      Lessons Learned: Making a Great Website


      The staging of the DigitalFilipino.com Web Awards allowed us to have a point of reference on observations and suggestions that website owners could consider in building their site. This includes:
      • Need for management to participate in building the website. They should care about their online reputation and ensure that it will reflect what the company stands for and how its service can be used online.

        Most chief executive officers today obviously do not understand or appreciate their websites, as they hardly visit them. This creates a situation of ignorance. Although they may know how their physical store works, how it looks, how business is done, these can’t be said about their online counterparts. Website reviews should also be considered as a topic in boardroom meetings, with professional web designers providing advice as necessary.

      • Sites that use open source codes should be customized and fit to the look and feel of the company. This way, uniqueness and identity creation are achieved.

      • If the site has numerous products or contents, having a search feature will help the users a lot in finding the products they need. The terms of sale must also be fully disclosed to avoid surprises with buyers later on.

      • Content matters a lot. It should be up-to-date, informative, responsible and attuned to the purpose or theme of the site. It is inviting for the visitor to stay and learn more. The site should not be content overloaded, as it will make the user tire easily.

      • Websites are encouraged to have a strong emphasis on providing further service and support to clients. This is where cross-media customer communication should be harnessed or explored.

      • Visuals must be used wisely. A site does not have to be extravagantly designed but attractive enough to indulge its readers. The site must also guide the user on where to go or how to navigate within. This is where usability testing matters a lot.

      • The marketing aspect should be well thought of and consistent with one’s offline marketing strategies. It is disappointing to see when the website is not aligned or reflective of the company in its offline world. This cannot be done unless it is clear that it is serving a different purpose. Most sites were built without search engine marketing in mind therefore not taking advantage of social networks, social media, and the likes to drive traffic that may also lead to desired conversion.

      • Websites must provide a means for contact using more than just one method. But due to spam mails, a lot of companies are reluctant in posting e-mail address and fax numbers on their sites. Careful thought must be given on missed opportunities that may result to this.

      • No matter how beautiful a website is, if it is not search engine friendly, it misses the opportunity to be found online. Proper attention must be given to titles, description, keywords, assets, among others found in the site to maximize search engine exposure.

      • Proper care must be given on the back-end and coding of the site to ensure that it is fast loading.

" - Lemuel Cabia, Web Manager, De La Salle University, Manila.


      "We are proud to be a part of the Digital Filipino Web Awards. As the digital divide narrows, so does the great divide in socio-economic empowerment, and this is where Digital Filipino is best validated with its unflinching support for and the promotion of a Filipino Internet Community. We believe the Digital Filipino Web Awards honors thus, the best of the sites and services that are truly, profoundly impacting the Filipino’s quality of life." - Junie Agcaoili, Director for Corporate Communications, Chikka.com.


      "Having won the 2007 Digital Filipino Award for the Gifts Category has been an honor and a privilege for RegaloService.com. We thank those who have shown their confidence in us and voted for us as this eventually led to our being chosen as ADOC's 2007 Best ICT Practice from the Philippines. These recognitions make us proud and at the same time they also come as a challenge for us to continuously improve our service. More power to Digital Filipino!" - Reggie Bundang, Owner, RegaloService.com.


      "Winning the 2007 DigitalFilipino award for best government website has been a great honor and encouraged us to push the envelop and work harder to make our website live up to the lofty standards that DigitalFilipino has set. It has truly been a memorable, enriching and noble event - keep it up, it will go a long way in promoting digital excellence in the field of website development in our country and highlight the best of our local talents." - Lia M. Bautista, Head - Office of the Press Secretary - Information and Communications Technology Unit and Secretary General - International Media Office (Government Portal of Republic of the Philippines)

This award has boosted our spirits and confidence immeasurably." – Arnold Alvarez, Webmaster, Philippine Herbal Medicine
