Website Brainstorm

Throughout this course, you will work on developing a comprehensive website plan and functional 3-page website based on a topic of your choice. Each week, you will complete and submit an individual project developing your website plan and website.

Website Brainstorm:

Resource: Use the "Web Design Best Practices Checklist", Table 3.1, of Basics of Web Design: HTML5 & CSS3, 3rd Edition to guide your review.

Think about a type of website such as a resume site, product site, or information site that you would like to create for this class. 

Find and compare two websites of a similar type.

Review each website and pay attention to:

• Page layout
• Navigation
• Color and graphics
• Multimedia
• Content presentation
• Functionality
• Accessibility
• Brower compatibility

Create a 1-page document or 7-slide PowerPoint® presentation comparing the two sites against each other and the Website Design Best Practices Checklist (located in the activity resource). Additionally, consider what design features you will add to your site and why.
