Don't Misuse or Overuse Pictures on Your Website

It is true that websites are becoming more and more visually engaging, and using pictures and graphics properly can help improve your site's ability to market your products and services to your potential

customers. However, just like too much text on a website may turn off a visitor to your site, too many pictures, or pictures used poorly, can also be detrimental to your website. Following are some things to keep in mind when using pictures on your site.

The pictures and graphics you use on your website should not detract from the text. They should guide the reader to what you want them to do, whether it is to buy your products, to call your place of business, or some other call to action. Too many pictures can be distracting and can make it hard for visitors to your site to even find the information you want to convey.

Using pictures, graphics, or animations on a site should not only be used because they look “cool” but should support the overall purpose of your website, which should be to market your products and services to potential customers, or to provide information to your visitors.
