Yes, not more than 10 seconds. So, you have just got 10 seconds to make or break your impression in the mind of users. Well, in this era of high-speed connectivity we can’t expect the users to wait for too long.

To tackle this website design mistake incorporate below-mentioned inputs in the

design and development phase:

• Compress the images (without affecting quality)
  •    Use HTML 5 for media support
  •    Effectively optimize the website code
  •    Avoid unnecessary extensions
  •    HTTP requests should be minimum

These small things would be quite effective in terms of quick uploading of your website across various devices.

#3 Too much focus on design

Focusing on designing or we can say the arrangement of various elements on the webpage’s of your website is necessary. However, too much attention on design and less on usability and affectivity part is a common mistake that creeps in at the time of website design and development.

To get hold of this common error try and focus more on the navigability and the user experience part and arrange the elements on the website accordingly. It’s quite obvious that users love smoothly navigable and scalable websites rather than beautifully arranged and poor on usage front websites. So, the mantra is clear to pay more heed to the usability side.

#4 The positioning of the Call to action button

Call to action buttons (CTA’s) are those elements of your website that drive the desired actions from the user. CTA buttons on your website can be any of those signups, add to wishlist, buy now etc that derive the actions for which you were targeting the user.

A quite common mistake in website design is seen in face of poor response to these CTA’s as a result of poor positioning or covering of these CTA’s by an excess of content around them. All these lead to poor response at the revenue generation front.

To tackle these mistakes make sure that there is no excess of content near or CTA’s and the CTA is the sole attention grabber. Also, make sure that your CTA’s are place appropriately on your website so, that visitors get a sight of them in seconds of visiting your webpage.

So, we hope that now since you have got hold of these common website design mistakes and their hacks you would apply them in action.
