Reboot the homepage
September 6th, 2006
Usually works in this way: you open the home page of your site and you’re tired of seeing always the same graphic and the same layout. Then you want to do a redesign but this rarely happens, since it requires a lot of time and you don’t have enough.
The question is: does this redesign is really needed? 95% of it doesn’t.
Doing the redesign of your own site requires big efforts both in time and in money terms, since from time to time, when you’re the developer of yourself, you never know when you really done the work. This happens, at least to me, very often. I do a site, then after two or three weeks I would to redesign it since its layout just bored me.
The matter is that many times this work is unneeded and undesidered. It’s not rare to see some very nice and original design disappear after not so much time because the author decided its time to burn the old design and to do another one.
This wordpress.com hosting doesn’t allow to change the css (if you don’t pay a15$ fee), so the problem doesn’t exists for this blog, but exists for many other sites I have.
So, what do you think about this? Is this just a my own problem or it is a wider one?
