2. Plan the Project

Organize your content and create a structured sitemap

Gather Content

Content is the foundation of your website. Start by collecting and organizing:

  • Text content for each page
  • Images and videos
  • Brand assets (logos, colors, fonts)
  • Technical requirements

Example:

For a car care website, gather service descriptions, pricing information, photos of your facility, team bios, and customer testimonials.

Create a Sitemap

A sitemap outlines your website's structure and navigation. Consider:

  • Main navigation categories
  • Page hierarchy
  • Content organization
  • User flow through the site

Example Sitemap:

Home ├── Services │   ├── Oil Change │   ├── Brake Service │   └── Detailing ├── About Us ├── Testimonials ├── Blog └── Contact
