Unit 3: Planning a Web Project, Part 2

Lesson 3.1: Site Design

 !  Lesson Goal:
Make key decisions about your site's structure and navigation.

During the previous phase of Web design (information design), you answered key questions about the site's goals, audience, and content. During the site design phase, you will use that information to make decisions about the site's structure — the skeleton that holds everything together. This includes planning the site's organization, navigation, interaction or functionality, and overall usability.
