Project Web Page Guidelines

The main project web page should include the following:

1.

Title of the project.

2.

Short description of the project on the main page. (The complete project description can be linked to the project page.)

3.

List of team members, their roles, and links to their personal web pages and/or email addresses.

4.

Links to the project documents.(This needs to be done in a secure fashion. Only project members and the customers should have access to sensitive documents. You will receive instructions for doing this at a later date. For now, you do not need to put sensitive documentation on your website.)

5.

Links to agenda and summary of the team meetings.

Some useful tips:

• Organize the information well. The visitors should not be confused with your organization or navigation.
• Put a title header on each page.
• Choose the HTML title to reflect the textual page title. The title that appears in the header of the browser window should match the HTML page title. Try to have a unique title for each page. Choose a title that accurately summarizes the content of the page.
• Use only graphics critical to the information content of your page.
• If your pages are consistently longer than one-and-a-half screens, it may be valuable to repeat any navigational links at the bottom of a page as well as putting them at the top.
• Choose meaningful words or phrases for links.
• Keep your pages up-to-date. (The content as well as overall design.)
• Check your spelling.
• Write well!
• Materials that should not be placed on the web page:
  • Animation and annoying applets.
  • Music and sound clips.
  • HTML "blink" feature.
  • Copyrighted material without the permission of the owner.
  • Links to someone else's pages unless you know that they want that exposure.
