When making a website it is important to keep visitors returning to your website. The best way to achieve this is through the content on your website. Make sure the website content is engaging and updated regularly. Basically keep the website fresh.
Another way to keep a website fresh is through its design. Now, obviously you don’t want to keep re-designing your website but the good news is, you don’t have to. There are subtle techniques that you can utilise to strike a chord with your website visitors.
One method is to code the website to work out the time of day it is and then display a relevant background image. So, you could have four settings that the website would recognise. Namely “sunrise”, “sunset”, “day”, and “night”. For each of these four states you would have a background image created. Then the website would work out which of the four settings the current time of day falls within and it would then display the relevant background image. So if a visitor visits a website at 22:00 then the website would display the “night” background image.
Website visitors like little nuances like this as it makes a site more original and engaging and it is worthwhile for a webmaster to do as it doesn’t take much time.
Allow us to show you a very simply example of how this can be achieved. We have produced a simple example for you over at the following link, take a look: http://www.panoconsulting.co.uk/demo/time-sensitive-websites/
We won’t bore you with the science behind how it is achieved but when utilised it effectively produces a time sensitive website.
