Web design work should always be done locally. When designing a website, all the development work should be done on a local server installed on your computer. That way, the web design production time is greatly reduced and you can fully test your work locally.
When you are completely done developing your website project, the migration to the live server is seamless. Here are the simple steps to install a local server on your PC to easily design websites.
Here, at Noam Design, we are constantly contributing to the web design world community and we’ve often pioneered new practices and innovative concepts within the industry. What we call ‘Load Sequencing’ and ‘Content Flushing’ are two ways to tremendously enhance the user experience for websites and web applications that are rich in design and/or features. These concepts allow for the almost instantaneous fetching of web content to the user, while other elements of the website or web application are seamlessly loading.
In today’s internet browsing experience, there is nothing more frustrating and outdated than waiting for a web page to load. We believe that when you go to a website, you shouldn’t have to wait for the site’s content to load, but rather you should be able to view relevant content right away – or at least be entertained while the main content of the page is loading. In other words, some web content should be fetched to the user immediately. For simple, light weight websites, the question may not be as critical. But for websites and web applications that are rich in features and/or design, it’s of the utmost importance. Especially given that more than 80% of all internet use is spent on rich web applications! Web based emailing and chatting, social networking, and video browsing, etc are just a few examples. (more…)
Web Statistics are very important for businesses, website owners, and web design companies. Which Web Browser is the most used? Internet Explorer? Firefox? Which are the most common browsers? The latest known browser statistics are shown below (USA & Canada): (more…)
JavaScript Statistics are of the utmost importance for rich websites and web applications. As of today, statistics show that more than 98% of users have JavaScript. The remaining 2% represent users who turn the scripting off or use a browser that doesn’t support JavaScript (some mobile phones).
Flash Statistics are very surprising! They show that more than 80% of the users update their flash player within 6 months of the release. These statistics are the official Adobe Flash Statistics for the US and Canada:

Operating System Statistics are very important for Software developers, including Web developers. The statistics below show that Windows XP is the most popular operating system. In total, the windows family counts for over 90% of all operating systems! The next competitor is the Mac operating system with a little more than 5%.
Screen resolution statistics are very important. When designing a website, it is a good idea for a web designer to make the design fit within a 1024px screen width (so about 1000px for the actual site design). Below are the latest known screen resolution statistics (US & Canada). What you can read from the web statistics below is that the big majority of users are using a display with 1024 pixels or more.
