typical mistakes when drafting technical specifications for website development

[subornaakter20]

We have talked about how to correctly develop a technical specification for creating a website. But even if you follow a good example, mistakes are inevitable.

Let's figure out which of them you are most likely to make if you are creating a technical task for the development of a one-page website or a business card website for the first time.

Often, a carefully developed technical specification does not contain information about the deadlines for the work.

I have always been concerned about the issue of moving to a fundamentally new level. So that the indicators would grow not by 2 or 3 times, but by several orders of magnitude. From a thousand visits to ten thousand or from ten thousand to a hundred thousand, if we are talking about a website, for example.

And I know that such leaps are always the result of painstaking work in five areas:

Technical condition of the site.
SEO.
Collection of site semantics.
Creating useful content.
Working on conversion.
And at the same time, every manager needs an increase in sales and the number of applications from the site at the moment.

Don't forget to specify them, as you risk stretching out the creation of the site for an eternity. Write the deadline in the header of the document or add it as a separate column.

Or you can be pedantic and set deadlines for each point of work on the site.

Loss of site access data
In addition to developing a web resource, the contractor often deals with domain registration and searching for hosting.

After these issues are resolved, the data for accessing the site often turns out to be lost, since the developer only needs them at the first stage, and the customer does not remember them at all.

But one day the site stops functioning because the hosting and domain were forgotten to be renewed. Thus, you can be left without an address for the web resource at all.

You should treat your login and password for accessing the site as your personal data.

Write them down and keep them where you keep your documents. Ideally, after the contractor has completed his/her activity, all data should be changed, since the human factor has not been cancelled.

Lack of clarity
Stick to the principle "it is better to see once than to hear a hundred times". The client and the contractor often think about the same things differently.

This is generally the most common situation.

For example, the customer wants the result to be an abstraction (picture below).

As a result, the performer gives the client something similar.

It is very difficult in this case to prove whose abstraction is more real. Both are right, and there is no one to blame.

And it is unclear who should pay for the reworking of the project. But if the client had attached an image of the final result to the technical specifications, it would have been possible to avoid a controversial situation.
