Introduction
When designing blogs I noticed there are a few different design elements that I have to take into account every time. I have broken these different design elements into nine different parts. The more attention you give to each part, the better your overall blog design will be.
- Header
- Content Area
- Primary Navigation
- Secondary Navigation
- Headlines
- Comments
- Post’s Footer
- Footer
- Advertisements
1. Header
The header is the first thing most visitors see when they come to your blog and it is also one of the most important. It is important for branding and making your blog stand out apart from the millions of other blogs. It is important that the header be unique so that is is memorable. This is why headers are usually given the most attention to in blog design, even by people who don’t do anything else with their blog design.
Lots of different types of headers work, but no matter what style you design your header in it is important to make your header design POP.
Examples of great blog headers:
1. Octwelve
Octwelve is a good example of using a cute character in the header to make it very distinct from other blogs. It also does a good job of quickly telling you what the blog is about in the header.
2. Cult foo
I like how Cultfoo’s header just breaks the boundaries of rounded corners and rectangles. This creates a very distinct and appealing header for a blog.
3. Darkmotion
I am a big fan of darkmotion’s style as you can tell if you have read my other posts. And one of its strong points is its very cool header design. It is just so playful and really draws me in.
How to make your header design great for your blog:
1. The first element in a blog design that I like to design is the header, because I feel that it sets the tone for the rest of the blog design. So I recommend to decide on what message you want to convey, title, and taglines before getting to work in photoshop. This will prevent a lot of headaches and changes down the road.
2. While there are many different ways you can design a header for you blog, it is important to remember to prioritize the communication of the purpose of your blog above everything else. A reader needs to be informed as quick as possible as to what the purpose of your blog is.
3. Get creative and don’t be afraid to try different things until you find a header design that works for your blog. This is generally the first thing people see when they come to your blog so make it memorable.
2. Content Area
The content area is where your readers will spend most of their time when they are on your blog. It is important to make sure that this area is easy to read and have minimal distractions. It is also important to create a well established hierarchy where the different elements of your design gets less emphasis as your go down.
Examples of great content area:
1. Simplebits
Simplebits’ content design is easy to read and the links pop just enough to be noticed, but not too much to be distracting. It has a very soft look to it.
2. We Love WP
One of the biggest problems with dark designs is that it is hard to read, but when done right it can work very well. WeLoveWP uses a soft light brown that doesn’t contrast too much with the dark background so it is easy to read.
I like the combination of color and dotted underlines for the links used here.
How to design a great content area:
1. Build a hierarchy that establishes a flow where there is less emphasis as it goes down in the list. For example, headings should pop more than links and bold texts.
2. Keep the design of the content consistent. This lets the reader know that they are reading information that are closely related to each other due to their similarity.
3. When styling links, make sure that they pop out enough to call attention to it, but not so much that it is distracting when reading.
3. Primary Navigation
The primary navigation is the set of links that lead to different areas of your blog. This is usually placed on the top near the header, but it doesn’t need to be. It is good practice to place it near the header though, because that is where most users will expect them and look for them.
Examples of great primary navigation:
1. A list apart
A List Apart is one of the best examples of good primary navigation design on the top.
2. Mindtwitch
Mindtwitch is a good example of using texture to make the primary navigation pop out more.
3. Jogger
Jogger’s primary navigation is simple and easy to do, but it serves its purpose and has been integrated into the design just as well.
How to design a great primary navigation:
1. Keep the amount of primary navigation links low. There is no hard number for the max amount of primary navigation links, but I would recommend under 6 or 7.
2. Primary navigation links should be reserved for major areas of your blog that you want the reader to have access to on every single page of your blog. If they don’t need it on every page, consider putting the link in your secondary navigation area.
3. Examples of common primary navigation links are contact and about. What your specific primary navigation links would be depends on how you structure your blog and what you want people to pay attention to.
4. Secondary Navigation
The secondary navigation is the set of links that lead to different sections of your blog. This usually comes in the form of some sidebar. Secondary navigation is important because it gives your readers easy access to other parts of your blog that the primary navigation does not cover.
Good links to put in your secondary navigation are popular posts, links to series pages, and other items of interest that you want your readers to have quick access to from anywhere.
Examples of great secondary navigation designs:
1. Elitistsnob
I like how each section in the sidebar is given its own clear area so it is easy to read and find what you are looking for.
2. Mancub
I like how the sidebar just seems to slide out from the content and is clearly separated from the content.
Design Disease uses shades of orange here in order separate the different sections of the sidebar very well.
How to design a great secondary navigation for your blog:
1. Just as with the primary navigation, only include necessary links and do not fill it with random links for no reason.
2. Divide the secondary navigation into different clear areas for different types of links. This will help keep the secondary navigation organized and easy to use.
3. Do not clutter your secondary navigation with unnecessary widgets that doesn’t really help the reader find what they are looking for. That calendar might look cool, but it doesn’t really help anyone.
5. Headlines
The purpose of headlines is to draw your readers in and make them want to read the rest of your blog’s post. The best way to do this is by making your headlines pop out. This can be done in a variety of ways so get creative.
Examples of great headline designs on blogs:
1. Henry Jones
Henry Jones’ blog is an example of a very simple headline design yet it does what it is suppose to do and that is to draw the user’s attention to it. Henry also uses cute icons to draw the user’s attention to the date and comments.
This is a great example of what you can do with pretty much the font and color to make a creative and interesting headline for a blog.
3. Blogsolid
Blogsolid if an example of using an interesting design near the headline to draw the user’s attention towards the headline.
How to make your headlines pop.
1. An easy way of doing this is by making the color for your headlines different from your body text.
2. You can also use a font that is different from your content. The most common way of dong this is to use a serif font for your headlines and a non-serif font for the rest of your content.
3. Size. While size might seem like a given, I still see people who change the size of their headlines only a little bigger than their content, which makes it hard to tell if it is a headline.
