Ideas

At this stage we are looking to develop your requirements and identify your underlying long term and short term goals. Here we will support you to understand some of the steps needed to express your ideas on the web. We will show you how developing a website can have more possibilities than in the past.

With IGL there is a porthole into the web that frees you to see possibilities.

What are your requirements? -

  • Interactive - will you need forms, forums, reviews, blogs, upload/download files, or payment facilities?
  • Registered login - will there be restricted access to pages or services
  • Visual design - how will the look affect the communication of the content and moving from page to page?
  • Feel (look at design stage)
    • Colours
    • Fonts
    • Pictures
    • Layout
    • Navigation
    • User experience
  • Goals - short term and long term for both website and business.
  • Reason for the site
  • Expected outcomes
  • It's future

Look at the above possible requirements and think about your ideas and how they work together. Here are some questions that might help. These are on the submission form at the end.

  • Who are you looking to use your site?
  • What will their needs be?
  • How will the site meet some of these needs?
