Web Content & Website Design
• Well thought through site design is essential for
achieving your website objectives whether they are
building engagement, brand uplift, recruiting into a
relationship marketing programme, e-commerce,
market research.
• It is tempting to over-focus on the design of the
creative rather than how you are going to manage
content as part of an always-on approach
• Is the content really useful, fun and /
or informative?
• Are your content and site objectives
clear and consistent with the brand
strategy and the BCI?
• Design from the consumer’s point of
view, not the brands’
• Always follow web standards or
navigation conventions
• Don’t create new websites, better to
use subdomains of a brand site
Good websites satisfy consumer needs
and have a proposition which is clearly
communicated instantly. Sites that fail
to deliver value, grab attention quickly,
or are hard to navigate will not hit
business goals. You need a structured
approach to web content and site
design
