Web Site Design & First Impressions 2/9/2016

For their research, Sheng and Dahal enlisted 20 Missouri S&T students to view screenshots, or static images, of the main websites from 25 law schools in the U.S. After each viewing of a website, Sheng and Dahal asked students to rate sites based on aesthetics, visual appeal and other design factors.Through this research, Sheng and Dahal found that seven sections of the reviewed websites attracted the most interest from users. Like the institution’s logo, main navigation menu, search box, site’s main image, bottom of the website, site’s written content, site’s social networking links. Compared to my list most of the information here can be found on my list. The article would impact the design of my website, I would carefully think on how i would design the sections that attracted the participants.
