Hello to all my community people :-) This is my 4th post and I'm thankful to everyone because I love this community. I'm sharing long blog here and microblogs on my Instagram(@designer.akash) page❤️😃

Before developing a website, as a designer, developer, or any agency we must have to know what are the requirements before developing a website...

1. Define your target & purpose

The defining target and purpose of the website is the initial step and we must have to know before doing anything.

1. Define your target audience along with the purpose of the website.
2. In order to create your website that meets the needs of the target audience, you have to define first: Who are those people? Why you’re making this website? What would you like to get out of it?

And if you failed to define it, then you'll design a website that will be aimless and useless.

2. Give a name to your website

1. Buy a Domain Name for your website: This is the second thing that you need after defining your target audience and purpose.
   Ex www.anydomainname.com

2. It’s a website address that people will use to get connected to your website.
