Methods

In order to achieve simple concepts, many different questions need to be asked. There are no clever tricks, cheats or insider secrets, just simple logical approaches, in answer to questions asked.

Things to consider before any design idea is approached.

• Why do you require a website?
• What Type of site is required?
• What Type of content is required?
• Target your audience
• Functionality of the site
• Themes and overall look

Once you have a good understanding of what is wanted overall, simple methods can be used to create a site that is maximised for the purpose it serves. To create a design for the sake of having one, will result in not only an incorrect approach, but a meaningless outcome.

Some methods used by MIS are explained in greater detail under the sub headings, Users,Content and Style.
