Gender in webpage design: A satisfaction measurement

Few researchers have investigated user satisfaction issues for Web design, and the effect of gender on the context of end-user e-testing software, which normally consists of a website used as a medium of student evaluation in IT skills and language use when applying for places in post-compulsory education. Designers´ ignorance of gender differences is particularly evident in studies suggesting that software is not deliberately designed for males (Huff, 2002). The notion designing for a particular gender involves the act of building the whole interface bearing in mind some particular facts and factors which are only valid for one gender, with the belief that it covers both genders. This paper closely investigates to what extent does the established recommendations for the Website design elements satisfied both genders.
