Website Design Issues

Websites can have different issues in their design which can make them not to the best standard.

• One web design issue is using Font families which can't be loaded on all computers because they need to be installed or come with a specific computer. This then makes the information not readable for the people without the font downloaded.
• Another Issue is the cross browser accesability. web pages have to be able to work on all browsers, some browsers may make parts of the page hidden and unusable, but nowadays most browsers can work them; it is browsers such as internet explorer 6 that cant run even the best of sites propperly.
• Another issue is fluid vs fixed. some websites change to fit the size of the browser that you are using, but then other websites are fixed in one size which means they aren't as compatable as they could be.
• Another issue is the readability of the information, you can get some websites which have coloured fonts that are hard to work out with pictures or other colours behind the font. The information could also work better when it is easier to read and is more appealing to read.
• Another issue is the access speed of the site, some pages could contain too much informtion which needs to be downloaded to be seen. This can make the page load alot slower than other websites and may even crash whilst trying to load it.
• Finally another issue is the consistency of the layout, pages work alot better if the colours are all similary or not too many are clashing; if there are too many fonts it could become confusing to read and harder to understand. it is also better if the layout stays the same mostly throughout the website, otherwise you wouldn't know where the information you need is found.
