I was just reading some interesting statistics regarding web developers/designers.
The study suggested that most web sites (74%) were produced by a man or predominantly male teams, compared to just 7% designed by a female or female team.
While it would be difficult to be precise in this kind of data, clearly men are predominant when it comes to web site design. The articles also suggested that
78% of female-oriented beauty websites are designed by men. Hmmm... that seems as ridiculous as the "bra" being designed by mostly men! *smiles*
While their are some amazing male web designers out there, it only seems reasonable that their should be many more women designing websites, particularly "female consumer" oriented sites. After all, "we" know what we like!
Having done several searches for "web design for women" on Google, MSN, and Yahoo, the number of websites that focus on design for women is relatively small.
LuLu Wow will continue to focus on this much needed market!
