Based on the brief and information gathered in the planning phase, it’s time for UX/UI designer to begin their work. This is the basic process of designing a website:

Sitemap

A sitemap is basically a planning tool for the design and structuralization of your website. It’s build-up the layout so that the end-users can easily find what they are looking for. A well-structured sitemap will make your website searchable by all search engines, offering users closer search results based on the keywords.

Wireframes

A wireframe is also known as a “skeletal frame” or a “screen blueprint” that illustrates the elements of a website. The wireframe act as the foundation of visual designs. Thus, it should be simple, focusing on the layout and content of each page.

User interface

User interface (UI) design is the process of building interfaces, focusing on appearance or style. It allows admins to control machines effectively and efficiently. A good UI should build the interaction between the user and the product as smoothly as possible.
