What goes into building a website?
- Content: Whether you write a few paragraphs or hire someone to do it, it’s got to be written, organized, keyword optimized, human being optimized, spell-checked and proofread.
- Photos: Whether they’re original or stock, someone must find, organize, and properly size and output them for the web.
- Design: There’s high end custom and there’s minimal, but someone has to consider colors, fonts, graphics and how they all work with your brand.
- Structure: Someone has to think about pages, navigation and usability, and the best way to get users from here to there.
- Layout: Headers, footers, sidebars, call-outs, opt-in boxes, social icons. These things don’t magically place themselves on the page, nor should they be stuck somewhere haphazardly.
- Optimization: Beyond keywords, there are considerations for code quality, site speed, meta data.
- Functionality: Opt-in boxes don’t program themselves. Nor do contact forms, shopping carts or other features. There are fundamental questions like “what happens if…” and “then what?”
- Compatibility: With half a dozen common browsers and twice as many versions, multiple operating systems and platforms, not to mention mobile, someone must make sure your site works on all platforms.
- Launch: Someone must install your site on a hosting server, set up the DNS, get your analytics, Webmaster tools and sitemaps in order and make sure everything is working in real life, including all those opt-ins and contact forms.
