Blog design was the biggest concern for most of the bloggers today and many of them strive hard to get it right for their site. For beginners it was a hell feeling when they didn't get their design look of their site. So here is something which i want to tell to you all the bloggers, who are worrying about their site design. On seeing the title of this post you might have think that it was a guide for you all how to design blogs and other stuffs. But in contrast this post was just opposite to all your expectations, it was about how to put your blog design worries aside and start working. Still confused, don't worry i have written some tips and advice beneath which will explain you clearly.
WHAT VISITORS LOOK FOR:
"Audience is the king" , this is very well known mantra by every bloggers around the world. So bloggers put in their blood and sweat in improving their site design to please the Audience. But i tell you what, they don't give a damn about your blog/site design. Didn't agree, then let me put this way consider yourself as a Audience looking for some information and surfing around through the internet. You find a site which was pleasing in appearance but with nasty content. What you will do stay their admiring their design or closing it with cursing the author/ site. So the same case applies to your blog/site too, audience never looks up unless your site is loaded with some good quality contents. I know everybody will be looking now with your eyebrows raised but , wait up i didn't finish this yet.
WHERE THE PROBLEM STARTS:
As a blogger everybody knows the need of surfing through sites and collecting data about their niche or their upcoming posts. Most bloggers when going through giant sites ,got attracted to their site and start trying out in their site forgetting that their content was so appealing than the design. In giant sites they have a dedicated team to develop and enhance their sites look and design, but as a blogger you cant do it single handed.
Another case some bloggers have their dream design in their mind and have been wasting time on it always thinking that they are developing their blog. In both cases the result will be waste of time and failure. And last case some bloggers never satisfy with their design, so they keep on changing it and trying out new designs in their blog. Ultimately this also ends up in failure and there is chance of give up blogging too. Didn't agree with me yet, wait up still i got something to say to you.
REQUIREMENTS OF DESIGN:
From the very beginning i have been saying don't waste your time in site design but that doesn't mean you have to ignore it completely. Here are some of the things you should consider in your web design.

REQUIREMENTS OF DESIGN:
From the very beginning i have been saying don't waste your time in site design but that doesn't mean you have to ignore it completely. Here are some of the things you should consider in your web design.
- Make it simple and visible to the audience, your design and color should not make the readers strain to read your content.
- Help them with limited and useful widgets, but never load your page with lots of them. It will slow your site and irritates your visitors.
- I personally suggest you to use light colors for your site, it will add a professional look to your site.
WHAT SHOULD YOU DO:
Make your design simple and clean as far as possible. As a blogger you never get the right design at first time, i can assure you it will get better in time as you start learning about designing slowly in your experience. But never sit hours altering your blog design and trying new things, it consumes time more than that it creates a lot of stress to you. So in alternate turn your focus to your content, the better the content you produce better the traffic you get. More than traffic , better content brings you trusty audience who loves to come back to your site seeking new contents. That's what the real success for every blogger and it will ultimately turn into a professional one.
So adding up the above things, my point to convey was "Every blogger should put more effort in creating quality contents rather than creating attractive designs. I took a long time to convey this but i guess i made my point strongly.
