What
are some common misconceptions about Web sites?
Successful
implementation of a Web site is an ongoing and evolving process. Success
takes time and effort to promote the site and to make it useful. Once
a web site is "up and running" the work has just begun.
With a
properly constructed e-commerce site, credit card information is sent
to a "secure" server and encrypted so it is secure. Asking
clients to provide credit card information through regular email is
neither professional nor secure.
What
pitfalls can I avoid?
Before
starting to plan your site it is important to use the World Wide Web
to see how navigation schemes work. Look for similar organizations and/or
businesses to yours appear online. Look for ideas you like and those
you do not care for.
