Aproaching Web Site Architecture Like Building a House

Most people don't understand that they need to approach their website architecture like they would if building a custom house. This article makes this user-friendly analogy.

I've found many of my clients don't even think of their site architecture, or structure. They throw me a company brochure and expect it to "auto-magically" be a million-dollar website. The best sites I've developed come from good participation from the client.

If you're thinking about having a website developed, the first step is to look around the Internet at sites you like, take notes on what it is you like, then organize your information before meeting with a web developer. Remember that your developer will have some insights you may not have and your blueprint will more than likely be modified before building begins (just like a house!), but with SOME idea of what you want your site to do and how, you'll be pages ahead of your competition!
