Tumblr media
According to research, 38% of people will stop interacting if a website is poorly designed. This means that you should make sure that your website layout sends the right message and answers all your target audience’s questions. 
There are several types of websites that you can go for if you want to establish and improve your online presence in the market. Each one of them is designed to satisfy a specific purpose. So, which one should you go for? How can the right website design and layout help your business boom?
This article will explain the 7 most popular types of websites, their purposes, and features. Keep reading to learn more about them.
7 MOST POPULAR TYPES OF WEBSITES
There are currently more than 1 billion websites on the internet, and the number increases all the time. Some of them are definitely more successful than others, so it’s essential to pick the right website design for your business. 
Today, web development has become easier, so you can just log into a free website builder and have a functioning website. However, this doesn’t mean that you’ll be able to use the website to elevate your online presence. 
You should ask yourself questions like what should my website tell my target audience? How can I use my website design and layout to send a message to my prospects? 
Each type of website has specific features and purposes. We’ll discuss the most popular ones in this section.
1. Business Website
Purpose
Tell your target audience why they should work with you
Features
List of products and services
An About Page to tell the customers about your company
Contact information
A call to action
This is one of the most common website types. The company will share examples of past work and customer feedback and explain how to make an order or contact for more questions. In this type, visual branding is crucial, as the website layout should tell your target audience what your brand is all about. The design should be simple to answer as many questions as possible, making sure that the logo and typography complement the company’s message. Customers should be able to get the information they need without scrolling various pages.

2. eCommerce Website
Purpose
Sell online products and services
Features
High-quality images that show the products and services
Easy to navigate with clear sections
Details about your business, shipment, returns, and refunds should be clearly listed
Secure checkout and transactions
eCommerce websites are quite popular because the company sets up a website to sell its products and services online. Once you have an eCommerce website, you’ll have a functioning online shop that you can use with the physical store to increase your sales. 
There should be a section for customer service and an About Us section that tells your potential customers more about your business. Just like a business website, sticking to a consistent visual branding strategy is extremely important. Moreover, it should be simple so it doesn’t confuse users. 
3. Blog/News Website
Purpose
Provide valuable information about the industry or company
Features
Article lists
Tags for easy navigation
Updated posts
Can lead to an online store
Messages section for more information
The blog or news website should be related to your company’s niche and market, and it should be updated regularly with new posts or the latest news in your industry. The purpose of this website is to deliver valuable content that your target customers will appreciate. Think of what your target customers ask about, how to use your product, and what other products they can use to have a better experience. All these topics can provide excellent content for your blog.
Tumblr media
4. Portfolio Website
Purpose
Display samples of work to attract customers
Features
High-quality images
Work samples
Contact information
Creating a portfolio website involves listing information about past projects to promote someone’s business. It can be used by individuals, especially those who work in a creative field, or by agencies and companies. This type of website can lead to an online shop or just display the contact information that customers need to get to the physical store or to contact the website’s owner. 
It should be easy to navigate and needs consistent updates. Your target audience should see that you’re engaging in successful projects to consider you for an upcoming one. 
5. Service Provider Website
Purpose
Offer an online service
Features
Easy to use
Payment options for subscriptions
This website will work for you if you offer an online service, like converting files to other types, a photo editor, or a grammar checker. The website should be easy to understand, and visitors should be able to access the tool instantly. In most cases, you can offer a limited version of your service that users can try for free. After that, they should be able to pay a subscription to access the tool’s full potential.
6. Landing Page
Purpose
The main part of a marketing campaign that leads to other pages where customers can learn more about your brand
Features
A single call to action
A brief description of the products and services
A clear visual brand
The landing page is a one-page website that your target audience reaches when they click the company’s link. Therefore, the website’s design should stick to the brand’s visual identity and should be simple and to the point. The landing page should work for lead generation, so customers can download an online catalog or learn more about the company’s products through a newsletter.
7. Wiki/Database Website
Purpose
A reference or index that provides a lot of information
Features
Easy search functions
Lots of linked pages
Ability to add comments or edit
This website serves as an index that shows a lot of information. When your target audience clicks any link, they’ll get transferred to another page that shows detailed information about your products or services. A database website can also be accessible to users who can contribute to the added content.

