Templates

Templates are often used in web design to save time. Web page templates provide a basic outline of a web page based on the theme of the website.

Knowing how to use a template to add content to a website effectively has become valuable in the web development process

Before creating a template

There are a few things that should be done before work on the template begins:

Organize the materials

Review the vision statement and strategy

Review the mind map

Review the mockup

Consistency in web design

Consistency is a key factor in web design for both visual elements and functionality. Consistency ensures that your website looks coherent and works harmoniously across all its different elements, such as headers, footers, sidebars and navigation bars. It also:

gives your users a more positive experience

enables users to carry out tasks more quickly and efficiently

improves usability and learnability of your website

eliminates pain points and difficult navigation

saves money and time on design

Proofreading Grammar Mistakes on a Website

Some of the options available include Microsoft Word, Grammarly, and After the Deadline. Here's a brief rundown of each resource:

Grammarly— professional content writers across the globe use Grammarly. It proofreads written content and conducts a thorough search for spelling and grammatical errors. Grammarly also scrutinizes punctuation, style, and word choice.

Microsoft Word — For many, Microsoft Word is a standard on their laptop or desktop. It comes with a popular spell-checker tool, and it also checks for grammatical errors. If the content was not written in a Word-friendly document, copy and paste it into a new Word document and run the spelling and grammar check feature.

After the Deadline — This tool works for contextual spell checking, advanced style checking, and intelligent grammar checking. It's available as a plugin for WordPress, OpenOffice, or as an extension for web browsers.
