Red is one of the primary colors and is the warmest color of them all. It is usually associated with concepts and emotions such as strength, excitement, courage, energy, passion, love, desire, speed, power, heat, danger, violence and all things intense and passionate. A red website easily catches attention as this color stimulates actions and can even increase pulse rate. Red can be a powerful tool to attract more attention to your website.

Red carries the strongest reaction of all colors with the rest of them, this means it is a great accent color for your web designs as it stimulates people to make quick decisions. Impulse shoppers respond well to it, so a red website can be great for a clothing shop, for example. It also stimulates the sense of taste and appetite that makes it a good color choice when designing a website for a restaurant. Think of fast food restaurants, they use to have red websites and use the color in their identities precisely for that.

Red, even when used in small amounts, is very effective as an attention-getter in any website design. Designers often use splashes of red to highlight certain areas of a website, like menus, buttons or promotions, combining them with a contrasting background color. It works great with black, white and grey, these combinations usually result in very eye-catching web designs. If you are going to use red in a large area you may want to use a darker shade in order to make it easier for the eyes.
