Building Your Web Site

The building phase generally follows:

  • Laying out the basic site including navigation.
  • Generating or obtaining any required graphics (including scanning and retouching of photo images).
  • Collecting any text from existing digital documents, through OCR (Optical Character Recognition by scanning documents and converting them to text), or manually creating the text.
  • Building the basic page templates to be used.
  • Integrate a database interface if required.
  • Build forms if required
  • Put all the pieces together (text, graphic, database interface, forms, etc...) into a great presentation that sells your site contents.
  • Proof and test all pages and forms in client specified browsers (i.e. Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, etc...) This is an on going phase throughout construction.
