Without planning there is every possibility of any task going awry. This is also applicable to website redesigning. Some of the prominent considerations for planning website redesign are as follows.
o If all the parts of the website were working at optimum, usually there would not be any need to redesign the website. This implies that first of all you need to study the functionality of all the sections or parts of the website. One should not hesitate conducting a small research in this matter and try to get some feedback about the functioning of the various parts of the website from the visitors. This study or research can lead you to the parts that work effectively and efficiently and those parts that are neither working properly nor being liked by your visitors or prospective clients. Once you realize which part is not working perfectly you can focus the redesign work.
o Once the necessary parts and unnecessary parts of the websites are segregated you need to decide whether those parts have to refined or completed remove or have to be presented in another way by combining with other parts of the website.
o There could be some content on the website that you may find not necessary and so that content has to be deleted. On the other hand due to expansion of the company there could be a content that you may want to add to the website.
o From the study one can also find the parts of the website that are successful at drawing the attention of the visitors. When you compare the other parts with these parts you can come to know the difference and upgrade the other parts accordingly.
o The visual content plays a pivotal role in the success of most of the website. The images that have been used in your current website may be quite old and have a negative impact on the visitors. The process of website redesign needs consider embedding of the latest images and videos on to the website.
o It is also possible that an outdated technology has been used to embed the visual content on to the website. This can result into increase in the time duration for downloading the website. Nowadays no one likes to wait for long and modern technology permits embedding of images in such a way that the downloading speed and time is least affected. The web redesign process needs to consider this type of technical changes as well.
o The resolutions of the screens displaying the websites have changed a lot over the years. If your website is too old then resolution also needs to be considered for web redesigning.
o At times one needs to also consider the target audience and the speed of downloading for web redesign.
