I have noticed that most of the designers do not pay any attention towards footer designing and put all unnecessary information at the bottom of the page. But recently bloggers are utilizing footers to put different important elements in it. Here are few excellent footer designs that i have encountered. Hope you will like them too http://www.cyberdesignz.com/blog/website-design/latest-trends-for-footer-designing/
These are some nice footers... I know for me, footers are usually an afterthought. I spend a lot of time designing headers and the rest of that page, and by the time i get down to the footer I'm no longer feeling as creative and just end up doing something simple. Web 2.0 footers like these are very nice touches that really enhance user experience, but I don't think they provide very much practical use beyond that.
I've visited your link and the footers there are not really different from what I see in most websites. The simpler the website, the simpler the footer. In corporate websites it's more common for the footer to be better designed because of the money put in to building the website. I'd really like to see some thing new and exciting in the footer designs.
Footers are really nice designs. However, customers generally don't order only footer designs. Footers are designs along with other graphics of the web page.
Thank you for sharing your design. Yes it is true that most of the web design don't emphasize too much on the footer as it did not see by the users.
Footer is really important for you to find new business If someone like the website , he needs to contact you or your design team , normally people scroll down to the footer and see the contact details
