Webmastering – What does it encompass?
January 10, 2007 – 7:12 pm“Webmaster” and “Webmastering” are terms that have been around since the early days of the internet and many people believe that it means one thing or another. The truth is that it’s a broad and general term that has to do with someone who runs the day to day operations of a website. Webmasters can be developers and most are but it requires and touches on a bunch of different niches including…
- Branding
- Marketing
- Advertising
- Development
- Creation
- Administration
A lot of people that start online businesses don’t take into account just how much and what is needed to become a true success online. Most simply figure and follow the dogma of “if you build it they will come” and really maybe in the early days there was a bit of truth to that but now you need to be on your game when it comes to promoting what you’ve built online. The best way that I’ve found to do most of this is through playing around and figuring out what works and what does not. The fact that the internet has so many players involved in it really showcases something that is true in the everyday physical world, the top 5% are pulling down great money and the other 95% want to be like that.
