An official website or online store is essential for almost every company. What should you know before building a website? Taking a few minutes to read this article can help you plan your website more effectively.
Website Structure
Website structure gives a website design company a clear design direction. First, you need to understand the goal of the website, such as building brand image or increasing sales. To achieve that goal, the required functions and pages may include a company profile, product catalogue, and other content.
Website design companies often refer to competitors’ websites, learn from useful elements, remove weaker ideas, and integrate the required functions and pages into a complete website structure.
Focus on Target Customers
Some people build websites based mainly on their own preferred style and functions, rather than thinking from the customer’s perspective. A successful website should provide a good user experience for target customers.
You can invite users to test the website and provide feedback. This can help create a better website design.
Domain Registration
Every website needs a domain name so visitors can access it. You can apply for a domain through a domain registration company yourself, or ask the website design company to handle it for you.
Whichever method you choose, you should ultimately receive the domain registration location, login account, and password information.
Website Operation and Maintenance
Completing website design and production is only the first step. After the website goes live, it must keep improving. New content should be added regularly, and existing content should be updated when necessary.
You also need marketing to increase exposure, introduce the website to more consumers, attract visits, and strengthen purchase intention among target customers.
Pay Attention to Contract Terms
Before signing with a website design company, read the contract terms carefully to protect your interests. Pay special attention to whether the contract amount is correct, the proofreading schedule at different production stages, the number of design drafts, the number of revisions, and the proofreading method.
You should also confirm termination terms, file ownership after termination, intellectual property ownership of the completed website design, domain ownership, and website maintenance services.
