Product Description
If your success relies upon on a website in any way, this book is a MUST READ.
Million Dollar Websites is the book you read before initiating the creative and technical aspects of the website process.
Whether you have a million dollar budget, building your own, or somewhere in between, Million Dollar Websites is the definitive non-technical guide that reveals best practices of the web elite to help you get it right - the first time.
It is Time to Update the Definition of a Website
The website has historically been viewed as a technical fete, connecting pages and links. Author Rebecca Murtagh believes it is time to update the definition of the website to reflect the vital role it plays for businesses and brands in today's digital, social landscape.
The Website is NOT a Project
Despite good intentions, millions of websites emerge from the fatally-flawed gauntlet of project-dom unable to deliver results. Rather than a project, with a beginning and an end; the website must be a dynamic extension of the brand, able to adapt and respond to the competitive landscape, visitor expectations and business goals.
The Website is a Business Asset
As the ultimate destination for a business or brand, the website should support goals, deliver value, promote brand, interaction and conversion; one visitor at a time. It is imperative that the business take ownership of the website as the strategic asset it can, and should, be.
The High-Performance Website Never Begins With Design
A new website or re-design should never begin with design. Design is about solving problems. Designers, programmers, content writers, programmers and SEO's expect important decisions to be made before entering into the creative and mechanical execution of the website. This book walks you through the steps needed to be able articulate the information needed to enable your web team to deliver the optimum solution on time, on budget - making everyone a winner.
