The steps of website construction are not complicated. The difficult thing is that every detail must be perfected so that the website can be high-end and classy. This requires many years of professional website construction experience and aesthetic accumulation to design and develop an excellent website.

Professional website construction usually involves the following steps:

1. Requirements analysis

Before building a website, you must first understand what your needs and goals are?

Is it used to promote the image, spread the brand, serve customers, display products or order online? What are the target customer groups and their regional distribution? What are the characteristics of the industry?

2. Prototype design

The so-called prototyping design combines needs and goals, and uses website language to outline the format and layout. To put it simply, on a white cloth, several areas should be divided, what content should be placed or what functions should be displayed in each area, and how they interact with each other.

Professional website designers will use professional software to draw prototypes, but the best way is paper and pen. You can simply outline your ideas with wireframes, which are so-called low-fidelity drawings.

The advantage of drawing a prototype is to visualize your ideas, communicate well with designers and developers, and is also a way to reflect product thinking.

3. Visual design

The visual interface of website design is the most direct sensory experience for users. Enterprise websites need to pay more attention to customer experience. They should be concise, clear, focused, natural in interaction, and easy to use... An elegant website experience can not only enhance customers' impression of the company, but also help establish connections faster and achieve twice the result with half the effort in marketing strategies.

4. Front-end development

Use HTML, CSS, JavaScript to code web design into static pages with interactive logic. Static pages need to be compatible with different browsers, resolutions, devices, including mobile usability, and are usually processed using responsive technology.

Front-end interaction should be natural and simple. The more animation effects are used, the better. It should be done in moderation and appropriate.

Front-end frameworks such as jQuery and Bootstrap should be used with caution based on project requirements. Loading too many frames will not only be slow and affect the experience, but also cause trouble in debugging.

5. Back-end development

Commonly used website development languages include PHP, JSP, Node.js, ASP.Net, etc. From a cost-saving perspective, you can choose mature open source programs to build, such as Joomla, WordPress, etc.

Enterprise-level websites should not blindly pile up functions and ignore website experience. The function is to serve the content, and an extensible interface is enough.

6. Testing and launching

Before the website goes online, a complete website operation test is required, including copywriting correctness, display compatibility, device adaptability, functional availability, smooth interaction, loading speed, etc., as well as the use of HTTPS security protocol.

The domain name can be registered before the website is built or before going online. The server selection is based on the target customer group and can be purchased domestically or abroad. Cloud servers are a good option for corporate websites. Linux can be selected as the system and the website usage environment can be deployed.

7. Maintenance and updates

Keeping your website active is not only conducive to SEO search optimization, but also allows your target customers to feel the vitality of your company. Corporate websites can keep the website active by regularly updating news updates, uploading new products or work cases, etc.
