3. Content Management Systems• Cost of entry is lower• Less skill required• More rapid build / delployment• Blog• Extensions

4.  Software TestingTesting is hard!  WHY?• The test team is the last line of defense

against incomplete worko Requirements changeo Developers often are "in their own world"

and not meeting with the business or project stakeholders

• The test team is often provided the least amount of time and resources

• BUT, there is hope!  :D• A strong test team can save a project by getting involved early

o "Design testing" and Planning• Planning and prep work is done early to best prepare for when code is

ready to test.  There is no time to waste during test execution.• Test team should Demo any Completed test.  A feature/requirement

is not completely tested until it is demo'd to the business!   

5.  SEO, Social Media, Content CreationWe create websites to get hits (leads) and build credibility online, so SEO > Social Media > Content Creation are very important!

get too expensive and ugly
