Web Content Development Must be Prudent


Ricci Mathew - May 17, 2008
Publication on the website requires the process called Web Content Development. It is a bigger process than most people imagine if done properly. The process consists of researching, writing, gathering, organizing, and editing information.

During the initial planning phase one must take time to prepare and develop the content and define what is appropriate for the website. The very first question that must come to the mind is if we must include only the content that the user wants or can we put in something more? One must always remember that the web user is always short on time and they just scan pages quickly for information and they expect the site's structure, design to make things easier for them. Here are some of the other questions to ask before deciding on the content.

  • Who pays for the copyright if required?
  • Is the content relevant?
  • What type of content is needed?
  • Can already existing resource be used?
  • Does the user need the information that is being provided?
  • What exclusive content writing is required for the specific site?
  • Should it be interactive?
  • What about including graphics, video, audio etc?
  • How will the content be maintained /updated?

    Once the content has been decided, the next step is called information architecture which determines as to how the content is going to be arranged and linked. A professional web content developer of today will not have programming or designing skills but will be in a position to generate good content for a website. Quite often content developers have to be SEO (search engine Optimization) or SEM (Search Engine Marketing) specialists as well. About the author
