Sign into your accountThe Header: Real Estate Website Theme Design Series, Part One
March 22 2013
We have designed a ton of real estate websites; nearly 1,000 to date. Every one of them began with a comprehensive Design Interview between client and the Real Estate Tomato creative staff. Each interview has us covering, in detail, several integral elements of the custom real estate website.
This multi-part blog series is an exhaustive overview of each of those elements.
Part One: The Header
It is my opinion that the header (the uppermost module) should be clean, direct, conspicuous, and expected.
Typical elements we expect to be included in the header:
- Your brand/logo/slogan
- Your most necessary contact info (name, phone)
Additional elements that are commonly included:
- Headshot
- Company logo
- Ulterior navigation (home, about, contact, login)
- Social media icons
- Imagery (collage, hero image, slideshow)
- A must-see call-to-action
- Site content search
