This is a place where your visitor gets an idea of your brand and begins their journey through your well-built website.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why your header is so very important? It is basically your greeting and handshake that starts your new relationship off. It is the first website part the people see and what makes them decide to stay or not.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bad header navigation (desktop\/mobile) makes people leave the website. The header has a significant impact on SEO as these are where the most important links and messages placed. A responsive header design increases website performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Website_Header_Size\"><\/span><strong>Website Header Size<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even with the ever-changing screen size across multiple devices, there is still one, most popular, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">website header size<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Regarding the perfect size, most feel that 1024px width is fine, though there are header sizes that range from 1024px all the way to 1920px. These bigger widths are good for high-resolution screens.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Make_a_Website_Header\"><\/span><strong>How to Make a Website Header<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are a few key tips that you should use when building your website header (and there are more if you are going to script in HTML).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No matter what each business or niche of service you choose, it should have its own website and in turn, each should have its own unique header.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>\u00a0#1. Consider Navigation Beforehand<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Think about what you want the website visitor to do the most. Then, make sure that the navigation and access to those items are forefronts. As an example, if you are a high-end boutique store that works with tailoring you may want to add a schedule button there to promote this aspect of your business.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>#2. Choose a Good Font<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The font does matter! Or fonts, we suggest using at least two for good topographic contrast and visual interest. You the font choices that are clear to read and work with the overall brand identity you are trying to craft.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>#3. Use High-resolution Images<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And not just high-quality. The images should also reflect the brand message, your concept, the products or services you intend to offer. For example, if it&#8217;s a portfolio website, a bright picture of you with a contrasting background could do the trick.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>#4. Consider Using a Shrinking Header<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There&#8217;s an option to make the header shrink when your visitor scrolls. This keeps all the pertinent information handy no matter what. Utilizing some tricks like color change on the scroll and leaving the navigation available anywhere on the page you may improve visitor retention.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>#5. Express Your Brand Identity<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everything from the logo to the color pallet should express your brand identity, be bright and engaging. This means choosing the right layout that works with your logo as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>#6. Use Effects to Engage the Visitors<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can utilize the rollover color and other effects to keep your visitors engaged and visually stimulated. it is also a good way to indicate your company\u2019s overall image.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for the technical part, there are a few key points that should be in every website header and they include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Logo &amp; Brand Identity<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Navigation\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Page Title<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Search Bar<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shopping Cart<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">User Profile Link<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Login\/Logout<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Notifications<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CTA\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contacts<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/app.weblium.com\/signup?utm_source=en_blog&amp;utm_medium=article&amp;utm_campaign=banner_article\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-20566\" src=\"https:\/\/${domain}\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2.2-800x178.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"178\" srcset=\"https:\/\/${domain}\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2.2-800x178.png 800w, https:\/\/${domain}\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2.2-320x71.png 320w, https:\/\/${domain}\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2.2-768x171.png 768w, https:\/\/${domain}\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2.2-418x93.png 418w, https:\/\/${domain}\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2.2-1080x240.png 1080w, https:\/\/${domain}\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/2.2.png 1518w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tutorial_header_settings\"><\/span><strong>Tutorial: h<\/strong><strong>eader settings<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In this video, you&#8217;ll learn the main components of a good header.
