Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Project management is aggressively raising its profile in a context whereby new working practices force new ways of working on all managers. Project-based working has become a reality for all of us and technical managers particularly know that the cutting-edge computer know-how of staff is not, by itself, enough to ensure the successful resolution of a job of work. Web Site Project Management shows that the complexities of creating and delivering a commercial Web site can be overcome and in clean, direct prose walks the reader through the stages to completion. Friedlein outlines the attributes of a good project manager, explaining the scope and challenges of the role. He outlines a Web project method ("the framework for making decisions about the project") and goes into the different stages of the site project from clarification, definition and specification on to content, design, launch and maintenance. This could well prove to be invaluable. --Mark Thwaite
Review
-Andrew Bibby, Director of Projects, Razorfish
"It wasn't that long ago that the majority of Web sites consisted of static HTML pages containing text and graphics, and incorporating some basic functionality, such as online forms for collecting feedback, rollovers, and search functions." Read the first page

Good project management practice in a new context,
By A Customer
This review is from: Web Project Management: Delivering Successful Commercial Web Sites (Paperback)
Good project management practice doesn't change with the advent of new technologies. Therefore, many of the fundamental principles underlying this book should be second nature to any project manager with more than a couple of years experience. Where the book scores is in 2 areas:1. Setting these principles in the context of the new kind of projects which the web makes possible. This benefits project managers (like me!) who have managed software developments before but need a view of how to apply their experience. 2. Introducing good project management principles to people who have arrived at the 'manage a website development' role by other routes. Overall, a good summary of how to approach the job. But it does worry me slightly that some people think the book is a blinding revelation of how to manage a project - how have they been doing the job before?

UK-focused, real-world insight from a real PM,
By dan@docushop.co.uk (London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Web Project Management: Delivering Successful Commercial Web Sites (Paperback)
This was a good purchase: He has launched Channel5.com with a TV producers background, and it is good to see how he translated his skills across. Also, it is UK-focused and very much this-is-what-I-did. Lovely. Not too long either, very detailed, lots of lists and bullets - "scannable".

Someone else's hindsight is VERY valuable,
By A Customer
This review is from: Web Project Management: Delivering Successful Commercial Web Sites (Paperback)
Having just reached the final stages as a contractor on a mammoth commerical site I can echo Ashley's recommendations in this excellent book. Whether you are a designer, a manager, 'The Client' or a programmer, please buy this book, READ IT and save everyone a lot of hassle. Set limits on the client - project manage properly - be real about the whole project and document thoroughly. I was the designer on our project and was shunted all over the shop. With Ashley's book in my hand I would have been able to tell the managers, programmers and clients where to go. Very, very much an indispensible read. The Dilbert cartoons are spot on too!