4. A pretty popular way of making your headlines pop is by making the date of the post stand out. This blog uses this technique.
6. Comments
Comments are where the discussion of your posts take place and it is important to design this area in a way that it promotes communication. You can do this by making it easy to tell different comments apart, adding numbers so it is easy to refer to other comments, make the author’s comments different enough so that it sticks out and is easy to scan when a user scrolls down the comments.
Examples of great comment designs:
Chris’ comment design is very simple and easy to read. It separates the comment from the author’s information into different sections that makes it easy to glance at for information.
2. Darkmotion
I like the separation of author’s information and content here into different blocks. It makes it really feel like a conversation with each other.
I am including my comment design, because a lot of people said they like it. What do you know, I like it too! I went through dozens of variations before I settled on this one and I used the following guidelines when designing it.
How to design a great comment design:
1. Make it easy for a reader to see that each comment is separate from each other. An easy and common way of doing this is by alternating the colors for the comments. You could just as easily separate comments by putting it into clearly separate areas of real estate.
2. Design the author comments so they pop out more than regular comments, but not so much that it doesn’t look like it is part of the discussion. Small changes in color or design can do this well.
3. Separate miscellaneous information like name, date, and number from the actual comment itself. It makes it easier to quickly scan a discussion and if they want to they can read the misc. information if they want to.
7. Post’s footer
The post’s footer element refers to the area at the end of a post and before the comments section. A post’s footer often gets neglected so much it is ridiculous. It is a very valuable area of real estate on your blog design as it gives you a chance to direct your readers attention to other important articles on your blog after they have read a post.
People spend hours perfecting other elements of their blog design, but when it comes to the footer of the post they just stick in one of the default safe designs. But is it really safe when it sucks?
Examples of great footer designs for posts:
I really like Collis’ blog designs. They are really sharp, clean, and a very close attention to details. The footer for Freelanceswitch’s post does a real good job of separating the content from the extra information provided in the footer.
2. PSDTuts
This is another one of Collis’ blog designs. This one focuses the user’s attention to different places the reader can vote for or bookmark the content if they like it. I really like the attention he gave to it and how the next section uses a different background color to separate it from each other.
I really like the clean feel of Standards of Life’s footer for its posts. The alternating colors for the similar posts is a nice touch as well as the design of the foot notes. (foot notes not shown in screenshot)
How to design great footers for the posts of your blog:
1. Give the footer of the post a clear area separate from the content. This lets the reader know that it is not part of the content and it also helps it pop out more. You can do this by using a different background color.
2. Decide what you want in the post’s footer before beginning the design of it. This will help cut out unnecessary garbage and make the design process more smooth.
3. One of the best content to put in the post’s footer is links to related posts. This makes it easy for your reader to find other interesting posts on your blog.
8. Footer
Footers are interesting in that most people don’t really use it and just stick a copyright on the bottom with some basic links. But they are a great way to add more secondary navigation to your blog without overflowing your sidebar.
When people arrive at your footer, they would have just finished reading your article and maybe some comments. At this point it is good to provide secondary navigation that can lead them to other great articles you have on your blog.
Great secondary navigation links would be to your popular posts, other great posts, and recent posts. You could also stick a small about section or more contact information if one of your goals is to have them contact you.
Examples of great footer designs on blogs:
1. Designshack
I like how Designshack uses its footer as its main secondary navigation and doesn’t use a sidebar.
I like the attention to detail that Nick spent on his footer. It looks like he spent the same amount of time as he did on his header and the result is amazing.
This is a good example of a clean and simple footer that does what it suppose to do very well.
How to design a great footer for your blog design:
1. Design the footer so that is contrasts with your regular content. This will let users know that they have reached your footer and makes it pop out to them.
2. Only include links you think people who have read your article would like to see. Avoid miscellaneous information that doesn’t really help the user at this point like recent comments.
3. Keep it simple and don’t go crazy with the design. Focus on making it useful and usable.
9. Advertisements
More and more blogs are using advertisements on their blog so it has become an important element to design for. An ad placed with no thought to the blog design sticks out pretty badly and will make your blog design look terrible. You also have to be careful with the placement of your ads so that it doesn’t overpower the content.
If users are too distracted by your ads, then they won’t be able to read your content. So while you might get money for the click, they are less likely to come back to your blog. You should prioritize your content over your ads at all times, but if you design and place the ads right then you will still be able to make money while retaining your readers.
Examples of great ad designs on blogs:
1. Copyblogger
Copyblogger uses the standard 6 125 x 125 ads as well as a bigger one on top. They are clearly labeled as sponsors and before you even see the ads you see their tagline, which shows how much they prioritize their content over their ads.
Webdesignerwall uses not only the standard ads, but has one inside the blog content. It is clearly labeled and designed in a way so people can tell it is not a part of the content easily.
3. Problogger
Problogger uses a small banner on top of the standard ads next to its logo really well. It does not overpower the logo or content at all.
How to design for ads?
1. If you are going to have ads on your blog, then you must take this into account as early as possible in your design. Preferably during the pencil and paper stage of the design. This gives you the most flexibility in changing your blog design so that ads fit seamlessly in it.
2. The most popular methods of advertisements on blogs are google’s adsense and 125 x 125 banner ads. Google’s adsense is a lot more flexible since they come in various dimensions so find one that works for you. 125 x 125 ads are less flexible, but they are usually placed in the sidebar next to each other in a block of six ads.
3. After you figure out the ads you want to use on your blog, go find examples of it and copy n’ paste them into your mock up. This will help you figure out how it works in your design and allows you to make quick changes until it is how you want them.
4. Remember when designing your blog design to make the ads noticeable, but not overpowering the content. The sidebar is generally the best place to put them. The worst place to put them is where they can be mistaken as actual navigation links.
Google has an ad that is just a bunch of links and I have confused them more than once as navigation links. Labeling the ads as sponsors helps with this problem.

