Keeping Your Homepage Clean

There are many benefits of keeping your homepage clean. Some of these benefits are obvious while others aren’t, but really and truly have a cleaner, understandable, and straightforward homepage can really benefit you when you are in the battle of getting visitors and SEO-ing your site.

Okay, now you want to have a website, get some (if not lots) of visitors, and get worldwide recognition and fame for all the hard work, effort, and time you just put into your site.

Well what if all that hard work was really hurting you?

Yes, really some of the effort you put into site can really work against you and give your own site a lower PR (pagerank), a last place on search engine results, and a can lead to many of your visitors leaving your site to never come back again. [Drum Roll of Doom Here, Please]

Reason for the need of a Clean Homepage

You should have a clean front/home page so that people can find what they want to find immediately and/or get the gist of your website in seconds (if not less). I personally won’t stay on a site of more than 15-30 secs if I cannot find what the meaning of the site.

You should not make your visitors go on a wild goose hunt to look for some information that they are looking for, whether it be the purpose of your site or some piece of information they are looking for.

I good example of an unclean homepage is one that has weird aliens for floating cursors trailers, has animated gifs all over the place (because they look cool, right?), and a wild disarray of flash/applets for no particular reason which all get into the way of giving the user a productive, fun, entertaining, and quick way of getting information.

If your site looks anything like the one mentioned above, then you have major fail on your hands there…

If a person leaves your website thinking that you website has no content or value then it is likely that they WON’T return … EVER!!

Making a Clean Homepage

Kind of self-explanatory, but get rid of the clutter, the mess, and the unneeded.

Nothing should on your page without a clear concise purpose. Your visitor shouldn’t have to spend hours trying to figure out the meaning of something.
