The audience of this remarkable book is extremely wide. First of all, this(thus) everyone who when or collided(faced) with questions of an overall performance personal or corporate a web-site. As a rule, the question of alteration of a site (so translation(transfer) of a word "redesign" unfashionably looks(appears)) rises, when:

• The old site does not bring due profit or does not arrange for other reasons
• The graphic design has become outdated or has ceased to please
• The old structure does not give an opportunity to publish all necessary information on a site.

Everything, you solve, that more so to live it is impossible. And here the hell kromeshnyj begins. Whether to invite foreign experts? Who and how will define(determine), what in an old site well, and what is bad? Who will collect together a content and will distribute(allocate) it(him) properly for representation on a web? Who will make the schedule of works - and the main thing, what works in this case are necessary? Whether the new graphic design will be better former? Who and how will check up quality of works and udobnost a site for users?

Without the certain methodology, all aforesaid becomes a nightmare, a headache and simply expensive chaos which results quite often set the client thinking - whether and so the old site was bad?

There is also other contingent of readers: it, actually, a web-developers. A command(team) in-or autsorserov on which shoulders rather uneasy problem(task) lays down: to alter the existing version of a site, considering all requirements of the client, feature of an audience of its(his) site, feature of business and submission of a content.

Questions will be not less. What exactly does not suit the client in an old site? It(he) prefers what design? Whether it(he) wishes to use the newest technologies? What to do(make), if having approved the first version of design, it(he) in some days goes on popyatnyj, speaking, what it(him) is simple not so have understood?

The book Kell Goto and Emili Kotler is intended both for those, and for others. These(thus) remarkable the American write easily, with humour, and the main thing, very competently. Their book gives a basis on which it is possible to build any project, whether it be creation new or redesign existing a web-site.

As a matter of fact, Goto Archipelago and Kotler offer the methodology. And any large and complex(difficult) project, as is known, did not manage methodology. Briefly, it is compressed, exclusively on business, to you will tell, that it is necessary to do(make) at this or that stage of development. Will give examples, questionnaires, tables and schemes(plans) by means of which you can with honour leave any difficult situation, having achieved excellent(different) results.

One more plus of this methodology which authors have named " Base process " - it(she) is dynamical and flexible. You can start to use it(her) from any phase, can borrow separate technics(technical equipment) and receptions, all the same effect will be immediate and obvious. To familiarize with it(her) it is rather useful both to the customer - for the owner of a site, and developers. The first it will save money and force (they will pay that is necessary for them), and the second - forces and money (they will quickly make that is necessary).

Certainly, the volume of the book has not allowed authors to state all of a technique in detail and carefully, with plentiful deviations and digressions to the theory. To the reader the outline - strong, checked up is given by time and experience:

• Planning and gathering of requirements of the client
• Designing
• Graphic design
• Technical realization
• yuzabiliti testing
• Installation and transfer ready a web-site

After that you will define(determine) a direction of the further detailed elaboration of process and specificity of your work. Probably, you will agree not always with opinion of authors. And it is absolutely normal, because in creative work (which development, certainly, is, support and updating the web-sites) always is a place to search and self-improvement.

The name of the book rather precisely reflects its(her) maintenance(contents), but on a book shelf looks(appears) any imperceptible. Do not pass(miss) this book. Believe, even any separately taken chapter(head) will help(assist) you to achieve considerably the best results, and the main thing, to do(make) it more quickly, more pleasantly, working together with the customer, one command(team).
