Invest In A Professional Website Design & Developments in Balito, Durban, Umhlanga, South Africa

Usually your home page will be the first thing someone sees when they land on your responsive website. It is your first chance to draw your viewer in, and sell yourself. Make sure that people pay attention to it.

The most important part of your homepage is the main header image. This is where you make your first impression, and usually where someone will decide if they want to keep scrolling or leave.

The most important thing your header needs to have is a ‘call to action’. Below are two examples of home page headers.

Use a short and to the point headline to catch your customers attention. They then have two call to action buttons to choose from. The ‘success stories’ button is a great addition as it gives social proof that they can do what they are saying they can do.

This next home page header, whilst it looks nice, it doesn’t really draw the viewer in and doesn’t really excite the viewer enough to want to click the ‘view more’ buttons.

A pretty picture as your header image is not enough to make sales! Also, as tempting as it is to create a slideshow of images to get in as much information as you can, your best bet is to use just one image. Assume your audience is time poor, they don’t have time to sit and watch a slide show of images.

Instead, use your one best image as your header image, and then you can break up your home page with further images that are relevant.

Your Branding Is Important

Why is branding important? Because it builds trust with your audience.

A website that doesn’t have clear branding will appear confusing to your audience, and give them the impression that your products/services are low quality.

So you’ve created your professional website design and it looks great on your computer. But how about other devices?

If you aren’t using it already, I would highly recommend installing Google Chrome on your computer. It allows you to see what you website looks like on other drives. You just need to right click anywhere on your website and select ‘inspect’. You then select the device icon from the top menu bar . This button allows you to toggle between desktop view and mobile view. Your Website should be mobile friendly and responsive.
