It leaves out colors, fonts and real images on purpose. It is like the floor plan of a house before anyone picks paint or furniture.<\/p><h2>Why It Matters for Your Business<\/h2><p>Wireframes let you agree on structure before money is spent on detailed design. A salon owner can look at a wireframe and say, &quot;Put the booking button higher,&quot; or &quot;We need a section for gift cards,&quot; while those changes are still quick and cheap. Fixing layout problems at this stage saves time later.<\/p><h2>Good to Know<\/h2><p>When you review a wireframe, focus on order and content, not looks. Ask whether a new visitor would understand what you offer and how to act within a few seconds of landing. It is much easier to move a gray box now than to rebuild a finished, styled page later.<\/p><div class=\"sfl-box\"><h4>Related terms<\/h4><div class=\"sfl-rel\"><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/mockup\/\">Mockup<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/prototype\/\">Prototype<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/sitemap\/\">Sitemap<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/information-architecture\/\">Information architecture<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/web-design\/\">Web design<\/a><\/div><\/div><nav class=\"sfl-pn\"><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/widget\/\"><small>\u2190 Previous<\/small><b>Widget<\/b><\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/woocommerce\/\" class=\"r\"><small>Next \u2192<\/small><b>WooCommerce<\/b><\/a><\/nav><\/article><aside class=\"sfl-aside\"><div class=\"sfl-box sfl-box-o\"><h4>Need this done right?<\/h4><p>Fixed-price websites from $800, built and launched for you in as little as 5 days.<\/p><a class=\"sfl-btn sfl-btn-w\" href=\"\/fr\/web-design-development\/#pricing\">See website packages<\/a><\/div><div class=\"sfl-box\"><h4>More in Design &amp; User Experience<\/h4><div class=\"sfl-chips\"><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/web-design\/\">Web design<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/user-experience\/\">User experience<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/user-interface\/\">User interface<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/mockup\/\">Mockup<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/prototype\/\">Prototype<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/sitemap\/\">Sitemap<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/information-architecture\/\">Information architecture<\/a><a href=\"\/fr\/learn\/glossary\/navigation-menu\/\">Navigation menu<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/aside><\/div><script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"DefinedTerm\",\"name\":\"Wireframe\",\"description\":\"A wireframe is a simple black-and-white sketch of a web page's layout that shows where content and buttons will go, without final colors or images.\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/sitefitters.com\/learn\/glossary\/wireframe\/\",\"inDefinedTermSet\":{\"@type\":\"DefinedTermSet\",\"name\":\"Business Website 101 Glossary\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/sitefitters.com\/learn\/glossary\/\"}}<\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn \/ Glossary \/ Design &amp; User Experience Wireframe Explained.
