This helps keep the layout of the page strong and consistent and tells you and your clients how you go from the homepage to the other parts of the site. Wireframing is important so that you have your ideas out and laid out before you ever start coding. Getting this idea of what you want before one makes the process of visualizing everything that much easier for both yourself and the client.
