Diluting web Design in newtownabbey by overchanging concepts

Design in it's basic form

Many people define web design in different ways and can attribute many concepts to their beliefs on the Design council website it defines it simply as:

"Design is what links creativity and innovation. It shapes ideas to become practical and attractive propositions for users or customers. Design may be described as creativity deployed to a specific end.’ - The Design Council

There is also how web designers define this concept:

"Design is taking the key concepts in a clients mind and developing the idea into an example prior to launch that meets the specific requirements of that client."

Diluting the concept

We as web design gurus if you will will always pitch forward our best concepts and ideas based around your idea or concept, all too often we allow many changes to be made to this concept resulting in a website that no longer resembles the design we created.

Now don't get me wrong it is good to know your own mind and tohave your design completed the way you want, it is also important to remember if the chance refusal by a designer to change something happens then dont' dismay as they are doing it for a reason as what they don't want for you if they are a good designer is your site to be diluted or in laymans terms not to resemble or in any way look like the original design.

What does that mean?

Diluting a web design means very simply making so many changes that the design can no longer be anything closely resembling what it originally was or function seo wise or asthetically wise perform as intended.

We as Web Designers Belfast, love eye cathcing sites or sites that perform to their full potential, we don't mind changes only if they are warranted or required. Changing too many key aspects of your design can result in it's performance being affected like SEO, Design, Speed etc.

Changes are good

Changes can be quite good if there is a concept that will help a site perform better and most designers or agencies will embrace a change like this, but one has to be wary not to apply too many.

In Conclusion

Web design is a key aspect of your online presence and and can be the single most pleasing aspect of your business, always remeber that the designer is in touch mostly with what works online and what does not so don't be offended if he/she refuses to make desired changes to a design.
