 | Remember
User Goals
Users typically come to a site with a goal in mind. Each link and click should
meet their expectations and lead them toward their goal. |
| Design for
Consistency
Consistency in user interface is the best way to improve your site's
performance. |
| Don't
Overuse Animation
Avoid unnecessary animations. The best animations reinforce the site's goals,
tell a story, or aid in navigation. Repeated animations on text-heavy pages
distract the eye from the message of the page. |
| Use Sound
Sparingly
Sound should enhance your site but not be indispensable. For example, use sound
to indicate that the user has just triggered an event. Remember that sound significantly increases
file size. |
