The best way to think about how a web site is developed is to think of a basic tree structure system.

• Home Page: this is the first page that will load when a potential customer visits your site. Information on this page must describe your company and its functions clearly. It must also contain keywords that a customer might type in to a search engine to find you. For example "Web Design Townsville" (please take note of the keywords used in this homepage).
• Main Headings/Menu Buttons: These are the main site divisions: eg. About Us, Services, Portfolio, Pricing, Contact, there may be more or less depending on your company type) these will be the main areas/pages that describe your business.
• Sub Headings: (if needed).
  • Sub headings will not be linked from all pages like the “Main Headings/Menu Buttons” but from a specific page to better show your companies departmental structure. If all “Main Headings/Menu Buttons” need multiple sub headings then your site will require a specialized menu structure (please discuss further with your designer). Here is a simple sub heading example...
    • Under the "Company" page...
      • Department 1
      • Department 2
      • Department 3
• Page Information & Images: This is the information and images you need to supply under each Heading & Sub Heading. (Page Content)
