In a website design, the header is an important part. A visitor’s attention is easily drawn to this portion as he enters a site. From this part of the site one tries to conjure the purpose of the site and what it is all about. A web designer should take special care while designing a header of a site.

While designing a site it is important to pay ample attention to its header. A designer may get engrossed with arranging the site content but for that the header design should not be neglected. User friendliness is maintained while designing a site. A well designed header of a site only aids to the user friendliness.

Often a header design incorporates a lot of color. Too much use of color and graphics in a header design often hide the actual message that is meant for the site visitors. The message conveyed through a website header design should be presented clearly and it should be easy to find.

While designing a header for a website, it can be made big enough so that the site visitors easily notice it. If the message of the site can be put up in a clear and bigger way then it is better for the business. It will be also convenient for the visitors to find out about the service provider or the owner of the site.

The top left corner of a website design is an important part. It is not advisable to put a menu above the header of a website. It would be better to put a logo of the organization or business on the top left hand corner. By this the site visitors will be more familiarized with the business which is not possible if only a site menu is shown to them.
