It's All About the First Impression

Sure, we just challenged you to rethink most of the websites you visit daily, but did you actually do it? Subconsciously most of us judge a site within the first few seconds. Our first impressions generally help us make an overall opinion about many things in life including websites.

Once you realize that your first impression will have a barring on your opinion of a website you can then realize the importance of the landing page. The landing page tells us all we need to know about a website. Regardless of the design or content a landing page will dictate how we think about the site and everything it has to offer.

So, when you visit your favorite new sites or bank site what do you think of the landing page? Is the design horrible, can they offer a more user friendly site or are you bored the minute the page loads. Many aspects influence website design and the functions the site has to offer. While you make fun of some of the more ugly sites can you give honest feedback that would help improve the other sites you visit daily? Just a simple question for your Memorial Day weekend! :)