Great resource for inspiration! Also; much love for the several plugs here!
Great article, you have summed up almost everything you need to consider for your blog design.
Hi, thank for the tips. It is insanely useful for me.
You provided very useful information, which clearily separates blog design from general website design. Most bloggers don’t even knoe what are the key points in blog deisgn.
Thanks!
This is a great post, possibly the most useful thing I’ve read in a long time, and a very interesting read too. Thanks for putting this together.
Keep up the good content! (Note: Your point #5 on the Extra Resources bit has a broken link, you’ve done http:// twice)
Awesome post - thanks for all this info, and the links to other resources. There’s just so much to take in, that its going to require a few more reads before I can make header or footer of it all!
I must say this is very unique article I have found yet! Great work
Very cool… nice and succinct. Thanks for the hard work on this. Nice examples too, especially like the textural stuff happening on Mindtwitch. Cheers, Fred.
Great article! *bookmarked*
btw, you mislinked in “Extra Resources for Designing Your Blog” #3,#5
awesome designs…. thanks a lot for the list…..
@liam: Your welcome and thanks for pointing that out. Fixed.
@Rouvanne: Just take it one step at a time =)
@Se7en: Thanks for pointing out that out. Fixed both.
@Everyone: You’re welcome and thanks for stopping by and commenting. It is really helpful, because it lets me know I am not talking to myself and people find it useful. It took a very long time to write this article up.
Some very good tips - but an additional basic rule that needs mentioning is to be mindful of different screen resolutions when designing your layout. Something that may seem complementary to your content at one resolution may become overpowering/obtrusive in a smaller one. For example, when viewing this very blog on a 1024×768 screen (still a popular default resolution for many laptops/monitors in use today) the header is so large that it takes up almost half the browser window, shoving the content so far down that the reader has to scroll just to read the first sentence of the article. Definitely not a good first impression to make.
God, I do love the design of these comments. It justs sits and looks so nice. I approve. Two thumbs. Five gold stars.
Great roundup, inherently you should make it as clean and simple as possible.
This is one of the best articles I’ve read in a while on designs. Thank you for taking the time to write it.
Mike

