Graphics Go a Long Way

Graphic design might seem like a daunting world, but making sure the graphic elements of your Web site are up-to-date makes a significant impact on your Web site?s effectiveness.

Good graphics, like a logo, high-quality images and photographs, and embedded audio or visual pieces, go a long way when it comes to improving your brand recognition.

Look for graphics that tell the story of your business:

? Your header should include your logo. The colors should coordinate with your logo, and should pull the colors fro the photos you?re using on your front page.

? Front-page images should invite your visitors to learn more about your business. The photo should be composed with warm and exciting colors.

? Be yourself by using photos that reflect the vibe and values of your law firm.

Content Can Make a Difference

When you only have a few seconds to capture the attention of your visitors, make sure that your content gets right to the point. Use words that are compelling and direct. Avoid using filler words that can unnecessarily distract your readers from your services.

A strong call to action uses language that that tells your Web site?s visitors exactly what step you want them to take. To do so, make sure that your menu options and buttons are descriptive and clear.
