IDCC 380: Web Design II Spring 2010

IDCC 380 Sites Nicely Designed, 04/10/07

Check this out:

Take a look at some really appealing designs and course work that your classmates submitted for assignment one:

1. Siraj Bilimoria
2. Jason Feldman
3. Brian Gilbreath
4. Josh Mahoney
5. Kimberly O'Connor
6. Robyn Saidi
7. Jennifer Shabshelowitz
8. Laura Tabb

Here are the problem areas that were general:

1. SEO: poor page titles; no meta keywords or descriptions. Be sure to correct these on all pages (except the exercise pages).
2. On your dream site prototype and your IDCC 380 Web site, kill all self-referencing links. If your navigation setup causes you trouble in doing this, let me know.
3. Remember that you are creating a Web; you need to make sure that from any page in the Web your visitor can easily get back home (except the exercise pages; I give you a pass on those).
4. Many of you experienced wrapper problems. Be sure to correct these. Ask if you need some help with this.
5. Provide a signature and a text global navigation bar in the footer of your IDCC 380 site and prototype dream site pages. The footer minimally should include date, time, and contact information. You need not include the footer on exercise pages.
6. Avoid non-informative hyperlinks such as click here.
7. Watch your proofreading. Remember as well to use Shift/F7 in Dreamweaver to check your pages for spelling.
