Web Design 103: Content Management


NB: You are advised to read Website Design 101 and 102 in this blog. Also, the requirement gathering phase on the “moving from programming to software development as well”
Many website designers have always struggled with the correct management of contents. Concluding the technology analysis gives you the platform to move into the designs and expectedly the use of various content that will give the interface and website usage the feel that users will appreciate.
This aspect is what display professionalism and the overall look and feel effect that distinguishes your website. The content of a website include every bit of information, image, video, widget and others that make the website.  Designing a very good website require detail and uttermost attention in managing the content.  Content define a website and the proper management is the true mark of professionalism.
Managing content starts from the layout of the web pages. The layout technically implies how the web pages are divided. It is very difficult to define this as website designers have shaped the layout in various ways as ingenuity hold sway in this aspect. It is ideal that relevant and standardized layout is defined in order to effectively manage the content.
The next content management aspect is the definition of the web theme. The web theme defines the uniform feature of the website through the reflection of the development purpose based on the continuity of design elements.  Your theme will guide the use of the contents including movies, colour usage, text font and size, graphics effect and other elements on the website.
I will like to talk about colour management. Effective management of colour is imperative for website design. The colour combination and the use of different shades of colour should be minded in the course of designing of websites. The use of colour in text, designs and background should be blended to give an excellent impression for users. It should also be noted that the use of movies and heavy images should be sparingly used as it affects the overall loading time and accessibility of websites.

I admit this article might not provide all the bits required for proficiency in content management. For further enlightenment on this particular article, you can contact through pelumiapantaku@gmail.com
