One of the web designer's greatest challenges is to create a
site distinctive enough to get noticed among the millions of sites
already on the web. This book examines the bond between code,
content and visuals to guide you through the factors that increase
your design's visibility, usability and beauty. Using this
practical advice, even web designers who lack strong artistic
skills can develop super sites that strengthen the message and
stand out from the crowd.
* Most books focus primarily on graphic design principles; this
one shows you how to maximize and prioritize every design decision
to help your site achieve its primary purpose: showcasing your
content and services
* Explores the bond between code, content and visuals to guide
you through the factors that increase your design's visibility,
usability and beauty

elegant, functional layouts that attract visitors and are
user-friendly
Every web designer can benefit from this practical advice on
creating an informative, attractive, easy-to-use site that gets
noticed.
