About building

This section explains how an organisation might approach the building of a website that meets its needs. If you are not sure what those needs are, or what is possible, refer to the Planning section of this website before proceeding.

This is not a technical manual that will turn someone into a Web technical expert. It raises and explains key technical, content and design issues so that business owners, their staff and advisors can confidently brief technical experts about their e-business needs and manage those experts.

The main areas of this section are:

• Technical issues
• Choosing and preparing contents
• What do you want users to do?
• Marketing and your website
• Designing your website
• E-commerce - selling via your website
• Maintenance considerations
• Developing the website
