I have been checking some information regarding building website. As someone who is not a webmaster all I need to know and all I really want to know is a well-prepared schedule –> step by test agenda what needs to be done.
Here are some ideas what you should expect from company/people who will build you a website or at least make sure they will cover some of those steps:
project schedule
- do some research –> what exactly do you want, check the best websites (from your area of interests),etc.
- define goals
- define audiences
- inventory and reorganize the content –> if you have old website or you have content which you want to publish on your new website
- gather technical requirements
- choose the right platform
- design layout of your website (don’t forget it should fit to your company’s logo)
- usability testing
- build the website
- develop a management plan for the website
- update and manage the content
- quality test
- user acceptance test
- double check for any bugs after user test
- launch the website
this is the suggestion and every of those points should be develop.
