be. If you fear that a custom web site may be out of your budget, then
why not stop by Reall
Ez for some great priced and originally designed templates for
use on both website and ecommerce/shopping cart sites.
There are several things to consider when initially designing a web site
and generally they are :-
Layout
Do you already have an idea of what you want your site to look like?
Do you have any favourite sites? What about those particular sites appeals
to you? Do you have a current brand or logo? Will you need a logo or brand?
Will you need a banner and button links to your site that will need to
be created in the initial design of your web site? Do you have an idea
of which colours you want to use for the backgrounds, border, buttons,
links and text?
If your site is easy to navigate, then visitors will stay longer and
are more likely to return again to your site. A uniform look across pages
helps visitors to feel comfortable. Will your site have a lot of graphics
or will it be an informative text site? How do you want to display your
products/services?
Aim
What do you want your web site to do for you? Is your aim to have an
e-commerce site? Will you sell products online? Will the site be promoting
a service? What demographic of visitors do you hope to attract(your 'target
audience')? Are you looking to advertise?
Selling
Will your site sell anything? Do you already have a merchant account?
Would you like to set up an online international merchant account to accept
credit cards and e-cheques? How will you accept order payments for your
online products? Will you need a 'shopping cart'? What sales and government
taxes apply? Do you need to ship orders to customers? What is your policy
on returns, faults and damages? What guarantee can you give your customers
regarding the goods they are ordering? To accept credit cards you need
access to a 128bit security setup online, do you currently have access
to this high level of security for your customers?
Content
What are you going to say? What do people want to hear? Do you want an
interactive site? Do you want music/sound? Do you need a mailing list
to inform visitors of changes to your site? Will you be updating your
site content or aspects of it on a regular basis? Do you want a Guest
Book? Do you want a Message Board? How will you encourage visitors to
return to your site? Competitions and/or freebies are a good way to attract
return customers to your site.
Links
Links to other sites are great for getting your site listed in the Top
10 search engines and directories. The more "hits" or "visitors"
to your site, the more prominent your web site will be in a customers
search of the World Wide Web. You can not link to ANY other site without
that sites permission. Do you want a separate page for your links? Do
you want the links shown at the bottom of your page? Other sites may wish
to link to you. Do you want to offer a free banner or button link for
them to display on their page?
Promoting Your Site
You will have to consider advertising. Whether it is banner advertising
or another form of advertising online. An online business is just the
same as any other business. You need to get out there and promote your
site. Newspaper advertising in your local area may be necessary to get
things moving. You will need business cards and other promotional material.
One of the beneficial aspects to the Internet is that news travels fast
- really fast! So how will you promote your site? Do you already have
an audience or will you need to create one by relying on advertising and
search engine submissions?
Feedback
One of the most important qualities in a site is feedback. You need to
provide responses to visitors and clients comments. You need to provide
this response no later than 48 hours after a submission. An email acknowledgment
is re-assuring to visitors, especially if you can't respond straight away,
whether it's a technical question or a huge corporate client. You also
need to treat all inquiries with courtesy and expedience. If you
will not be able to address all incoming orders and mail, Reall Solutions
can help you out as part of our maintenance fees.
