Worth A Thousand Words

How much is attracting a potential customer worth to you?

Most of us have heard the old adage A picture is worth a thousand words many times, and nowhere is it more applicable than in your company website. A website with a mostly white background, too much text, very few pictures or poor quality images tend to lose the viewer's attention quickly.

Catch your viewer's attention with a colourful, attractive website featuring lots of high quality images, and video with decent resolution. It's important to expose your products or services using attractive photos because this reflects on you. Poor quality pictures might be interpreted by viewers as poor quality products or services.

Stock Photos

  • Affordable Web Design Ltd encourages the use of professional looking photos available through a variety of online stock photo websites.
  • We highly recommend buying online stock photos for your main website pictures, and saving your own pictures of your products for photo galleries and such. Once a viewer goes to your product photo gallery, they are ready to see actual product or service photos, and quality becomes less of an issue at that point.
  • In addition, there is a lot more to having great pictures on your website than just uploading a picture. There are picture sizing issues, file size optimization issues, and many other factors that professionals like Affordable Web Design team members know how to deal with for you. Optimizing is the most important, as it strips the file size down so that the picture uploads quickly without losing its sharpness.

We offer logo design to our existing and new web design customers. Our graphic dersigners can create visual concepts to communicate ideas that inspire, inform, and captivate your specific market.

Affordable Web Design Ltd uses professional stock photos to help enhance your website design.
Using images found on Google

It's probably best never to use any photos you find on search engines websites such as Google or Bing for many reasons:

  • Copyright - Google images are not all copyright free. The search engines simply collect images from all websites, so if the original website used a copyrighted picture, you may be inadvertently getting into trouble with the original owners of those pictures. Companies who copyright their images have usually tagged them and can tell when someone is using one of their pictures.
  • Image Sizes - even if a picture is not copyrighted, because Google (among others) get their photos from millions of websites, whatever they show is in the original size used on that original website.
  • Image Quality - keeping in mind that Google images come from every website out there, the probability that someone used a poor quality photo is high, and that poor quality will reflect on you.

Videos

Videos can greatly decrease the speed when your website page loads for viewing, so you need to be very careful in your usage of videos.

  • Speed - videos that have been uploaded to sites like You Tube have embedded software technology that allows for fast downloading.
  • Convenience - uploading to sites like You Tube allow you to simply add a bit of code to your website so that it ties in with the video that is on the You Tube server.
  • Quality - as with photos, if a video is of a poor quality, most people will not want to view it.
