Integrating Brand Strategy into Website Design

Now, more than ever, it is important that we stop treating a brand and a website as separate entities. Websites should be extensions of the brand, not separate.

A brand is more than a company’s logo, product, or tag line; it is the experience that customers associate with the company and the essence of the company.

A website is the online extension of a physical storefront, and there should be a seamless extension of brand identity between the physical store and the website homepage.

A bad website experience can affect sales and even permanently affect brand image the same way that a misdirected advertising message can.

Since customers are doing more and more of their shopping online, whether or not they are purchasing or researching, it is difficult to imagine separating brand strategy from your website strategy and design.

Below are examples of companies that I think are doing a great job of using their websites as direct extensions of their brand. Check out their websites to see more ways that they are extending their brand from in-store to online.

    I have been surfing on-line greater than three hours these days, yet I never discovered any interesting article like yours. It’s beautiful worth enough for me. Personally, if all website owners and bloggers made just right content as you probably did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.

    Nice. Its very informative about web design. Actually Web design is the process of planning and creating a website. Text, images, digital media and interactive elements are used by web designers to produce the page seen on the web browser. Web designers utilize markup language, most notably HTML for structure and CSS for presentation as well as JavaScript to add interactivity to develop pages that can be read by web browsers.
