Using Web Templates

Templates are very useful and save a lot of time  when you are creating a new layout for your website. However nine times out ten people choose web templates which end up being completely different from the image they had in their minds. So I have put some tips for you take on board when considering which template you are going to use.
The first point is to not use the popular template as it will destroy the image of your website. As it won't be as unique as you wanted it to be there for you will be risking your website in fading behind the scene with the masses. So I will always look for templates which are rare and have a unique angle to them.
Templates are designed and created to save you time and money. The biggest mistake I find is when people get a template and try to customize it beyond recognition. Templates are there for you to input your details and the appropriate title.
However this might sound a bit cliche, but I have come across templates where they have been appropriate to my web page I was designing but it had for example a gardening logo on the top. If you come to this scenario all you need to do is find the appropriate image which relates to the design you're trying to create. But don't forget not to change the whole template as it will lose it uniqueness.
Some people just simply choose the wrong template due to time pressure or they choose the prettiest ones without considering their target audience. Templates are more important than what you thing, as they are the foundation to your page so there for they are the first stepping stone to creating the atmosphere for your website.
Take your time in choosing the right template as it will make your website much more unique and easier to the eye.
