Of course, it is hard to scale your stunning business model without having global exposure through the web. Even if you tried to scale it, there are a bunch of competition factors out there.
So, let's dive into how you can resolve this issue with Framerstacks. Nothing is complicated, but it is easier to ship your website without compromising professionalism.
1. The right platform
Undoubtedly, this is a combination of AI and tech-driven era. Thousands of web development tools are available in the marketplace. Some of them require coding skills whereas some of them aren't.
Overall, the majority of them provide no-code web development functionality, which is easier to handle for beginners who do not know coding at all.
So, it is highly recommended to use Framer as your web design partner to ship your website lightning fast. Not only due to its no-code flexibility, but it helps you to find aesthetic designs inside the marketplace, edit the way you wish to, and publish your projects without compromising professionalism and minimalism.
2. Optimization
The responsiveness of your website matters.
Of course, we need to consider all of our web page visitors. People might access to the website through different screen aspect ratios. The vast majority of the traffic comes from mobile devices and desktop devices as well.
However, you also need to consider tablet users as well. If you lack, your website may perform very poor for tablet device users. Inside the Framer canvas, you can normally create three different breakpoints to optimize your page contents for all devices.
Nonetheless, if you wish to optimize your website content for much larger screen sizes, you can also create custom breakpoints. The Framer canvas is infinite and it's your choice to choose the way you want to scale your website. Big or small, no matter…
3. Design system
Right after the setup process of breakpoint arrangements, it is the best practice to mold up a well visual captive color and typographic design system.
This speeds up your design process and contributes a decent consistency across your project. For brand identity, the design system is an inevitable factor. You can decide to choose the right typography stylings as well as color combinations.
Framer plugins are highly recommended for picking the color sets and typographic stylings.
4. Layout & styling
Arrangement of everything in a tidy manner ensures your design's professionalism and keeps an improved visual hierarchy. Nobody likes a clumsy or unorganized design practice.
To practice the best, we suggest you to always use Relative positioning instead of using Absolute positioning. Of course, you can try all other positionings based on the circumstances.
However, Relative positioning gives you the whim to design like PRO. It is so handy to use padding, spacing and even maintaining correct layer or section alignments.
Moreover, setting a MAX width functionality also keeps your design away from breaking certain screen sizes.
5. SEO optimization
It's pretty simple to manage the optimization steps with Framer's area labelling feature. All you need to wrap the content in the appropriate container and assign the right tag.
For instance, in the most cases the stacks and cards are tagged with DIV and the main sections labelled as SECTION.
Similarly, the normal text formats are automatically set to P tag (Paragraph).
Literally, the optimization process is simple when comes to Framer.com, and the overall performance wise, Framer stands out from competitors.
