Blog design entails the optimization of the appearance of a blog’s look, branding, feel, functionality, and readability to maximize the audience’s conversion and readership. Through the design, there is a creation of interactive and very friendly design, laying out topics and categories to capture the attention of the targeted audience. This delivery presents a technological-based blog design on opinions on new technologies for computer operations, workstations, and mobile devices. The blog design’s target audience is everyone interested in interacting with new technologies. The blog design is developed to consider that target users may be interested in blogs with a homepage containing a topic and photo section. Through the blog, the audience will also have a chance to interact with a recent technological blog that is relative, relatable, and consistent with users’ interests.
Design features and strategies are very instrumental for a successful blog design. The research work of Strehlow (2021) supposes that its blog design needs to be tailored to the intended purpose or target audience. In addition, since the blog designs are mostly related to information technology, they ought to include a motherboard background or have a DOS outlook. Additionally, and in agreement with reviewed literature of Lloyd (2021), a successful blog needs to be very passionate about its blog topic in order to have a full understanding of all aspects and prospective dynamics involved. The author also alludes that the topic of a blog design needs to be presented together with a photo or an image to capture the attention of a targeted audience. These features are presented by Comeau (2019) in their blog design, in addition to a brief background on each TechCrunch contribution.
The majority of features and strategies will be considered in the blog design under this study. Essentially, the blog design will be created with a logo containing the blog name at the topmost center of the front page, contacts, and a home. In addition, a space is created under the logo section for contents. This space will be followed by different menu options for current topics about the technology of technology categories. Additionally, in creating the blog design, a technological-based background will be considered with select bright colors; blue and green. The design blog incorporates a customized logo and uses Calibri fonts in writing the blog posts. There was an attempt to include a menu pane to enable selection of popular blog links. However, since the design blog to be created is new to the target audience, this idea was dropped.
In sum, the blog design created under this study demonstrated a platform for interacting with new technologies to the audience relative, relatable consistent with users’ interests. The design features considered were obtained from past research works, ending with a very attractive, very passionate blog design that was incorporated with a topic logo containing the blog name at the topmost center of the front page; contacts, and a home and a space for contents, and attractive background to capture the attention of the targeted audience.