Great design and very usable tips! Stumbled upon
Very helpflul list; thank you. Clean and simple is always the best thing.
Lovely headers, these are some of the best designs I’ve ever seen.
@Matt: Yes, for most blogs I would recommend not doing what I did. But for this one, I think it was a nice touch as it breaks the pattern of what people are used to seeing in a good way on purpose.
@Mike: Thanks Mike, those are the first gold stars I ever received.
@Jack: I don’t blame you, it is very long. Take your time.
@Marco: Thanks and nice of you to stop by. I can’t get that image you use for an avatar out of my mind by the way. -.-
@Everyone: Your welcome and thanks for taking a moment to comment. It makes me feel loved.
Hello webmaster…Man i just love your blog, keep the cool posts about nnial 2007 - salvatore iaconesi - del.icio.us poetry comin..holy Monday .
Wow this was so complete, only if I knew more coding than design I could do so much more. I just realised how many flaws there are in my blog design - well compared to yours
Amazing resource here, Stumbled!
Great post and some great examples
contrasting = easier to read…. aint that right ?
Hey, thanks for including my site!
This is a really great article, thank you for taking the time to write it. I am getting more and more work based around blogs and it can be overwhelming, especially for beginners, to have so many separate areas to have to concentrate on. There are some great tips in here and it is really useful having them broken down like this, I can see my self using this for reference in the future!
Great post. good examples.
Hi nice article, I just wondered, can these designs be acheived using Blogger or Wordpress or are they taken far beyond this kind of software?
I like the fact you’ve recognised that there is a distinct difference in designing a site and a blog. I’m having difficulty redesigning my SEO Blog at the moment, it looks like a big green mess! I might have to design it from scratch instead of using a dodgy template… Thanks or the post!
Great stuff and very good post, thanks mate!
good post. thanks alot.
Great post

