The Planning Phase: Creating the Building Blocks of a New Website

Submitted by Sandy England on Sunday, 30 November 2008No Comment

With a well-planned and properly executed website design, you will be able to create a site that can generate multiple streams of revenue for you.

In fact, may websites turn into online wasteland because they are not well planned and do not get much site visits. Gradually, you may even lose interest in keeping it updated – don’t let it turn into a wasted cyberspace.

Brainstorm Revenue-Generating Ideas

The whole point of putting effort into properly planning your site is so that you can optimize it for revenue. First, consider various ways in which you generate income from your site.

Create a Meaningful Information Architecture and Navigation Menu

Divide your site into major blocks, ordered by themes, and start building new pages and subsections in those blocks. For example, you might have a “food” section, an “accommodation” section and an “entertainment” section for a tourism site.

Create and Publish Meaningful Content

In each of your main sections of the website, you can then write and publish relevant articles to attract people looking for relevant information.

Incorporate Ways to Generate Revenue

When you have a broader, better-defined scope of themes for your website, you can sell space on your pages to people interested in advertising on your page. You can also earn from programs like Google’s Adsense and Yahoo! Search Marketing if people surf to those themed pages and click on the ads.

For this very reason, the advertisement blocks on your pages need to be relevant to the content, so a themed page fits that criteria perfectly.

As the Internet becomes more widespread, advertising on the Internet is bringing in more results than on magazines or offline media. Start tapping in on this lucrative stream of profit right away by sharing your knowledge and opinions with the world!
