These considerations include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Company branding\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Image placement\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Website message<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Image size<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Company branding and website imagery\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Imagery can be an essential resource for building the visual identity of your company branding or persona. And as such\u00a0 it is crucial that the imagery you opt for aptly reflects and supports your company branding. As part of this, you should consider the type of imagery. From illustration to photography there are a number of different options for your website imagery and you will need to choose the medium that is best suited to your company in general. Watercolour illustrations for example can be perfect for companies with a unique and quirky approach, while for other companies high quality photography is essential for the branding.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Image placement on your website<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a practical consideration, any imagery you use as part of your website design will need to be positioned and placed correctly to achieve the biggest impact. Imagery used above the fold is sure to grab attention while product or service images also need to be well placed on the right website pages.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Website imagery can help deliver your message\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through your website you often want to give a clear message to your potential customers or clients. This can include showing how trustworthy and reliable your company is, or the quality of your products or services. The imagery you choose can help to deliver this message with clarity and can be key to continued online success. As such you consider:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The quality of the image- high quality, professional imagery can give a better impression of your company as well as your products or services.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The type of imagery- different types of imagery can be more effective, delivering a certain type of message, but you can also consider combining imagery types for a more effective result.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Image size for website imagery\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, another practical consideration for your website imagery is the size of the image itself. Using compression tools for your media files can help to dramatically reduce file size, allowing your website to load faster and be more useful. This helps prevent slow website loading speed which can be a number one factor for a large website bounce rate, where your potential customers or clients simply leave, before they have looked at your website.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>For more information or advice, get in touch with the experts today, here at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pumpkinwebdesign.com\/website-designers-manchester\/\">Pumpkin Web Design Manchester.<\/a> Manchester&#8217;s leading web design experts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The visual design of your website is an important consideration to ensure that you achieve the right results.
