Technical Design

Remember, the site is not for you; it is for the site users. It is essential that site design and content is presented with their needs in mind.
Use a template to keep the design of your site consistent across all pages.
Use cascading stylesheets (CSS) to format your headings and body text.
Ensure that your template is written with well-formed HTML.
Make sure your template design looks as you want it to on all of the most widely-used browsers. For example, it may appear differently in Firefox to Internet Explorer.
Avoid page designs which lead to unnecessary scrolling.
It's best to use "Web safe' colours and to think about colour contrast and colour blindness when creating your pages.
Avoid using pop-ups on University Websites.
