The Index page and Website navigation

 
The Index page is the first page on a website and often the first impression a visitor will have of you. It provides an index to the set of pages which form your web site. More importantly, it is your "shop front" in the marketplace that is the World Wide Web.

Visitors to your attractive web site need to be able to easily find their way around. This is achieved by means of consistent, understandable links which are the "doors" into your shop and by avoiding the use of "Mystery Meat" navigation.

These links will enable easy navigation to and from various sections, such as

  • About your business. This section could include such items as a mission statement, the history of your business, the people behind your business, a philosophy of how you conduct business etc., Here you can sell the customer on why they should business with you rather than your competitor.

  • Products. Here you can use photos, and text to sell the features, advantages and benefits to customers of your products and services. You can also show applications, examples and data sheets. You can use this to deliver a cost-effective online catalogue to your customers.

  • Contact Information. This can include information on how to order goods, terms and conditions, privacy policy, testimonials from satisfied customers etc., It could incorporate various online forms or, on more sophisticated sites, even a means to purchase goods directly through the web site.

  • Technical Support. Some businesses may wish to provide technical information, specifications, data sheets, frequently asked questions, diagrams and part lists, troubleshooting guides etc.,

  • Service Section. This is usually aimed at potential customers and provides free interesting information that will keep them coming back for updates. It may be news about your industry, of a related field, or expert advice. Anything genuinely of interest which will draw the crowds of customers to "shop front" again and again.

  • News Section. This is where you can place breaking news, updates or allow customers to subscribe to your newsletter.

At Hindsight I T Solutions we aim to give an overall look to your web site which is graphically balanced, informative and pleasing.
