3 ELEMENTS THAT WORK FROM THE YALE STYLE GUIDE

http://www.webstyleguide.com/interface/index.html

Although there are many elements that make a website user-friendly, accessibly, and generally a good website, there are three elements alluded to in the Yale Style Guide. These three that I would like to emphasize in my websites are website design and organization, typography, and accessibility.

Primarily, anyone who wants to design a website must think about their audience and their needs in particular. There is an unspoken contract between the designer/author, and the audience. The other element may seem obvious. But, I think that typography is important as it is the element that communicates your content to the reader. The final element is accessibility. By keeping user accessibility in mind when creating your website, you ensure that more users with various hardware and connectivity can actually access your page.