When you check a nice designed web site, is kinda frustrating when you realize they didn’t get a cool footer. Each has its body, and the footer is such an important part of it that I just can’t understand how come people don’t spend time designing it properly.

Круто, спасибо!

This is a amazing post. I have tried to do several headers for my websites as well but failed. The header should reflect identity of your website. I have seen many websites where header says it all. The plot is built like for a movie. You know that site is good by seeing header and most of times one is right. keep posting more about headers, footers and how to maximize their use.
Great Article indeed!
I found it really useful!
Great works and indeed useful.

Thank you so much for this. I have been trying to learn how to build a good blog, and this has helped me so much!
I am a novice at this so any and all tips are greatly appreciated.
Great point about the actual design of the ads on your site.
I’m not sure if it’s applicable to all ads/affiliate ads you put on your site but I’m sure you can create your own design for the affiliate you’re promoting that could work with your own design layout as well as POP out and be attractive for users to look at and potentially click on, rather than them ignoring it because it seems like a ‘typical ad’
Can someone confirm or deny if this is possible to alter banners for ads/affiliates?
Nice Post, you have summed up almost everything we need to consider for our blog design. Thanks for sharing…
I like the design of these comments. Thanks for sharing the examples. It will really help me.

Wow, fantastic list of ideas and resources. Thanks! I have to say that’s pretty similar to my design process - I work my way down the page design, from header to footer.
Great info. I just made the transition from Blogger to WordPress. The difference is night and day. Glad to see I have incorporated some of the stuff you mention above. Still more work to do.
Some very useful tips, thanks

Those designs are amazing its clear to me that you love what you do.
I’ve found adding a feedback form into the footer is a great way to receive feedback on your site although I’d definitely suggest adding a CAPTCHA form in because I have been hit with a load of bots in the past and its just very annoying!
Amazing. Thx for that post !

