4 steps to create a style guide for your SME web design
- Define your buyer persona.
who is your target audience? This is an important step that many companies overlook and that you should not overlook. Think about which group of people might be interested in the content, product or service you are going to offer and who you would like to consume it. What are their objectives, concerns, circumstances and needs? Where do they look for information? What kind of content do they read? It is important to know. Of course, do not make the mistake of covering all types of audiences, as the saying goes that he who covers a lot, covers little, is a tight squeeze.
- Choose fonts.
Do it taking into account the type of business, the brand values that identify you, your philosophy... There are thousands of fonts, so it is easy to get lost and not know which one to choose when you start browsing them. We recommend that you do not use more than two (one for the header and another for the texts of the page). Whatever option you choose, make sure it is legible. This is exactly what the most optimised and valued websites by Google do.
- Now it's time to think about colour.
Once you know who your potential audience is, it will be much easier to choose the most appropriate colours. At the very most, we recommend you choose 4. Don't make weird mixes and use tools to create combinations that work. You have to feel comfortable with them.
- Define a style for your images.
They should represent you and your business, with a well-defined tone and spirit, reflecting coherence through the pores. Here you must take into account the colour palette and the typography you have chosen.
tACHÁN! You already have your own style guide fresh out of the oven.
