Analysis and Design of Web Pages
End-user groups
End-users are the groups of people most likely to use the website.
Some common end-user groups are:
young children
employees with specific needs
customers/clients
inexperienced users
skilled and expert users
users who require additional features to aid ability (users with learning difficulties/require voice recognition integration/screen readers
It is important that the web developer has a clear idea of who the target audience is so that the web design reflects this.
Functional Requirements
Processes the website must be able to carry out
Interaction with databases/information that the website needs to access in order to function properly.
Design
Navigation
Linear
In a linear structure, the users move from one page of the site to another in sequence.
Hierachical
In a hierarchical structure, pages are accessed depending on their position in the hierarchy.
Wire-framing
Wireframes are used to design the layout of a webpage. They should show:
Navigational links
Text areas
Media used (including file formant)
Position and type of hyperlinks on page
Low Fidelity Prototyping
Often wireframes are passed to a graphic design artist and they will try and replicate and layout.
A low fidelity prototype can be created using pen and paper. This will be shown to the end-user group and they will give feedback.
They will often contain more detail than a wireframe
