What defines Good Web Design?

Is it a state-of-the-art, Flash heavy site that takes a lifetime to load while you wait patiently for the phone number you're searching for to appear? Or is it an image free, text only site that's as eye catching as a page of Braille? Possibly it's the page that appears at the top of the list on a keyword search on the best search engines?

Hurrah for the Clichés

The Cliché "Content is king" is still doing the rounds and, as is often the case for clichés, it's true but then a king doesn't live in a shed and attractive and effective web design won't hinder the delivery of edifying and entertaining content.

Making Web Browsers Web Buyers

The fact of the matter is that opinions about the most important element of creating a great site are as many and varied as web users themselves and it is by identifying those people who are going to be interested in and therefore influenced by your site that is the key.

Getting your Message Across

However, just because you know your audience and know what to say to them doesn't mean they can hear you. You have to consider that search engines don't crawl Flash content; not all people have the latest version of Internet Explorer and many aren't even accessing the web via a PC, they could be using a Mac or a Palm Pilot or any manner of hi-tec, wi-fi doodad. On top of this there are the 25% of regular internet users who use the open-source free Mozilla Browsers and the large number of physically impaired browsers using specialised technology.
