Step 1 – Planning the Homepage
Before building a homepage, it is important to plan the layout and content. Planning helps ensure that the design is clear, organized, and easy to use on different screen sizes.
The first step is deciding the purpose of the homepage. A homepage usually introduces the website, highlights key information, and guides users to important sections.
Next, plan the main sections of the page. A simple homepage often includes:
- A header or hero section with a title
- A short description or introduction
- A call-to-action button
- A content or feature section
- A footer
It is also important to think about responsiveness during planning. Responsive design means the layout should adapt to desktop, tablet, and mobile screens. Keeping the design simple makes it easier to adjust later.
Planning the structure before building saves time and results in a cleaner final design.