Very useful! I’m sure it will help me in the future! Thanks!
Really nice article, plus i really like your design.
Lot’s of good advice, though I think the design element can be distracting if overdone. I guess everyone was trying hard to be outrageously different in 2008. Personally, I like simple clean sites with high SEO-functionality like those by Thesis.
I love them all!
good article. keep it up
Good documents, good article
i like number four…
İHA’ya açıklamalarda bulunan Pilsan Yönetim Kurulu Başkan Yardımcısı Raşit Akar, piyasada adeta bir talep patlaması yaşandığını söyledi. Raşit Akar, “Şu an piyasada inanılmaz bir talep var. Çok ciddi miktarda istekler bulunuyor. Bireysel kullanıcıların yanı sıra, karayollarında seyahatla ilgili olan tüm firmaların araçlarında bebek koltuğu zorunlu hale geleceği için taleplerde büyük patlama var. Biz şu anda beklediğimiz talebin çok üzerinde bir taleple karşı karşıya kaldık” dedi. Artan talebi
“Koltuk alırken boy ve kiloya göre doğru seçim, aracı koltuğa doğru bağlama ve koltuktaki çocuğu kemerle doğru bağlamayı öğrenmek gerekiyor. ABD’de doğumdan sonra ”Grup0“ koltuğa oturtulmayan çocukların hastaneden çıkışına izin verilmiyor. ”Grup0“ dediğimiz 0-13 Kg arasındaki çocukların oturacağı koltuklar mutlaka sürüş istikametine ters bağlanmalı. Çünkü yenidoğan çocukların kafaları vücut ağırlığının 3’te 1’i kadar olduğu için araç fren yaptığında boyun kasları güçlü olmayan çocuk ileri doğru harekette kalıcı bir zedelenmeyle karşılaşabilir. Yine sadece bu grupta koruma amaçlı hava yastıkları devre dışı bırakılmalı. Grup0’ı 0-13 kg. arası 1 yaşına kadar, Grup1’i 9-18 kg. arası 9 ay-3.5 yaş, Grup2-3 koltukları ise 15-36 kg. arasında 3-12 yaşa kadar olan çocuklar kullanıyor. Koltuktaki çocukların kemeri mutlaka omuz hizasından geçerek karın bölgesinde bağlanmalı. Uygun gerginlik ise çocuğun göğüs kafesini zorlamadan kolunu kemer dışına çıkartamayacağı kadar olmalı. Kullanıcılar geçmişini bilmediği ikinci el koltukları almamalı. Çünkü eğer bir koltuk kaza geçirmiş ise darbe emiciliği azalmış, elastikiyetini kaybetmiş ve gözle görünmeyen çatlak ve hasarları olabilir.”
thanks, great tutorial..
Thanks for sharing, worth reading. Very useful for me and blog designers.
Very useful! I’m sure it will help me in the future! Thanks!
There are some lovely designs there you should be really proud!
Tak for den fornyede undersøgelse. Jeg tror, at design element kan være distraherende, hvis overdrevet. Jeg tror alle var prøver hårdt at blive skandaløst anderledes i 2008. Personligt kan jeg lide enkle rene steder med høj SEO-funktionalitet som dem med specialet.
thanxxxx
useful information! thank you :0 i really start ti think that i can lear a lot from your posts!
useful information! thank you :0 i really start ti think that i can learn a lot from your posts!
Thanks - great post as usual! There are some great things to be learnt looking at those sites - it’s far easier to see what you like and borrow the technique rather than starting with a blank page!
Hey man, you are great guy for giving off all this useful info! I really need all the stuff here. Thanks a billion.
Truly, you are a wonderful guy!!
useful information! thank you :0 i really start ti think that i can lear a lot from your posts!
What you want to say…very Interesting stuff
thank you for the tips… I am a good coder, but i have not talent for design… you really helped!
I’m so excited to be working with these two. We really had a great time despite the chill and they warmed things up really fast. I know I say this all the time but I do have the best job in the world.
Thanks! I’ve been wanting to learn how to customize a Wordpress blog. This is great because there’s an explanation for each page of a blog.
The information is very much standard and presentation of pages is very legible.
Very nice on the information…Thank you for the tips.
Thank you so much!!!! it’s so nice of you to share these tips
I just want to add about Post’s Footer. I think it should be creative and gentle. I don’t like to feel like the author makes me to subscribe to his feed or do whatever he wants.
Wow great list – and I really appreciate the mention! When someone puts up a list like this, why don’t they put up a XML file that I can import to my reader to subscribe to all of them?, it really does mean a lot and I think the design community really truly supports each other which is a great feeling.
This is great, thank you!
Man i wish i could have an account……Best blog ever!!!!!

This article is very nice!
Thanks for sharing!
So interesting to read, thanks a billion.
Great information and tips. This information is very useful to everyone. Awesome post..
If I were to take one thing with me from your article, it would be that careful planning, without feeling the need to race ahead, is key to successful blog design.
I’m sometimes a little impatient to get the ideas I have for a new blog into reality, even if that means an occasional corner is cut.
After reading what you had to say, I will now try much harder to chill a little more, and concentrate on getting it right, rather than doing it fast.
Great advice & nicely explained.
Sounds great….Thanks for sharing this information with us………

Cool that you really emphasize how every part of a website should look like. The way you show what are the dos and don’ts on every website parts inspire everyone. Have you tried using Thesis theme for Wordpress? I’m interested in learning how to customize the Navigation Bar of Thesis theme.
good job and thanks for the great information. I’ll share my friends.
These are really good tips. I like your point about the headings setting the tone of a blog, i overlooked their importance initially.

I thought header is the most important in design as this comes first in the view. You have written most valuable points for the all bloggers to come.
The post is very informative and is easy to follow, which is very helpful for those who want to create their own blog designs. The points given are comprehensible at the same time beneficial to web developers to keep up with the ever changing demands in the competitive world of internet marketing.
Very clear and interesting. The header was the best part because of how important it is. Keep up the good blogs.
