First Step in a Website Project: Needs Analysis
Before starting a website project, four core questions must be answered: What is the site's purpose (brochure, sales, portfolio, booking)? Who is the target audience and which device do they use? Is there an existing brand identity (logo, color palette, font)? What are the budget and timeline constraints? These four answers determine both the right company selection and the project scope.
Website Types and Choosing the Right Format
- Corporate brochure site: standard structure showcasing company, services, and contact info. The most common need.
- E-commerce site: infrastructure with product catalog, cart, payment, and order management.
- Landing page: a high-conversion-focused page for a single product or campaign.
- Portfolio site: structure showcasing work samples for freelancers or agencies.
- SaaS or application platform: complex web application with user registration, dashboard, and API.
- Blog and content site: SEO-focused structure with regular content production.
How Does the Website Project Process Work?
A standard corporate website project consists of: Discovery and scope definition (1-2 weeks), design (wireframe and visual design, 2-3 weeks), development (front-end and back-end coding, 3-6 weeks), content integration and testing (1-2 weeks), go-live and SEO technical setup (1 week). Total duration varies from 8-14 weeks.
