Ohio Web Design Basics

Step 1 Focus

The first step is to decide what the main purpose of the web site is - what you want to focus on in terms of a subject.

It is important that you define this step as clearly as possible because a web site’s focus has a major impact on the whole project; this is the ‘foundation’ of the site.

Step 2 Map Out The Major Sections

With the first step completed, you’re ready to actually start mapping out the major sections of the web site; drawing out quick diagrams of the web site is a useful way of doing this.

A diagram can easily show the hierarchy of a web site and how the various sections are related to each other. Our designers will actually work with you and create what we call a story board of your ideas, translating them into a Web site

Step 3 Content

The third step is to write out all of the content a lot of designers will leave this part to the end … then they wonder why they have to go back and rethink the structure of the site.

All web sites are driven by content; it’s the content that makes a site effective and successful. As such, this part of the process is arguably the most important, so you need to pay attention to it.

Step 4 Find A Style and Create From It

This is the most exciting step of them all, now that we have this information we will assist you in finding a domain name that suits your company or organization and one that works well with your Web site content.

At this stage Ohio Web Designs will begin creating your new Web site We will work with you and your information to select a style that will fit and begin constructing the actual site.

Step 5 The Approval Process

Ohio Web Designs will assign a link with temporary hosting so that you may check out the new Web site in real time as it progresses. As we make milestone changes we will upload the new pages and notify you, so that you can check out and approve the Web site every step of the way.

Step 6 Web site Hosting and Maintenance
