Website wireframe

A website wireframe, also known as a page schematic or screen blueprint, is a visual guide that represents the skeletal framework of a website. The term wireframe is taken from other fields that use a skeletal framework to represent 3-dimensional shape and volume. Wireframes are created for the purpose of arranging elements to best accomplish a particular purpose.

The purpose is usually driven by a business objective and a creative idea.
