About Web Development
Web Developers
might be tempted to focus only on issues such as content,
hypertext markup language (HTML) syntax, page layout, or the
latest and flashiest technologies while technical options for communication on the Web are
increasing.
However, Web Developers need a broader, more
process-oriented approach in order to articulate the
information content they wish to convey. Developers also
need to pay close attention to the characteristics and
qualities of the Web as a medium for communication so that
they don't merely duplicate practices intended for paper or
other media.
Developing Web content involves making the appropriate
technical, aesthetic, and usability choices to ensure
optimum effectiveness of the site.
Therefore, in developing information, web developers require
special skills in planning, analysing, and designing in
addition to web-oriented skills.
Web developers can draw on many existing concepts from
technical communication and software engineering practices
that take into account the unique characteristics and
qualities of the World Wide Web

Web Resources
--
Navigation should be clear and consistent throughout all
pages on the website
-- A Privacy Link
should be included to give your visitors the assurance that
they won't be spammed by having their information sold or
passed on
-- Text links should be kept in blue
-- Use lots of White Space
-- Avoid the use of
Animation or
Flashing Objects
-- SEO - the site's
design should provide for search engine optimisation which
is essential if it is to attract visitors via search
engines. Getting close to the top of search engines is not a
task for the faint of heart
-- The speed that your
page/s load is vital - should it take longer than 8secs to
load, the chances are your visitor won't have waited to view
it
-- A Site Map offres your visitors a 'road map'
to follow whilst on your site. Search engines also love Site
Maps which will improve your site's rankings with them
--
Avoid designing your site with
Frames. They are confusing for visitors, designers &
search engines don't index them properly
