  • Hi. First I would ask you if you want to learn to code this yourself, use a theme that you can modify to fit your content, use a website builder or, have someone else do it for you. Thats what you have to ask yourself.

    Then, in answer to your question, if you picked any of the first thee choices, I would say (A.) study the code for the sites that you like the design of. View source in your browser and see how it’s laid out and what kind of framework that is used.

    If you don’t want to, or are not ready to, code it yourself entirely, then you could find a theme framework that is similar to what you like and place your content in it. If you do that , see (A.) in the previous paragraph.

    For a website builder, same as above,

    If you want someone else to build it, Be clear in your communication and provide them examples to show them what you want the end product to look like.
    Hope that this helps.

    If you design for mobiles first, you’re more likely to arrive at a clean, minimal design. This article presents some important mobile design concepts:

    Thanks buddy, but is there any rules that I should use to get a clean design for all users

    What is “clean” is an aesthetic judgement, there are no hard and fast rules to achieve it. “Keep it simple” is a good guideline though. Avoid too many elements, colors, fonts, etc. Using existing sites that you like as inspiration for your own design is a good approach. Not copy mind you, inspiration. As you design, keep asking yourself “Do I really need to add this? Can it be omitted? OTOH, you don’t want the site to be so austere that it’s boring and unattractive. It has to have enough content to be engaging and informative.

    You both got me thinking back to the days of html 4 and I asked myself this question:

    The internet has evolved so much from those days, but what are some constants that remain true and likely will into the future? For that I think we can do ourselves good by standing on the shoulders of those who were original influencers of the development of the web.

    For the validity of that approach, look around at other media and applications of design from all areas: Print, TV commercials, car design and the list goes on and on. All influenced by what can and should be done to convey information visually and efficiently. Look to the masters of design in all fields, throughout history, and you will find inspiration.

    That said. you’ve inspired me to revisit and explore the following sources that have credibility and continue to evolve and be influential in the areas of web design and best practices. You might also find some help here.

    Check these out:

    A List Apart Has evolved and grown from it’s origins as a design “Guru”

    Jacob Nielson has credibility and longevity and continues to evolve

    And finally you can learn a lot from things that are bad or don’t work