Beware: a new kind of Porn bot just dropped
Tumblr media
It was "sophisticated" enough to use my URL to address me, and it took over a real, but abandoned blog to send this to me.
It should go without saying, but I am gonna say it anyway just to be sure:
DON'T CLICK ON ANY LINKS WHEN YOU GET MESSAGES FROM COMPLETE STRANGERS

every time i say tumblr staff (and tumblr itself let's be real) made social media worse by never punishing harassment, allowing people to get comfortable pushing cancel and callout culture so they could harass and dehumanize anyone (especially minorities) they want without ever having to worry about consequences, an attitude they brought with them to other websites like tiktok and twitter after the 2018 porn ban....
This is what I'm talking about. tumblr staff doesn't give a shit if you're stalked and harassed, but if you're a trans woman posting selfies? instant ban.
tumblr staff has NEVER done anything to protect its users, but now they're actively participating in doing the harm.

The Death Of A Website.
tl;dr click source to see an AU of my blog.
As many of you may not have heard, Cohost has gone read only. The website infamous for "Zero Discoverability" and its users "Not Being Funny." Servers will close down at the end of 2024, if not earlier, being backed up on the Internet Archive before that. Since their user counts were still low after 2 years (about half of all sign ups ever were from people evacuating twitter, which then didn't know how to use the site so most left almost immediately. Kind of hilarious) they didn't feel like anymore money bleeding OR the fact that a staff of only four people being on call 24/7 was worth it anymore.
However,
the people who DID use the site loved it. And they did some genuinely cool things on it, far cooler than anything I ever saw even in the glory days of Tumblr. You know, like Finn and Jake hi-fiving between 2 posts. Stuff like a playable maze, or a fully navigable 3d room you move around in with your mouse entirely within a post. They really did some cool stuff.
There were also a ton of really talented people, people like the composer Lena Raine(Celeste/Minecraft) who loved the site because you could just. Actually talk to people on it! Without an algorithm to boost their posts, the only people who saw it were genuinely looking for it.
Also some of them were just good posters, we did get Pikmin 18 billion and eleven from Cohost after all.
The point is, I think if anyone outside of Cohost actually knew what was being done on Cohost, it would of succeeded. There would of been enough active users for them to invest more. If I knew about all of this I would of been there way more!
But rather than just you blindly believing me, I decided to spend (almost) every hour I would of on Tumblr, on Cohost instead. Clicking that link, or the source, or the link on the source above in the tl;dr, will take you to my Cohost blog. At least while it's still read-only.
You should check it out. I reblogged a lot, but the first page or 2 (every 20 posts, I kept trying to stop but I got sentimental and reblogged more) is pretty much just people's last posts. I'd say give it 3 pages to see if you're interested or not in exploring more of what the website has to offer.
If you've ever wondered what people would post on a dying website,
If you ever wondered what some of the best posts people were making on Cohost that got shared again in its last dying moments were,
If you want some reference for what inside jokes would look like to an outsider,
If you're just bored and need something to scroll through,
if you ever wondered what I would of reblogged on that website if I remembered my password easily enough to log back in easily...
You could think of my blog as a small encapsulation of a small website. There's only 60 pages, including the ones from before the announcement from me just rarely using the site!
I reblogged all kinds of posts. Goodbyes, sarcastic hellos, mourning, long speeches about the spirit of Cohost set to sad music, nothing burgers, inside jokes I didn't understand, The New Garfield, posts I flat out didn't read past the title because they were too long and I just wanted to move on really there's a lot of posts to archive, CSS crimes, stuff I found funny, "Where to find me" and webrings and website posts for people I never knew, Love Honk, reviews for movies and games I never intend to play or watch, 88x31 buttons, music recommendations and history, entire games, signing up for RSS feeds, asks and answers related to other stuff I didn't share on accident, regular memes, Intern Secretary Eggbug, a post that's just an image hosted off-site so it'll update even after readonly, and so on.
(Nothing overtly NSFW. Tag search still works if you want that)
One that I, personally, am sad is gone. That I'm glad I got to see at least in its dying days. That I genuinely hope someone makes another attempt at creating.

THIS IS SO EVIL. if its from the same user then spam reblogs are something unique to this site and can be used for fun or to get a point across. but even worse is if that it targets the same post from different blogs. i follow the blogs i follow for a reason. i LIKE to see their posts. even if ive already seen it from someone else. because they could have something new to say. or i know who likes what. literally dont do this its the worst decision

I didn't mention it when I was on earlier but I'm making a dedicated webpage just for phoenixclan and phoenixclan only because I figured that would be better than just having an open access link to my whole personal website xD It's not done yet but when it is I will switch the links in my pinned post lol
