Having great search engine placements is one thing but to create a usable web site environment is just as important. Once the traffic arrives at your web site they must find a web site that is clean, professional, reasonably quick to load and easy to navigate. Ordering or inquiring should be very easy, and the over-all presentation, content and the"look and feel" must inspire their confidence.
The process of developing a usable interface can be a balancing act. Some core elements need to be assessed prior to any actual design work being done. Attention to content creation, search engine friendly design tactics, and the face you put on your design each have to be blended into this usable environment.
Make it easy for your prospects to find the information they need to make an informed decision, and spell out the benefits they can derive from your product or service.
Why Redesign?
There are many reasons for why your site no longer stacks up, including:- Your web site was built on a small budget. Many web sites are launched with a budget inadequate for creating a professional Internet presence.
- Your web site looks “dated”. Technology keeps moving forward, and what looked great a few years ago is now out of step with today’s design standards and shopper expectations.
- Your business has changed. Your business has grown, and your web site is no longer a clear reflection of your business proposition.
- Your competitors are ahead of you. Lead the pack rather than following it. Offer features that represent clear competitive superiority.
- You now better understand your customers. You have developed a deeper understanding of what your customers are looking for and some of the problems that they might have encountered on your site. You need to factor those elements into a redesign that more effectively caters to your market’s expectations.
- Content is difficult or costly to keep fresh. More current web tools allow the site owner to easily update all the content on their web site, keeping it fresh and relevant.
- You need to increase your site’s visibility. If your original site was developed with little consideration to what search engines use for ranking your site, a redesign with new content will raise your site’s search engine rankings.

The W3C is the World Wide Web Consortium and basically, since 1994 the W3C has provided the guidelines by which web sites and web pages should be structured and created. The rules they outline are based on the "best practices" and while web sites don't have to comply to be viewed correctly in Internet Explorer and other popular browsers that cater to incorrect design practices, there are a number of compelling reasons to insure that you or your designer insure that the W3C guidelines are followed and that your site is brought into compliance.
