What is the focus of your website?

Do you want to have a business? Do you want a free entertainment site? Do you want a personal site? This is where you as the website owner/ webmaster have to decide what you want on your website content wise. You could register a domain, buy web space at a webhost, but it is the content you need to have down or at least a nice brainstorm plan for your site- to- be. The content will help you decide the rest of the mood of the website, especially when it comes for your visitors to navigate your site. Without focus, you could have a very disorganized website.

When brainstorming, first list the major areas of the website you wish to have more emphasis. Then, underneath each main category, go into detail of what you want, things like: will you need a membership script, or perhaps a blog script, or any certain script to do what you want your site to be? Will you need certain graphics to illustrate your site’s focus? Will you need to invest money? All of these issues are important when embarking on a new website venture.

Factors like considering what kind of audience your site will reach are extremely important during the brainstorming process. This involves age, gender, personal quirks, ethnicity and more. Obviously a website for dentures may not appeal to a younger audience, while a website of hard core rap may not suit those who are died hard country music fans.

Lastly, what kind of accessibility do you want your site to have. Do you want it totally PC, W3 standard and cross browser compatible, or are you willing to take a few risks to make your site happen. Although it is best recommended to have a site that is cross browser compatible, not every design and coding technique will allow this to happen. This will always fall back with who you intend on as an audience for your website. It is important in this part of the process to keep in mind cross browser compatibility and try to apply as much as you can to your site.
