As a website developer I have had the opportunity to speak with hundreds maybe thousands of people throughout the years. I found that there are a lot of people out there that want a web site but they are not sure about what they want to say.

I also have seen people build their website without any thought into what they wanted their website to represent. Websites that have not gone through the process of brainstorming ideas do not do very well. So it is important to take the time to have a brainstorming session before you begin the process of putting your ideas on your website.

Brainstorming is just a fancy word for “thinking of everything that you can” about your business, your product and how you can be of better service to your customer. It is the process of taking out some time uninterrupted to think of how you’re going to accomplish your goals for your business.
