Web Site Design & Maintenance

The following is an outline of the specific tasks involved in the successful development of an effective web site. This is the process I follow to completion:

  • register domain name

  • choose web site hosting provider

  • define "the message"

  • create navigation system

  • build graphic elements (based on look and feel of logo/image)

  • create site skeleton

  • write/place content

  • build keywords/phrases and site description metatags in preparation for search engine registration

  • test in multiple browsers

  • upload to web host

  • establish POP email accounts and email forwarding (yourname@yourdomain.com)

  • register with search engines

  • maintain and update

  • periodically check search engines for ranking on keywords/phrases pertinent to site traffic
