How To Start Building Your Website

The first step of any unusual adventure starts with correct planning. There are some main things you have to start with, but do not worry: everything you do can be easily re-done if you did not do it very well the first time. Keep attention because start building your website is very important!

Let’s start with the simple questions to ask before you start building and marketing your website. Remember, you can build a web site for any number of purposes and you can certainly build more than one. Start with these questions any time you’re contemplating putting a web page together.

What is the purpose and/or desired outcome of the web site?

• What will your visitors be looking for?
• What pages will be on the site?
• What pages will be on the site?
• What are some of the major features it will have?

Here are some possible answers to those questions (just to give you some example):

What is the purpose and/or desired outcome of the web site?

• - educate visitors on products and services
• - sell products on the site
• - encourage visitors to contact the company via phone or email
• - handle customers questions and troubleshoot problems

What pages will be on the site?

• - home page
• - company news page
• - contact page
• - tutorials on product use
• - FAQ

What are some of the major features it will have?

• - email list form to send specials and info to customers
• - company blog
• - database of customers and orders

While you are still in the planning stage, there are a couple of major problems I typically see with new website, that are easily corrected. Do not let this happen to you.

For example, you would think that you’d want to be really accessible to someone who visits your web site so they can contact you any way they want to whenever they want to, but that’s not the case. Just ask any website owner who has supplier a phone number, email address, fill-out-form, online chat, and physical address to all their prospects and you’ll find that not only is it easy to lose track of people and have them fall through the cracks, but it just ends up causing people to become indecisive on how to proceed.

Planning before building your website it is very important. I’ve ripped a lot of my hair out because I did not properly plan a website before I started building it. Most people do not know that this is why I keep my hair really short now (so I can not get a grip on it).
