Is my landing page sizing too big?
Hey everyone, I relaunched 30 Hour Jobs recently and I’ve gotten some feedback from various forums that the sizing is too big.
What do you think? Should I dial it back a bit? Try scaling the site with your browser view settings it should scale uniformly.
Thanks!
Hi Nicholas,
can you be more specific what kind of "sizing" they think is too big? Typo? The rows per job? The logo of the company?
From a design perspective, I'd say that hierarchy probably leads the attention immediately to the jobs - I guess that's what you want to achieve?! You can also adjust the font-sizes per job a bit to lead the attention to the job title instead of leaving it all on the same font size like this:

I reduced the font size of the "meta-information" like company name and location to 16px.
Like I mentioned above, it's hard to say without knowing specifically what exactly they think is too big.
Hey Kevin, thanks so much for looking. I really like your suggestion about making the company name a bit smaller in the list. I will definitely use that!
As for the comments I've received, some people say everything is too big. I'm not sure I agree, but basically they wanted to make everything on the site smaller.
You're welcome. :)
Well, that's their opinion than. In your case, I think, readability or "scanability" of jobs is the most important goal your design should achieve. That's what it does.
