Exploring the Basics On Your Own
Now that you learned how to plan a Website, set up a site in Dreamweaver, and worked
with both new and existing pages, you’re ready to apply these skills and techniques to your
own Website(s).
1. Use planning phases and questions to complete the research and develop a
Creative Brief for your own site.
As you work through the process, remember to be detailed. Start the process of developing
your site by:
•
Considering the purpose, goals, and market for your site
•
Exploring who the audience is and what their needs are
•
Taking stock of content and assets that are already available
•
Determining what elements will need to be created
•
Developing the site structure
•
Setting up the file structure
The Creative Brief is a document in which you organize all the research and work that was
done on the site in Phase 1. This can help you coordinate the efforts in later stages while
making it easier to stay on track in the development of the site you are creating.
2. Use the Site Definition dialog box to set up your site in Dreamweaver.
Site setup will include the creation of the local root folder in which all your site files will
be stored.
