Any successfull project requires careful planning. Web sites are no
different. Computer Help can help you prepare for your web site by
discussing the purpose, scope, audience and structure of your website while
strongly considering their relationship to your business. You can help by starting to gather content for your web site.
|
Purpose
|
Are you trying to use your web site for selling only. Or, do you
want to include resources information, forums, or other free information?
|
|
|
|
Scope
|
To what level of detail do you want to present your information? How
broadly or narrow do you want to cover your information? How much customer
education do you want to provide?
|
|
|
|
Audience
|
Whom are you trying to reach? What will this group of people be
interested in? Why would they want to buy your service or product? How will you
conduct business with them (entirely online, phone, or mail)?
|
|
|
|
Structure
|
Describe the home page, main features of the site and a hook for
readers to come back to your site. Sketch out a structure (like an organization
chart) for your site. How many rooms do you want? Do you want to include music,
video, etc.? What graphics do you want included (number and size)?

Gather Content Material
|
Start off your design with existing brochures, pictures, news articles,
business cards, flyers and newsletters.
