The Neon Web Studio team has created some questions to help you think through building your new Inspire Website. These questions are designed to help you think identify what is important to your organization and decide what needs to be communicated on your website. We also included a downloadable document of this exercise if you want to share it with different members of your team.
Once you work through these questions, we recommend that you read: Creating the Information Architecture for your Inspire Site.
