| Web: Testing & Evaluation |

- Testing and evaluating your own site can help you spot problems and make appropriate changes.

- It helps to have somebody else evaluate and test the site for you, but you can probably gain some benefit even if you go through the procedure yourself.

arrow Text

- Avoid the use of all CAPITAL LETTERS for body text. OK to use for highlighting or for titles.

- Employ appropriate type families on the basis of your message (i.e., serif vs. san serif)

- Avoid the use of too many font faces on one screen or throughout one site (e.g., arial, helvetica, times, courier)

-Provide for adequate contrast between figure and ground (i.e., text and background)

arrow Colors

- Avoid the use of too many colors on one screen, especially font colors.

- Pay attention to the psychology of color (Holzschlag, 1999). For example: Dominant red colors evoke feelings of passion, aggression, or danger.

Visualizing Your Web Site

Visual Design: Planning how your web site will look.

- What colours will look good together on your site?

- What fonts or styles you will use for the written part of your web pages?

- What graphics and multimedia effects are needed?

- How will all of these elements be combined or arrange into an attractive layout?
