Unit 2: Planning a Web Project, Part 1

Lesson 2.1: The Web Design Process

 !  Lesson Goal:
Get an overview of how to plan your website's design.

Most individuals interested in designing websites want to get straight to the actual coding of the site, i.e., to start adding text and images to the pages right away. Page design certainly is an important aspect of the process; however, much of the success of a website is based on the overall planning of the site, long before the coding ever takes place. Whether you will be creating websites for yourself or for someone else, you first must consider the purpose of the website and how you plan to get its intended message across to the audience.
