Welcome To The Professional Website Design Revolution
There are many ways to design a website and your approach differs slightly whether it’s a static or a dynamic website. But generally speaking it involves the following simplified stages.
- Understand the briefing
- Plan the project
- Design and show your client the site’s wireframe and prototype
- Refine the graphics and show them to your client
- Slice the graphics and write the code
- Test, validate and debug the code
- Show the website to your client
- Repeat the process 2-3 times till the client is happy
- And finally launch & maintain the website
Only someone who had been through this tedious process can truly appreciate how dysfunctional and unproductive it is. And its major flaws.
Problem One: The handwritten Code
You can’t design decent sites any more with just HTML and CSS and Javascript. After all, static websites are a thing of the past, proudly sitting in the design museum next to letterheads. Dynamic and modern websites require a fair share of PHP and MySQL knowledge as well, and a couple more APIs, frameworks and libraries. And after a while you begin to feel more like a developer than a designer. Your creative vision is ultimately hindered by how well you can implement it in code. And that’s not fun!
Problem Two: The un-decisive client
The client always wants to try out different things, graphics and color schemes. Sometimes it is hard for them to decide whether pink or violet is a better match for their manly mustache-grooming product line, or where to put the slider, or what they want. It’s part of the job. And each time you want to scream in despair, but instead you change the graphics, probably your HTML and CSS as well, or end up coding entire functionalities that won’t be used in the end.
And while you are beginning your career you don’t have the guts to charge for all these changes or the experience to get the upper hand in the process, making your life miserable and your salary unsustainable. Don’t worry; it happens to everyone in the field to some degree or another.
Problem Three: Maintaining the code and managing a lot of websites
After a while your portfolio grows, and so does the sites you manage. You have a password and an FTP list for the static ones, a password and URL list for the dynamic ones, and soon it’s a big happy mess. And this becomes even more tedious if you need to update them often.
A WordPress update ruined your functionality in one website, PHP changed version and functions you used on another one got deprecated, internet explorer doesn’t support any more “x” feature on all your sites, or you simply need to update the content because one of your client decided to blog from his static website… Not daily occurrences exactly but you get the point.
