I am a full-time SOHO professional with 5 years of experience in website building. I have received many corporate orders and have some ideas about building corporate websites. Therefore, I would like to sort out some of my immature experience for reference by my colleagues in website building. Learn together. If there is anything inappropriate that I have said, please feel free to criticize and correct me.
Nowadays, the trend of e-commerce is becoming more and more obvious, and every company wants to use the Internet as a powerful weapon to promote its products. Therefore, many companies have set up their own websites. During the pandemic, many small and medium-sized enterprises feel that it is shameful not to have a website of their own. Even though the number of visits to the company's website every day is very limited, the effect is minimal, but for those of us who do For SOHO colleagues, this is a good opportunity to make money because our prices are much lower than those of ordinary professional companies. But we also need to streamline and complete tasks professionally, because this is our job.
For website building, the emergence of CMS has greatly reduced our workload. Of course, now a large number of CMS providers such as SS, DreamWeaver, Empire, and Dongyi are rushing to launch their own products, which has greatly affected our work. It is a great help. If the customer's requirements are not too strict and the functions are not so complicated, we can just use the entire CMS, make templates, tags, and HTML to complete the task perfectly. But most of the Sometimes, our luck is not so good. We encounter some very "unruly" customers. We also need to have solutions, find out the unruly points, and defeat them one by one. First of all, please allow me to start analyzing the functional requirements of the corporate website:
1. Product display and sales, this should be the most basic and extensive demand. If your customers are strict, after building a website, you will definitely become an expert on their company's products. Regarding this function, I feel that it is difficult for other mainstream CMS to cope with the emergence of professional enterprise website building CMS. If the customer still has a lot of requirements, I will suggest him to buy an enterprise website building CMS, and then I will help him redesign it. But many times customers are unwilling to pay twice, and we have no choice but to watch the orders disappear.
2. News is actually an article system (information system). Each CMS has a different name. Generally, CMS can handle this function. Besides, CMS was born from the womb of the news management system. No matter how you forget your roots, you cannot forget it. Old Ben.
3. Internal OA. For small and medium-sized enterprises, they may ask you to build an internal OA. Enterprises are very economical and have an "ERP" in place when they want to build a website. Of course, this is not very easy. It's possible. If the customer makes such a request, we will be confused. Why? Develop it yourself? Then we can't finish this one order in 2 weeks. How about cobbling together mainstream CMS or other messy OA programs? That will happen I can't manage it myself and keep cutting. I had no choice but to find a professional corporate website CMS to help me, and again and again I watched the orders being lost...
4. Some design and fashion companies may also require you to use very gorgeous functions, such as all FLASH, all AJAX, etc., which for me has challenged the limit. It’s not that their money is not high, but sometimes you are really incompetent. Can DreamWeaver help you with this? Can the Empire help you with this? Neither can.
Of course, there are many cases of lost orders, such as poor eloquence, wrong timing, etc., but if the order is lost because I can't find a suitable CMS, I feel very sad and helpless, which also prompted me to develop a set of this system myself. In terms of CMS. Combining the website building needs of these enterprises and some of my own experiences, I began to develop my Shanrui enterprise website building system (www.shanrui.net) in 2006. I made a requirement for it during the development process: even if I write 10,000 more lines of code, the user should move the mouse less. FlashRui is not simple. I started using it in my own lists in 2008. I don’t know if friends who are reading this article have used this system of mine. I can’t say it’s not good, nor can I say it’s good. But after using this system, I lose very few orders and can do things smoothly. It’s much easier, haha, I still need it for my 83M2 house.
Looking back at the journey I took to build a corporate website, it was actually quite good. I felt that I lived a very fulfilling life. Although I often went to bed at dawn, of course it is much better now. After all, I have my own "product". Now that I have my own reputation, I will also make a small advertisement here: If I have friends in this field or colleagues who have corporate website building needs, we can cooperate (QQ: 187197045), and we will definitely win-win together. In addition, I also held "Love Activity", as long as you have "love", Shinrui Business Edition will be given free of charge. The reason for holding this event is because I came here the same way, with the support of many big birds. Thanks to the friends who helped me when I was a kid, thanks to the companies that didn’t give me orders, and thanks to myself.
