[gossip Internet vi] lose face, make good use of the website
For a long time, we have added to the face of love, this is also reflected in our website planning and design and operation.
I often see a personal site not only has a long home, gorgeous design, and some also made a multilingual version, but in many cases, in addition to Simplified Chinese, the remaining 10 more languages are empty chain. Many sites in the traffic is very small, but the initiative to join a large number of commercial advertising (of course, businesses will certainly not pay), to the time to prop up face, so that their more like commercial stations.
Many rely on stationmaster one person prop up of the site but often avoid this point, and use "we" instead. I do not think that this is cheating, on the contrary, it is a personal webmaster to their own talent of the negation and deep in the inner inferiority.
To be a personal station friends, we do not have to inferiority, there is no need to face and lost the "lining."
Some people say that WEB2.0 make the site more humane, more grassroots, but we in the planning and production site will have how many times to consider "good" rather than "good-looking" it?
There are few large domestic forums with gorgeous design, even two of HTML editors are not available, and the UBB button is very limited. But because of this, they can be suitable for more people, so that more people feel useful.
The flyer (BT watcher) once let their home page changed "information rich", but finally they found the problem, so now the fkee.com home only a search box left.
Flickr does not have a Chinese version, but I think even if you have a poor English base, it is not too much trouble to use this site, because there is very little other information on the page except what you need, even if it is a redundant link.
Many foreign sites on the home page will be the Information search box or information directory placed in a prominent position, and the specific information does not appear on the home page. This may not seem like the "atmosphere", but for users it's easier for them to get what they want.
......
There is a problem: in many domestic sites, when a visitor needs 1000 bytes of information, it has to download a few m of information, including a large number of layout pictures, pure and beautiful HTML (XHTML) code, CSS style information, not related to the "relevant information" and the audience does not match the spam ads.
In the process of finding information, your visitors need to click a few clicks and load a few new pages, and how many of them are not needed.
Do you have the same problem against your site?
If visitors simply say "nice" to your site without getting the information they need, or the process of getting information is painful, they probably won't come again. If you come back, you're probably the same site producer who wants to steal the design style that you didn't succeed in.
In the past we have been to foreign large sites or large companies of the site page short, landscaping problems puzzled, many sites even center do not bother to do. But do we find that we will visit this site more than once, for the simple reason that:
There are the services we need, that site is the best use!
Do a good job of the site, in addition to what the user needs, the best do not give him anything, unless it is for the sake of profit and added ads.
