Have you decided to create a new website for your company or your hobby? Do you want to learn how to design it beautifully? Make it simple and easy to use? Properly use links to authoritative sites like playamo.com, but make it look natural? A structured approach will help you achieve your goals and will certainly help you – no doubt – in the process of creating them. Here are the 7 steps to take into account to make the work easier!
1. Determine the Purpose of Your Site and Your Objectives Clearly
First, ask yourself what the purpose of your website is. This important question may seem trivial to you, but it is often overlooked at the beginning of the website creation process.
2. Define Your Target Audience
Knowing who will visit your website is essential in the creation process. With a clearly defined target audience, a site’s chances of success increase considerably since we can adapt it to a specific type of clientele and offer it certain content according to its fields of interest.
3. Define Your Overall Budget
As in any project, it is important to establish a specific budget. How much are you willing to invest in your website? We rarely talk about this aspect, but it is very important to be aware that there are many types of websites, from the simplest to the most elaborate.
4. Present Inspirations
To demonstrate to the team that will develop your site what you have in mind and what you aspire to, we suggest looking for examples of sites that inspire you. These examples can be sites from your competitors, sites whose visual style you like (not necessarily related to your industry), sites that are less aesthetic, but which have the functionalities you are looking for, etc.
5. Establish a Tree Structure
The tree structure represents the structure of the pages and allows to give a certain hierarchy to the content according to its priority. First, make an inventory and list all the content you would like to see on your website, then categorize it in order of importance. You can also draw inspiration from the way your competitors have prioritized the information on their sites.
6. Write Content
Once you have determined what content will be present on your site, remember to write the texts for each page, if you haven’t already done so. If your content has already been written, think about optimizing it for the Web, because Web writing is very different from traditional writing. The texts must be engaging and contain effective calls to action. It is essential to direct your visitors when they read and navigate your site.
7. Make Your Website Known
Your site is launched! Congratulations to you! But it doesn’t stop there, after the launch of your site, it will be important to establish its credibility and make sure it is visited. How do you do that? By developing an action plan and a digital marketing strategy. It will also be very important to continue to develop your brand and be active on social networks. Don’t hesitate to make publications on social networks that will lead to your website, it’s a great way to increase traffic.
