Web Site Design Architecture

What’s-your-business-mantra?

These are four words that often challenge leaders in rising to the top of the search engine ranks.

Original Creative’s

The answer to the above question will provide insights into the creation of your site. My simple creative philosophy is feed the website design team a comprehensive road map to create a special site everytime. No two websites are the same and using a web page template is a big NO NO in my way of thinking. If you want a templated site Template Monster has a $75 deal for you. A template will allow you to make your own website but lacks the uniqueness needed for advertising, branding, and internet marketing. Additionally many other websites share the same html thumbprint. You guessed it, Google’s natural algorithm won’t like it or worst, you may end up staring down your own site design on someone else’s website.

Building A Website Is Like Building a House

So you and your significant other decided to build your own house, Congratulations! Are you going to put on your work clothes and do it yourselves? My guess is you would hire a contractor to oversee your dream. If you are serious about doing business online there are many similarities between creating a cozy website and building your own house. Is it time to look at a web design company or would your rather tackle it yourself? Either way, an original site map (blueprint) is where all the art is and it is the beginning of a process that fits together like a glove around your business.

Your website is real estate (your property) online.

Market research forms the foundation

  1. Market research forms the foundation
  2. Keyword research is solid framework that should last a long time

As part of your website evolution, decisions will need to be made. Here are the main ones to consider:

  • Which blogging software (WordPress, Blogger, etc)
  • Do you need a commerce server (for selling your products on a secure server)
  • What types of  web site design creation do you currently like (Provide examples)
  • Will you also need a web site logo design?
  • If you have a web site design idea communicate it with your design firm
  • Do you want to track the traffic coming to your site?
  • What is your web hosting preference?

Designing a web site with an architecture design diagram in accordance with the development plan is a great way to impress the people that land on your site. Not to mention your organic placements are always naturally favorable with fewer inbound links. The power of persuasive architecture is often overlooked in the visual intelligence of websites. This is something that web design for dummies does not show you. Uniting your unique web site design with all optimal on and off page SEO/SEM elements is what makes great web designing with SEO sculpted into the process.

Web graphic design has a distinct advantage over other forms of graphic design such as print media. It can be deployed immediately after effective eyeballing to get e feel for audience response. That is one of the biggest reasons why I like working on the web with design elements first (before print), it’s easier to test. The results can really be insightful for direct mail campaigns that follow the web logo and graphic design. You are marketing to the same people using a different medium.

Site Build Summary

It is not the cost of web designs that you need to be worried about, it is the cost of not having one. With a reasonable creative time frame you can also solve any trouble with the engines by insuring sound architecture and good on page structure.
