Design Process: UX Design: Page Layout
• After deciding how the entire content will be
divided and ordered, a designer should start
focusing on layouts of individual pages
• Basically, this is focusing on how the content
of each web page is going to be organized
– If two or more pages have similar layouts then a
layout of only one page can be designed
