Website Planning
An important component of creating a successful website is the planning process. Planning is important in order to save time and money in the actual development process. This is especially true when it comes to larger websites such as e-commerce sites, web applications or portals.
Website planning involves:
- Determining the scope of the website
- Determining the functionality of the website
- Creating a briefing document and a RFP document for vendors.
- Creating a checklist for all aspects of the website’s work.
- Creating a project plan.
A systematic approach to website planning will also help you appoint the correct vendor for each deliverable as well as budget adequately for those hidden costs that might come up later.
What Does a Website Plan Contain?
A website plan will contain three main areas of information
a. Features / Deliverables
b. Timeline / Schedules
c. Costs / Resources
Each area will contain information designed to concentrate your attention on the most important aspects of the project. Ultimately any web project plan will come down to the above three areas in one form or the other.
Having the plan is only the beginning but it gives you the answers you need before you start.
A plan does not automatically translate into a successful project but as the saying goes ‘Well begun is half done.’ For many business owners it is difficult to find the right questions let alone the right answers. I give you both.
Why should you pay for the planning process when a web designer can do it without one?
Most web designers will take a very narrow focused approach to the website, namely the part they are being paid for. But there are so many areas which need to be considered that a normal web designer will not include. A little known fact is that a website project would require many offline resources aside from the online ones. A good website plan will take into consideration all the logistic possibilities that might be required in the course of development and after launch as well.
Website Redesign
A little known fact is that like many other systems a website also needs to be periodically redesigned and revamped. This is because many parts of the system such as technology, security, design and functionality can quickly get outdated. At the pace at which online technology is growing this is even more accelerated.
Is your site responsive?
Does your current website cater to the different types of devices that access your site? Smartphones, tablets and PC all have different viewing environments – so if your site is not “responsive” your losing business.
When is a website revamp necessary?
- The site’s design has become obsolete and looks old especially in comparison to competitor websites
- The site’s technology is old and does not take advantage of the latest advances in online technology.
- The site’s security is compromised and needs an overhaul to protect against hackers, spammers and malicious viruses.
- The site was not well constructed from the beginning and the mistakes can no longer be tolerated in these highly competitive times.
I can review your current site (audit), suggest appropriate measures and then revamp the entire site’s design and functionality.
