How to Promote Your Website by Focusing on a Page Layout Design that Will Appeal to a Mass Audience

A very large percentage of the internet audience has screen size resolutions of 1024x768 pixels set as their preference in their computer monitors. Why is this such an important factor in promoting your web pages? Because when you actually do start your major site promotion, you need to design your web pages so that when people actually start clicking on your pages, they have a very pleasant first impression with the visual quality of your page layout and design.

If your pages are not optimized for the average person's computer screen, you will have a major uphill battle on your hands with the issue of keeping those initial click-throughs on your site for the length of time that you need them to stick around and buy your product or service.

At last count, only 25% of all web users use 800x600 screen resolutions, so it does not make sense to aim for that audience with your web design. As the flat screens get more common as the years progress, you need to do the research to see if your new pages need to be re-designed for that resolution as well.

This information regarding the most common resolution in most people's computer monitors really just helps bring attention as to what elements are essential in developing great page designs and layouts as opposed to the poor design execution that results in the hard-to-read websites we come across far too frequently these days. The following web design questions describe some of the most important issues that must be confronted and corrected by you before your website promotion campaign can be developed:

ARE YOUR WEB PAGES AESTHETICALLY PLEASING TO THE EYE?

This is a technical question as well as a psychological one. Your images on your web pages should be directly underneath or on top of your pictures to make sure that the viewer is not confused about what caption goes with which picture. If a viewer of your web page cannot figure out this small element of your web design, why should that person continue to stay at your site? He will just click onto a website that does have a much better layout design that he is more familiar with, leaving your poorly-executed web pages in the dust.
