Web Development Life Cycle
- 2. Websites are like a published product for any business and similar to any new project, even a website needs planning. This planning is the web development life cycle. A blend of right circumstances, right people, right tools, and enough effort can help make it happen and within a speculated time (as no one would like to wait for months for getting a website developed) Planning helps in turning average websites into outstanding!
- 3. World is run by web and the amount of information that a user can click and keep exploring, is like digging inside a rabbit hole, you keep digging and you go in further and there’s actually no end. Problem- Wish to make your products and services visible among people who are your target clients? Solution- Get a web presence, get a website. “Get ready to Express across the globe and put it all within your reach”- GET A WEBSITE!
- 4. Customers with technology advancement have more choices than ever, so get online, cos that’s where your customers are. Lets’ see what steps a WDLC aka Web Development Life Cycle follows…
- 5. Begin with planning; remember that’s the first step to anything. No planning means no protocol, and means not knowing, what to do next, when done with one thing. Plan carefully, as a website can make or break your business’s reputation!
- 6. Get a domain name or a web address Load content pictures, charts, products and price listings and anything else you want the customers to see. Customer security must never be overlooked; especially if yours is an ecommerce business where customers share their personal info, for who on earth would like to see their confidential information going public. Decide a layout. From a local specialty shop to a worldwide arena, this is what a website can lead your business to!
- 7. Who all are needed- a programmer, a developer and a customer Discuss, analyze, research because as much as you tell, those much are your chances of getting in return. No say, no results. Speak out, after all it’s your money, discuss your objective, where you are now, and where you vision to be 6 months from now? A website is like your business’s online face, so try keeping it clean and beautiful!
- 8. Choose multimedia structures, which you wish should be a part of your site Comply with legal terms, why get into troubles later? Discuss about links, navigation bar, graphics, color scheme, theme and keep asking as it will cost you nothing, but time. Content planning is crucial, so don’t hurry for no reader loves coming to a site that’s designed beautifully, but lacks the readability factor. Check for accuracy, completeness, relevancy, errors (no matter any type are harmful).
- 9. People don’t just use chrome, choose a multi browser site Don’t force your readers to wear their reading glasses, offer them an easy readability Don’t use colors just because it’s your favorite, choose something that goes ideally with your websites’ layout. Test the water before diving in, otherwise finding it too cold, your visitors may get turned away!
- 10. A usable site is important, don’t do it just because everyone else is doing. Ask for a sample; why make changes in the entire website when you can see it going one by one Check for the publishing site, hosting service (as nobody likes visiting a site that shows “404” or “503 forbidden” error)
- 11. Check functionality, downloading time, navigability, working links Get SEO or SEM services to help potential customers find your businesses, once it’s up and running. Ask for the follow up, who will do it and after how long It’s for your visitors and not just for the WEB
- 12. Building and forgetting is not needed, as when you plant a seed, just planting it in soil will not give you fruits; taking care, watering, providing necessary nutrients would cause fruiting. Similar is for your website, which will flourish only if proper maintenance is offered. Website Maintenance is important to keep your recurrent visitors and ROI count up!
