What is modern website design?

Modern website design is a contemporary style for building websites that incorporates a simple and clean layout structure and clean typography. This modern design style may use bold colors, but the overall design will be simple and minimalistic.

Modern design will incorporate elements of flat design, but should not be confused with flat design. Flat design is a web design trend that uses no drop shadows or bevels, no gradients, and only solid color. Modern design incorporates flat design, but is more sleek and graceful than flat design. Modern design is sleek and graceful with a contemporary look and designs that feel artistic.

Here are ten things you should be doing to make sure your website is following modern design principles.

The Ten Principles

1. It should be simple to navigate. Modern website design is all about simplicity. The main goal is for the viewer to get information as quickly as possible. This makes your website design user-friendly.
2. It should have a layout that is responsive and mobile friendly which is not only user friendly, but also easy to navigate.
3. It should have a strong design and the right combination of colors. It should also be fully responsive and look great on all sizes of the devices.
4. Some sites have the clutter of too many images, videos and graphics. On the other hand, some sites have too less content, which is equally bad. You need to strike a balance between the two. Your website should have great content, but not too much of it.
5. It must be easily shareable and you should be able to share it on Facebook, Google+ or Twitter with just a click.
6. Your website should have a blog section which you can use to post the latest information about the company or the product or the latest offers and discounts.
7. It should have a mailing list which any interested person can sign up to get the latest updates.
8. It must have clear privacy guidelines and you must make clear what your website will be doing with the information that was given by the user.
9. It should have an easily accessible contact page with a good contact person and number, and email address and address.
10. It should be language friendly and available in many languages so that it can be accessed by the foreign audience too.
