Let’s face it, we’re a visual society. The graphics you use on your website are as critical to your success as the actual content, if not more so. We also tend to process information presented visually much quicker and often with a greater understanding that information we must read and comprehend. It’s no surprise that presenting information in charts is a powerful way to convey your message, whether it is the effectiveness of a new product or the results of a research. However, including charts hasn’t always been the easiest task.

You will ensure the navigation functions, forms submit correctly, and the site behaves correctly on all browsers. While this is an excellent start, this approach neglects a critical variable: your users. Do you know the types of users your site attracts? If so, do you understand how these users expect to interact with your site?
