• Response rate: The response rate of your website becomes optimum with the correct design. A better response rate means a better user experience (UX).
• Search Engine Visibility: Having the right structure gives your website better readability in terms of search engine crawlers. It also enables the passing of a correct intent to the search engines. Being a new website, the best thing that can have is to attain a search engine presence. Better search engine visibility, in turn, means more audience for you.

How to Achieve a Well-Structured Website Design?

• Having discussed the importance of website design and what benefits it can give, now is the time to focus on the ways we can achieve it. Doing what can give my audience a seamless experience? Let us look into some basic but relevant things that we need to cover for a better User Interface –
• Content Placement: Users scan your page before they start reading your page’s content. It becomes highly relevant to place your content on the right blocks to get the maximum visibility to the user. This also provides the user with a clarity of intent. So, it is critical to de-clutter your new website with the unnecessary jargons you desire to preach.
• Mobile Friendliness: For any new website being designed, mobile is a huge factor of consideration. Mobile friendliness is critical, pursuing the fact that audience is majorly drifting from desktop to mobile screens. In fact, it is easier for a user to navigate through a mobile device than a web.
• Flow Across all Screens: More the number of users, more are the screens on which your website will be browsed. Your design needs to be fluid enough to adapt across screens of all shapes and sizes. Considering the fact that the evolution of screens has been immense, from LCD to LED to curve, your website needs to be adaptive to them.
• Sensible Navigation: It is essential to create a design which has logical navigation across the pages. It means that there should be a clear depiction of the purpose the website or its page is sighting to serve. For instance, right from a dedicated header, to pages like ‘About Us’, ‘Contact’ or appropriate call-to-actions (CTAs), logical navigation seems vital.
• Navigational Actions: Navigational actions include options like ‘search’, ‘go to the top’, internal linking etc. It provides your design with a fluent flow across the page. Proper implementation of it can help users access most of your website content easily. Not just that, it helps in knitting the pages together.
• Page Appearance: As a new website, you need to create a first impression on your viewers’ mind. This could be done with an appealing layout. It can comprise of fonts, infographics, color schemes, illustrations, animations etc. A blend of all of this can make your website an immediate favorite for your audience.

A great website structure or design is that which balances business goals to user needs and churns out a perfect layout. Establishing that equilibrium is what you will need to jump ahead in the first lap of your web launch. While it is highly unlikely that you can fit all the bits perfectly on the first turn. You can strive towards perfecting your website as the users come and go.
