I have all of my pages up and running on my web server.
However the one thing that isn't on there and working at the moment is my contact page. If you went on the website right now, you would find a blank page template, looking like all the other pages.
I decided to leave this page until last to finish, because it is vital I get this page designed correctly.
After looking at lots of other contact pages, such as BT and Google, I wanted to have my contact page as simple as possible.
With this in mind, I plan to create my contact page similar to how the text on all the other pages are set out. This way, the form is not too complicated and can be easily filled in without any hassle or brain ache.
Steve Krug has written a book called 'Don't make me think!: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability', which outlines that for a good website, the user shouldn't have to think at all. If they need to get somewhere on the website, the path should be right there in front of them.
This is how I have tried to design my whole website, not just the contact form.
I will finish the contact form now, making sure it is very simple and straightforward.
