Professional website production involves a lot of complex, interdependent tasks and requires an experienced team of people to get everything done. As you embark on your adventures in web design and/or web management, a good first step is to understand this production process from start to finish — and the people involved — so you have a holistic picture of what to expect and know where you fit in along the way. In fact, even though many design firms tout their mastery of the web-production process as a selling point when they’re trying to win bids, the truth is that most firms follow the same or similar process: Define, Design, Develop, Deploy. The client then gets to handle “Phase Five” — Maintenance!

In Chapter 1, I introduce you to the different types of roles and responsibilities associated with the web-production process. In Chapter 2, I take you through the whole production process, showing how design agencies and in-house design teams manage Web projects from start to finish.
