Title: Site Map

About this Guide

A site map shows the main sections and sub-sections of a web site. Therefore, it effectively determines the navigational hierarchy and labelling of the site as well.

There are a number or ways of presenting a site map. The Site Map template attempts to balance the architectural integrity required of a structural representation of a site with the need for visual clarity.

The 3 most common tools for representing site maps are: Powerpoint, Microsoft Org Charts, Visio. The sample included uses Powerpoint as most people have this application and can use it easily to manipulate and distribute (using the copy and paste functions and connectors). There are two simple style options to suit your needs.

Note: the Site Map (with storyboards) is also an important Schedule to the Contract (see Section 2.9.1)
