Top 5 things we’ve learnt
and ways to turn this to your advantage
#1

Google generation
Flighty, is the best way to
describe their behaviour
They show a strong tendency towards shallow horizontal ‘flicking’ behaviour
Make the pictures bigger and cut the
text by half
Report: Google generation: myth vs. reality?
 They are expert searchers
 They think everything is on the web (and it’s all free)
 They do not respect intellectual property
 They are the ‘cut-and-paste’ generation
 They have zero tolerance for delay and their information needs must be
fulfilled immediately
 They prefer interactive systems and are turning away from being passive
users of content
 They find their peers more credible as information sources than authority
figures
 They multitask in all areas of their lives

Everybody is becoming more like the Google
generation

Only 10% of your users come
in to your website via the
homepage
on average around 70% of design effort is focused on the homepage
•Design your article page first
•Give clear sign posting to other lovely things on
your website from the bottom of every article
Give people a place to go from the bottom of the page

Accessibility is not about
disability
It’s about your website working everywhere for anyone
Design for accessibility and
everything will follow
4.7 (p39): “From 1st October 1999 a service provider has to take reasonable
steps to change a practice which makes it unreasonably difficult for disabled
people to make use of its services.”
Accessibility & the law

Browse, not search is the best
way to help users find stuff
Search is hard to get right and is mostly a fall-back option
Put a list of all your stuff where it can
be seen
Search is a last resort

  1. You can increase sales on your site as much as 225% by offering sufficient product information to your customers at the time they need it. One way to do this is to develop product lists that don 稚 require shoppers to bounce back-and-forth between the list and individual product pages.
