Organizing the Pages for your SEO

In the same way as the site, I begin organizing each web page with a handdrawn template. I keep it as simple and generic as possible so I can then make each page look like a unified page in a website.
This is the method I use:

1. On another blank piece of paper, draw a rectangle that is longer than wide and fills most of the page. This
rectangle represents a web page that is viewed with a typical browser on a typical screen.
2. At the top of this page, draw a horizontal line across the page, about 15% of the way down. This is your header.
3. At the bottom of this page, draw another horizontal line across the page, about 15% of the way up.
This is your footer.
4. Add a rough outline of how you want your content to look on your site. You might want to have columns or tables. Take some time and express your creativity. Figure 3.7 gives you a general idea of how your
site should look.
