LO2- Plan an interactive media product Sitemap + Wireframes

A day out in Doncaster.

The client is The Culture campaign. They just set up days out in Doncaster and and want a website that will give people from Doncaster and people who are visiting ideas on how to spend their time in Doncaster.

Client needs

The client need the website to include links to the websites of the businesses, images of the businesses and google maps links. They also need multiple pages including a home page, a page for days out, a page for nights out and a contact page along with the possibility of sub pages and drop down options for easy access. The website needs to be visually appealing in order to interest people. They also want a relatively low bounce rate, However there will be links to the websites of the businesses themselves.

Users' needs

The product needs to be easy to access and navigate to allow a large number of people to use it. The images need to have a small file size in order for my site to run more smoothly and quickly. The website needs to include places to go and links to the sites so that people can book to go or find out more about the places. they may also want a contact form ignorer to ask questions or suggest new places to include.

Purpose

The purpose of my product is to give people ideas for days out in Doncaster. This will help people know what options are available to them related to ways that they can spend their day.

Target audience

The target audience of may product is people who are looking for ideas of things to do in Doncaster. It is suitable for people of all ages, gender and sexualities. It can be used by all social grades as there will be options throughout many different price ranges. It is mainly for people who are local to Doncaster and its surrounding areas such as Sheffield and people who are visiting Doncaster for a trip or who stayed over after coming to see the races who are wanting to spend their day in Doncaster before they go home.

Pages

First of all I will have a home page which will include dome images of places in Doncaster such as the CAST Theatre. This is to give people an overview of what the website is. Next is the Days out page which has the Subpages Couples days out, days out with family, Days out with friends and solo days out. this gives people ideas on different places they can go for a day out with more specific catagories based on who they will be with. Similarly to days out, Nights out has the subpages Couples nights out, nights out with family, nights out with friends and solo nights out. Again, much like with the days out subpages, it gives people ideas for nights out based on who they will be with.

What platform will I be using?

I will be creating a website because the product is intended for people of all ages and websites are typically easier to access for people over 50. the company could have created an app which would have been effective, however an app may be more confusing for them. It also allows people who don't have a smart phone to access it as it can be accessed on a computer and even if they don't have a computer they can gain access to computers at places like libraries.

When I made my wire frame I decided to add another option for solo days out and solo nights out for people who want to do some solo activities.

These are my Wire Frames. They show what I want the pages of my website to look like.
