Examples of Good & Bad Web Designs!


Example of two good websites design:


The site is free from irrelevant, unnecessary and distracting information. Information’s are presented in a simple, natural and logical order. Also, the site requires minimal scrolling and clicking. It has all wonderfully realistic detailed photo displays that make me love this website. The careful attention to layout details, visual design, text, and photos are enough to make me love this website. Visual design in this website is perfect. It has good use of color and meaningful graphics. Everything in this website has been well organized and doesn't require lots of research. It’s easy to find and locate everything. The information’s are clear and users can complete common tasks quickly.


The website is easy to navigate no matter how you access it. The website will work on all Internets accessible devices. The Starbucks style guide defines their responsive grid framework, regions, blocks, and more. Information is presented in a simple and clear way. Everything is easy to understand and it’s not time consuming. They can navigate easily to each part of the site that they want. The user does not need to enter the same information more than once. Users can load their Starbucks cards anytime without going through trouble. Meaningful labels, effective background colors and appropriate use of borders and white space help users identify a set of items. They have used a high quality product images which make their website more interesting and it also increase the visual design.

Example of two bad websites designs:


Every time a link is clicked, a full page ad pops up, making navigation frustrating. Flash based menus are too concerned with style (and not enough with ease of navigation) and they can be slow and unresponsive. The search option doesn't work all the time and sometimes it takes so much time to load the page. When watching movies it stops every couple seconds and it comes back up again. The visual design and layout all together are not bad but it can be much better.


The front page menu is fairly small and hard to see and pop up menus are annoying. It takes one minute for the page to load completely. The scrolling news items don’t seem to be complete. The background color is black and is hard to concentrate on the page. The color combinations of text and background make the text hard to read. It doesn't have any white color in the background and also, it has a really distracting background.
