Creating beautiful website can help you become successful in the digital era. Having the eyes of an artist maximizes the chance of producing efficient website design. However, efficiency needs some rules to be derived.
Whether you are designing web pages as a freelancer or for your business, the tips below are helpful.
Gather Information
The first thing you need in designing a website is to know the website’s purpose and its target market. The purpose and target market will be your guide to proceed and your basis as you go on the project.
Understanding how the clients want their website to be presented will give you ideas about what you are needed from them. Basically, you can ask their company’s vision, mission, goals, and objectives during your initial meeting. For bigger company clients (if it is a big company) will assign another Virtual Assistant to be a dedicated contact person to answer your queries for this project.
Plan
After your initial gathering of data, you can now proceed to manually plan the website. You have to use first a paper and pencil in planning the whole website and each chunk of the web pages. You can do this with any representative from your online job clients or you can do this alone and later present it to the body.
It is important to present a complete layout of each page, the linkages, the flows of the website, and what color palettes to be used in every portion of the page. You also need to look at the organization and continuity of each web page. The goal is to hook and entice visitors to avail of what the website is offering.
Choose a Site Builder
In choosing a site builder, make sure that it has a tool for SEO Optimization. Because every client wants to see their website on the first page of the search engine result, and that is the use of the SEO tool.
You can use WordPress to build a website because it has the needed SEO tool for on-page optimization. WordPress is a user-friendly site builder and it can be learned easily.
Application
Using the outputs from the first three steps properly, make the actual web designing go smoothly. During this step, you will simply follow what is in the plan, apply it to your chosen site builder, and populate it with the gathered data.
Adjust things if necessary but never overhaul the whole plan. Doing so may affect the overall result of the website. And may lose its purpose and target market.
Review and Preview
To attain an efficient web design, repeatedly review your work from both the admin and public view before publishing it. Also, let others or anybody from your friends or colleague read every page of the website to check any tiny errors.
Applying rules in doing your online business makes you produce something valuable. If you need help creating your website, let us know.
