Use Cases for your Sitemap Design

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Websites and mobile apps start with a prototype.
When you design a web project, the first and most fundamental step is crafting its structure and logic.

Having an idea is great, but if you’re serious about it, among other things, you’ll need to think through your projects and assess the scope of future development. Octopus.do allows you to collaborate with your teammates and rapidly develop the structure together. Once you have your idea, market data, and the prototype, it’s time to show everything to an investor.

Whether you’re a digital agency designing and developing a huge website or if you have a small pet project, everything starts with an idea and a structure.

  • You’re looking for a web-designer, programmer, or a digital marketer to help you build a single project or for full-time employment. You sourced and screened every possible candidate, and the time has come for a test task. Hence, you’ve written design specs for the task and created a sitemap or application structure that’s available online and can be easily accessed. Both brilliant specs and a comprehensive visual structure will help you find the right person faster.

  • You’re looking to find the most beneficial partner to develop a web project, or you want to run through a tender procedure. Structure your project, make copies, and send them out to every contractor so they can assess the timeline and costs. Once a contractor looks through your prototype, they can easily add the needed working hours and rates via the Estimates panel.

  • You had a meeting with a potential customer or partner and discussed the future project, but the conversation lacked in detail. Drop them a link to the sitemap builder so they could generate the project’s structure and get back to you. Now everything is specific, and you can clearly evaluate the scope and costs of the project.
