Anyone who wants to do business on the global platform of the WWW needs a successful website. Design plays a key role in the success or failure of a website. A site that’s clearly laid out, has a strong call to action and encourages the visitor to interact on a personal basis presents an effective ‘shop window’ for any online business. But how can website design encourage your visitors to do more than just press their noses against your virtual windows and actually step inside the website and start buying?

Making your website design appealing

Research by a Canadian university has concluded that we make up our minds about the visual appeal of a website in just 50 milliseconds. The research, published in the journal ‘Behaviour and Information Technology’, was conducted by Gitte Lindgaard of Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada and concluded that the old adage of ‘first impressions count’ was applicable to web design. So it’s clear that to make a website a powerful marketing tool for your business, you really do have to make a good first impression.

Giving the public what they want?

The first consideration before you put electronic pen to graphic’s tablet is what you want your website to achieve. If you’re creating an ecommerce website then that end goal is clear – driving customers towards your checkout with a shopping cart full of products and their credit card details. Structure is all-important in turning as many clicks into cash sales as possible and is an essential ingredient in website design. Structure needs to develop into a roadmap that lays out the contents of the site in a clearly defined pattern that’s easy for the visitor to follow. While you may be using good website design to encourage your visitors into the site, its actual role is to persuade that visitor to do what you want them to do, namely answer your call to action.

Image-conscious…

For years, search engine relied on the inclusion of keywords to allow their algorithms to select sites for listings. While keywords are still an integral part of SEO, good website design is now an SEO concept too. The most recent Google algorithms allow the search engine ‘bots to list pages not just on the quality and relevance of their written content but also on any images included. So rather than going for generic pictures that may look pretty but have absolutely no relevance whatsoever to the site’s subject matter, smart website design now incorporates images into its SEO planning. It also gives human visitors affirmation that your site is relevant to the search term they’ve used to find you, and all within that 50 millisecond window of opportunity.

SEO by design, not by accident…

For several years, search engine optimisation was considered to be a completely separate animal from website design. But times have moved on and today’s web designers have to factor in the relevance of SEO into their creative musings. We’ve already mentioned the use of images as SEO tools, but to build up the traffic flow towards any website that site has to make an appearance on page one of Google. 90% of browsers click on the first Google listing. Anyone who isn’t on page one is losing out on a potentially huge section of the market. So the SEO has to be embedded into the very heart of the website and that means factoring in its importance at the design stage.

So as you can see, designing a website isn’t just a matter of sticking a couple of random pictures up, typing in some text with a few keywords included and then hoping the search engines take pity on you. Good website design is a complex, multi-layered fusion of form, function and good ‘eye-candy’ that grabs your customers and pulls them through the virtual doors. If you’re not sure how to do that then talk to an expert who can help get the visitors flowing in the right direction – towards your site.

There are literally thousands of Free Apps available for your iPad 2 from the App store and many being added daily but the majority of them are worth exactly what you pay for them...nothing. I've spent many hours downloading these Apps hoping to find a little gem only to be disappointed but you just don't know until you try. In among the rubbish however, I have found many which I use often and these are some of them that i would recommend you download. Remember, at the time of writing, these Apps are free but they could have changed by the time you read this. In no particular order, these are my favourites.

Kindle - Amazon's Kindle App. There are over half a million books available at the Kindle Store and you can download many of these for free to read when you want to just chill. If the book is rubbish, simply delete it, you haven't wasted any money. Of course, all the latest blockbusters are also there if you want to buy them, and i love the fact that you can download them from the App store without even leaving your chair and usually for cheaper than the actual paper edition. This is the kind of app that the ipad was made for.

Movies by Flixter. If you're a movie buff like me, you'll love this app. The app figures out where you are and tells you which films are showing at your local cinema. Or, you can pick a film and the app will tell you where and when that film is on. Pick a film and view the trailer, view photos or reviews from the film and add a rating for the film once you've seen it or add a review. Check out when films are coming to the big screen and what the dates are for DVD releases. The app is also on the iPhone but the extra screen size of the iPad improves the experience.

eBay for iPad - Once you have used this app on your iPad, you'll probably not touch eBay in a web browser again. It's efficient and fast, beautifully showing important details and images in the main results view. It enables quickfire sorting and drag based definition of price ranges. It has it's limitations at the moment but eBay promises updates will only improve this experience.

BBC News - I do like to keep up to date with the latest news and sports headlines and this app is the one that I use to do this. Pick a news story and read it, or watch a video about that subject. Alternatively, watch live video from the BBC's 24 hour news channel.

TV Guide for Ipad - Ideal for the couch potatoes among us. If you want to know what's on the TV that night, or in the future, you'll enjoy this app. Choose which channels you want to add to your list and simply scroll up and down the screen to show what are on your chosen channels at any given time. Click on any TV show and it will give you information about it

Facebook - It would appear that everyone uses Facebook these days and the iPad's app allows you to do nearly everything that you can do using the PC. Take photos and share them with your friends, update your status and see what all your friends are up to, message your friends etc. The only problem with this is that you will use this app so much at work, you'll never get any work done.

Epicurious - This app gives you tens of thousands of recipes at your fingertips making it an essential app if you like your cooking or just fancy doing something different. The app even shows you a shopping list that you will need for each recipe. The only downside i can see at the moment is that it shows all the measurements in "metric" and I'm still living in the olden days.

Wikipanion - This app is basically just Wikipedia for the iPad. The app lets you search for anything that you want, click on the links for more info about a subject, look at related info or bookmark entries to look at later. It's a good way of finding out the answers to your queries without having to try and google it, then search through all those pages.

Shazam - Ever heard some song on the radio and wondered "what the heck is that?" or who sings that? This app is the one for you then, simply start the app and it listens to the song and hopefully will tell you what the song actually is, it will even give you the link if you wish to buy it from iTunes. This app is great for those music quizzes, just don't tell anyone you are cheating.

BBC iPlayer - The perfect app if you have missed a BBC programme or want to see it again at a later date. There is something very relaxing about watching TV in bed but even better with your iPad with your WIFI connection. If you have a slower connection, you can always turn the high quality playback off and stream a lesser quality but still watchable version.
