Start on a whiteboard, not with code or design.

  • Define the purpose of the website.
  • Define clear, measurable  goals.
  • Define User Actions.
  • Define Key Performance Indicators. (How will you measure success?)

Use a Content Management System.

  • WordPress powers 27% of all websites.
  • It scales.
  • It's secure.
  • It's easy to use.

Mobile matters.

  • ~50% traffic is from mobile devices.
  • Mobile-friendly at a minimum.
  • Mobile-first is ideal.

Think like a user (as best you can)

  • Simple, Obvious, Convenient.
  • Less is more.

Make data-driven decisions.

  • Track user behavior.
  • Google Analytics w/ Goals.
  • A/B Testing.

Tell me what to do.

  • Calls to Action.
  • One (main) per page.
  • Don't assume, lead.

Go to Next Slide

Do it now.

  • Avoid "analysis paralysis."
  • Something is better than nothing.
  • Launch a teaser site before the full site.

Iteratively Improve.

  • Review analytics data.
  • Gather user feedback.
  • New idea?  A/B test it.

Better websites through teamwork.
