There are some general principles that need to be considered in any web design.Any art is going to have a variety of styles. There will be no style that is perfect or that is going to appeal to everyone. What is important is to understand and define your style and to match it to the type of website that is being designed. A Mortgage website and the website that promotes a hard rock band are going to have a different style. This is common sense. A Mortgage is a serious investment, and people involved with them are not going to be impressed with flashy or comic websites. This is why the overall style needs to be matched to the purpose of the site.

Another principle of effective web design when a potential customer is going to be viewing the site is ease of use. If a website is unclear and hard to navigate, the average user will simply go elsewhere. It is not likely that many will invest much time in trying to figure out what you are trying to say, or how to get the information they are seeking. Ease of navigation is essential to any commercial website.

People seeking mortgages are not also studying foreign languages. Make sure that your website is not presenting information in one. It is important to carefully explain terms that might be unique to the mortgage field and unclear to an inexperienced visitor to the site. When a visitor is talking to a mortgage broker face to face, he answers only the questions he is asked. Online, this can't be done. Every possible question must be anticipated and answered in advance. FAQ links are understood by the majority of internet users and are essential for the site. Information is the key to successful mortgage broker websites.

It is also necessary to consider search engine optimization in your web design. It does not really matter, ultimately, how well designed any site happens to be if no one ever views it. Contact information is equally important. It will do no good to have millions of hits on a site if no of them are converted into basic customer contacts or leads. Appropriate overall style, easy of navigation, clear and abundant information, search engine optimization, and good contact information are the keys to any web design.
