I have searched a lot and haven't got any clear idea about document type design. I would like to know more about best practces for choosing document type hierarchy and other design considerations prior to document type creation.Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I think your question is very opinion-based and up to the individual.
But the way I usually do it is setting up a "Base" or "Master" doc type that holds all the regular fields which you always use on all pages, such as a headline, a content field, Meta Title, Meta Description and an umbracoNaviHide field.
After that i add a "Home" doc type, and a "Full Width" doc type which inherit from the "Base" or "Master" doc type. On the "Home" doc type I allow "Full Width" to be a child node.
This is my basic setup for almost any website.
I then go ahead and add contact, gallery and whatever doc type I might need for the particular project.
