  • Identify Target Audience: Understand who will be using the site (e.g., travelers, business users).
  • Competitor Analysis: Look at other car rental websites to see what works and what doesn’t.
  • Feature List: Create a list of features you want (e.g., car search, booking system, payment processing, user reviews).

2. Design

  • Wireframes: Sketch basic layouts for different pages (home, search results, booking, user account).
  • User Experience (UX): Focus on intuitive navigation and a smooth booking process.
  • User Interface (UI): Design a visually appealing interface with consistent branding and a responsive design.

  • JavaScript: Implement interactive elements (e.g., car search filters, date pickers). Libraries like React or Vue.js can be useful for dynamic content.

Backend

  • Server-Side Language: Choose a backend language (e.g., Node.js, Python, PHP, Ruby).

  • Security: Ensure secure transactions by using HTTPS and complying with PCI-DSS standards.

4. Testing

  • Usability Testing: Test the website with real users to identify any usability issues.
  • Performance Testing: Check the site’s performance and optimize for speed and responsiveness.
  • Security Testing: Perform security checks to protect against vulnerabilities.
