flair, making it easy for people to be drawn into what they are saying about
your business, services or products - see

What Are the Things You Need to Know Before Setting Up Your Website?
by: Dale Lawrence
<< back to Articles Index
The first step is to follow a marketing plan. Creating a website should follow
the same blueprint as creating an offline business. If you can’t sell your
website idea to an investment banker, why would you proceed? The rules are the
same. Far too often, people create sites without a business plan and a marketing
plan. Start off with an executive statement that describes what your company
will look like when it grows up then follow it with a business plan. If you are
new to it, MS Office has a basic template that will guide you through the
process. Once you understand your business goals, then create a marketing plan
that has the steps to fulfil your business goals.
Second step, you need to understand the technology. This will help you plan your
website business and use the correct tools. There are great books available that
can give you a basic understanding of each.

Developing technology solutions follows four steps:
1) Analyze and project the overall requirements of how the system should work, including
determining alternatives and technology budgets.
2) Design and choose the technology carefully and understand how all the
hardware and software systems are to be integrated.
3) Implement the technology structure together and test it out to make sure it
works the way you intended. This should include the hardware installation,
configuration and setting up the network and software applications.
4) Maintain the technology processes fix any bugs and make improvements to the
website.
Next, you should design the website. Whether you are using a WYSIWIG (what you
see is what I get) or hire a website designer, ensure you follow the flow of the
site to ensure you don’t lose your customer. Usability testing is critical for
the success of any site and most designers do not put enough attention to this.
Probably the most important piece of advice is to work within your means. Do not
over-reach your capabilities when spending your money. Work with your team to
determine where your resources should be spent and don’t forget promoting your
site. Motivate your employees with incentives and gifts and they will work
harder for you. This will save you money in the long run, because often a gift
is less expensive than additional payroll.
