What's Due in Phase # 2

There are four steps to consider in this phase.

Step 1: Site Map
The site map is basically a central place where the viewer can navigate to every page on the site.
Prepare the following:
1) Content Inventory Document. This document will list all the content items required to be on the site. The items will then be organized into categories. From these items and categories a site map is sketched, refined, and produced.
2) An html file for every page on the site, thus creating a framework for the whole site.
3) Site map: An HTML page including a hyperlink to every page on the site.

Step 2: Content Gathering, Writing, and Editing
In the process of designing the Web Site, you will need to gather content from the client, and from other places. You may also be called upon to create new content, and edit/reformat existing content.
Prepare a list of items under the following headings:
1) Existing items that need to be gathered
2) New items that need to be created
3) Items that need editing/reformatting.

Step 3: Technical Specifications
Decide the formats of all data files.
Prepare a report:
1) List the technical specifications that are required for this site.
2) List all the technical requirements that I am able to resource myself
3) List all the technical requirements that I will need to out-source.

Step 4: Navigation
Prepare a flow chart illustrating the navigational structure for the site.
The site may be linear (forward & backwards only).
The site may be jump-linear (jumping back to a higher level).
