Website planning or creation is the technique of modeling or designing the website comprising graphics, layout, theme, structure, etc of the website. Website planning signifies defining the goals and objectives of the website.

So my dear friends we should know how websites are designed and planned….

Creating a website needs a plan and outline of your goal and you must know a clear path for achieving those goals.

These seven steps will guide you to reach those goals. Let’s discuss them one by one.

  1. Information gathering by identifying your goals:- Before you start planning your website you must know:-your primary objective, what you want to accomplish, whether it is informational, or product selling, and what will be your target audience. Then turn your purposes into concrete goals.

  2. Planning and identifying the target audience:- You need to visualize your target audience because if you try to reach everyone, you would probably fail to attract anyone. Forming a wide, broad net does little to help with driving traffic, driving conversions, or connecting with the audience. So, you need to know exactly who you are trying to reach. You will fail to identify your target audience, and it can lead to a variety of marketing problems if you skip this step.

  3. Design and Define your unique selling proposition:- My dear friends so far in the process to plan a website, you’ve clarified your goals and defined your target audience. Now, you can begin developing marketing strategies for reaching the audience and enabling them to act. The initial step in this procedure is developing a unique selling proposition.

A unique selling proposition is something different that makes your brand, commodities, or services different from and decent to your competitors.

  1. Secure a domain name (and hosting):- Currently, you have completed a huge segment of your website procedure, you can begin getting prepared to set up your site. Start that process by ensuring or securing a domain name. I know now you will question “ what is a domain name”. A domain name is the essence of your website address, and you require a domain (and web hosting) for your website to appear online.

For your better understanding think of it this way: Your website is like your home. Your web hosting is like the estate your house sits on. And your domain is like your street address.

Some most common domain extensions are .com, .net, .info, org. and co. They are also great in demand because they are the most recognizable and they were the first existing domain extensions.

  1. Coding and picking a website builder:- So my dear fellow readers, at this point in designing your website, you are all set to decide on the best website builder and coding.

Now, you can finally move on to creating the website itself. Illustrations like graphic design that have been designed during the previous steps should be utilized to create an actual website. We know that the home page is created first, and then all sub-pages are added, according to the website configuration that was previously created in the form of a sitemap. So our dear designers you should implement frameworks and CMS to make sure that the server can handle the installation and set up smoothly.

  1. Testing, Review, and Launch:- Friends, now you have done enough in previous stages and now you have a strategy, domain name, and platform for your website. Now you can create and collect design elements and give your website a special and unique name. Then you can test your website. You should know testing is the most routine part of a process, in this, every single link should be tested and you should check every script, and every form, and run spell-checking software. Now, you can upload your website after you check and recheck.

  2. Maintenance of the website:- My dear readers, now we have come so far and you must have known enough about this. The last and most important step is maintaining the website & you should also make sure that everything works fine, and everybody is satisfied and constantly be prepared to bring modifications and alternations in another case.

Now, friends, we should give this topic a conclusion in a few words. Website designing is not only about coding but includes a lot more effort and information. It has great benefits in digital marketing. It enhances user engagement by planning and creating an attractive website with visual elements and creative content.
