Wireframing in web design

What is wireframing in web design?
As I see it, wireframing is just the "modern sketching".
When you plan how your website will look like, you simply wonder about all the possible ways of presenting the content. Sometimes it can be hard to imagine and remember all the ideas in your head, therefore as we live in highly digitized society on the market appeared several tools to do such imagination plan of the future website. The example can be Balsamiq tool, that I used, as above.
First slide presents the "home site" look of the photography website, that I find easy approachable.
The second example is already presentation on the tab of photos.
The third one is the phone look of the same website (one picture on the whole page).
I didn't know about such tools when I was creating my first photo-website, so I was describing everything by words in the notepad, or just drawing.
Now I can see some advantages of the tool, as it gives also some suggestions about the content and lining.

Here are the benefits of wireframing:
- Instigation of Layout and Structure
- Focusing on User Experience
- Clarifying Features
- Saving Time *(1.)

Next time when I'll be creating another website, I may use the suggestions from Balsamiq or from the other tool.

Applying PR Smith's SOSTAC Marketing Model to an Online Confectionery Start-Up

                                                                         *(1.) Going deeper in the Marketing theory, we analyzed the SOSTAC Marketing Model a systematic design and implementation of a digital marketing plan on the online Start-Up company 'Jellies & Jaffas'. SOSTAC is an acronym for the six core components to be considered when generating a marketing plan: situation (S), objectives (O), strategy (S), tactics (T), action (A) and control (C).  Each component represents a stage in the cycle of planning, and each stage is of  equal  importance  to successful marketing planning, implementation, and review (Chaffey & Smith, 2013).*(2.) What came to my attention is the curious fact, that SOSTAC is an extension of the traditional SWOT analysis, that I knew before and from my job training, that is a situational analysis of the strengths (S), weaknesses (W), opportunities (O), and threats (T) facing a business at the outset, when introducing a new prod

Inbound & Outbound channels

*1.) Inbound Marketing vs Outbound Marketing A simple fact of the matter is that there is no “one size fits all” strategy when it comes to marketing. There are a huge number of variables that you have to consider - from the type of message you’re trying to send to the type of audience you’re trying to reach - that will all dictate exactly how, where and most importantly why you should be contacting this particular set of people at this particular moment in their life. When it comes to exactly how you choose to spend your marketing budget, there are two main forms of marketing to choose between: inbound marketing and outbound marketing. Both essentially take you to the same destination, but the approach used to get there is wildly different. It’s a bit like choosing to take a plane to go on vacation versus driving across the country - you’ll still get exactly where you’re going, but the experience will be dramatically different along the way.
