Notes de l'éditeur
- A user experience comparison across three heavy machinery vendors (of their homepage). A good user experience is necessary to maintain a good brand. A bad experience influences the brand. It is clear that of these three vendors (Cummins, CAT, John Deere) two have not converted their sites to a positive user experience. These large vendors expect their networks of sales representatives and distributors to maintain sales without an improved web experience. Sales reps and distributors are essential, but so is DEVELOPING the online brand. And forget about including social media in the customers experience! Real competitive advantage is possible with a social experience for the manufacturers’ clients, but it is absent
- Positive site experience builds brandNegative site experience reduces brand statue
- I looked at the homepage content of one of the vendors, the red brand. I grouped the homepage into three groups of related information. Then I measured the approximate area of each of these content groupings
- It is striking that the red brand devotes so little to the customers (user) goals. The green (&yellow) brand reverses the amount of space devoted to the ‘users goals’ and ‘about us’ with the red brand. The blue brand (actually black and yellow) also places much less ‘about us’ and more ‘user goals’ space. Developing site structure is all about content and information strategy determining how to organize information so that site users can find it quickly and easily.
- The visual design, the look and feel, the graphic interface it's the first experience the user has with the site. Even before users know if the site is easy to use, they see what it looks like. Robins paper
- Consistency and standards - Users should not have to wonder whether different words, situations, or actions mean the same thing. Follow platform conventions.Group data in consistently meaningful ways to decrease search time.Practice judicious redundancy.Reduce uncertainty; display data in a manner that is clear and obvious.Aesthetic and minimalist design -
