Hello again! Yesterday I told you that over the next several days we would go over the key essential elements to consider when planning your next website development project with MultiCOLOR Media. The topic we covered yesterday was “General Purpose and Audience”. Today’s topic is “What Information To Include” on your new site!

Please feel free to leave any comments if you think i’ve left anything out .

2. Information That You May Wish to Include

Consider what information and features you want to make available on your new website. Every business and every website is different, and there are no standards (at least not anymore) when it comes to what you NEED to have on your website, it’s all up to you. With that said here are some examples of what you may choose to include on your new website:

• Your Company Information
• Contact Info (Phone, Fax, Mobile, Email, IM)
• Terms & Conditions
• Privacy Policy
• Frequently Asked Questions
• Products Descriptions
• Services You Offer
• Links to your Social Profiles
• RSS Feeds (For Easy Syndication)
• Industry Related Articles
• Web Blog
• Live Chat / Chat Room
• Forum / Message Board
• shopping cart (ecommerce only)

Well that sums it up! Tune in tomorrow for Part 3: Design & Development
