Once we have your project questionnaire and Google Analytics access we start the sitemap process, this is managed by Sophie. The first stage is analysing the last 12 months of analytics data for your current website so we can see how each page is currently performing.
We then spend time on the keyword research to ensure we are using the highest value and most relevant keywords for your website navigation and take a look at your competitors websites.
Using the analytics data, SEO best practices & user experience knowledge Sophie and her team will provide you with their recommended sitemap and run through this with you on a call where any questions can be answered and amends can be made.
This will be in the form of a tree diagram and will give you a breakdown of all the pages for your new site and their hierarchy.
This may result in a sitemap with more pages than included in your project so we’ll give you a quote for any additional pages or we can launch with a list of essential pages and add the remaining as a phase 2 or you can add them yourself once you’ve had your training.
You can make as many changes to the sitemap as you like and then once you’re happy with it and signed if off we move onto the design stage.
