many design techniques as possible to optimize your website for mobile devices.
