Publish a Website in Six Steps
These are the basic six steps involved in developing a website and help new web users understand the process involved in developing a website.
Think about the problems your website can help solve in making your business run more efficiently. A web site is designed to help improve your business. Step one involves evaluating your business and determining ways to improve. You could want an on-line web store, a client login, employee timesheets, a way to increase your target market in our global village, or just a simple informational website.
Create a site map (a.k.a. table of contents) for your web site. This is the road map to your web site. Without an effective site map your web site will have no direction and thus visitors will turn away fast. When creating your site map, think about what your visitors want to see on your website, then write down the pages (and sub-pages) you want on your website.
Select a domain name and hosting plan that fits your web site needs. A domain name is like a link to your hosting service. The hosting plan actually stores and displays your web site online. Make sure you choose a plan that will be able to accommodate your web space requirements. If you are unsure of which plan fits you best, we will help you.
Choose a design style and functionality based on your target market's ability to use your web site. Your web site is actually not for you, it's for your visitors. It is ideal to cater to want they want to see, so it is important to know your target market and how they spend time on the internet.
Complete web site with all proper scripting and technologies. At this point we take full control of the site and turn your vision into hundreds of lines of web scripting and database structuring. Once this is done, we post everything in a temporary location for your approval.
Update all content and post on-line for public viewing. This is the exciting part because your website is now alive and open to the public.
