Today's powerful and effective design tools make designing an attractive Web site quick and easy. But, designing a site that works for your users is still as challenging as ever. Web Usability Handbook, Second Edition is written to teach designers and usability specialists the essential methodologies and tools required to understand user needs, design for them accordingly, and empirically test usability. This completely updated edition surveys current research and applies it to the principles of design. It emphasizes the fact that usability shouldn't be an afterthought, but integrated throughout the entire design and production cycle. With the hands-on guidance and examples provided throughout the book, designers will find practical tools to make certain that their site is as effective and user-friendly as possible. They'll learn to create sites that are free of navigation "dead ends," difficult to use interfaces, and other barriers to usability. They will also learn how to evaluate a Web site for usability defects in a cost-effective manner. All of the principles of User Centered Design (UCD) are covered along with critical Human Factors, and guidelines for implementing a test plan. Whether a new usability specialist or a Web designer seeking guidance, users will find the practical information that can be applied to their own site today.
