Synopsis

This guide to maintaining and updating web sites identifies the issues and offers the solutions needed to move from performing basic maintenance tasks - such as hyperlinks, tools for analyzing broken links, and HTML compatibility - to advanced maintenance issues such as server overloads, search-and-replace programs for detecting obsolescence, and identifying security problems. In addition to these issues, this book provides coverage of content updating issues (such as date and time listings, rotating pages, graphics and banners) and tools (such as HTML, ActiveX, Shockwave, and Java). Readers will find practical business perspectives on both content and design updating topics such as: promoting and updating content with bulletin boards and chat; organizing and developing publication cycles for periodicals; workgroup updates; broadcast updates and push technology; running database-driven sites; gaming, virtual world, and virtual classroom updates; site makeovers and case studies of design evolutions; and standardizing site architecture to increase efficiency.

Quatrième de couverture

The definitive guide to maintaining and updating Web sites that keep visitors coming back again and again.

There are two types of sites on the Web today: dynamic sites and "ghost towns." A ghost town, as one would expect, is empty, static, and rarely worth the trip. A dynamic site, on the other hand, works well with the latest technologies and standards, doesn′t overload, is free of outdated content, regularly offers improved interface and design features, and always has something new to excite visitors′ interest.

The key to having a dynamic Web site is ongoing maintenance and regular updating. This book/Web site package arms you with the tools and techniques for achieving both these ends quickly, easily, and inexpensively.

Jeannie Novak and Pete Markiewicz identify the key maintenance issues and offer you solid solutions for basic and advanced problems––from analyzing broken hyperlinks and HTML compatibility, to server overloads and search–and–replace programs for detecting obsolescence. They explore important updating issues and the latest updating technologies such as ActiveX, HTML, Java, and Shockwave. And, with the help of examples and case studies, they fill you in on proven methods for making your site as dynamic as possible, including:
∗ Promoting and updating content with bulletin boards and chat rooms
∗ Site makeovers
∗ Running database–driven sites and online catalogs
∗ Broadcast updates and push technology
∗ Gaming, virtual world, and virtual classroom updates
∗ Standardizing site architecture for optimal efficiency

Internet World Guide to Maintaining and Updating Dynamic Web Sites shows you how to keep your site fresh, alive, and running at maximum efficiency.
