The Process:
Why a web site?
Individuals and businesses have web pages for different reasons. Determining the client needs is the first step. It can be as simple as just having a presence. Often people turn to the web to look up phone number or store hours. That level of presence is both simple and necessary.
Once it is clear what the purpose of the web site is, reviewing other web sites the client like is a clear way of determining the way forward with design and what kind of text you need. Look around, see what you like, but also ask why you like those sites.
The next step is to start with sample designs to fine tune what had been communicated. The rest is putting it all together and getting ready to launch!
