Whether you are a Designer, Developer or General Manager, it provides all the knowledge you need to oversee any aspect of site administration. As a result, you can be sure that the decisions you make are based on the best available information.

"Very clear and well written...genuinely useful"

The Website Manager's Handbook is described by leading web-commentator Gerry McGovern as "very clear and well written...a lot of practical depth...I'm sure that someone managing, particularly a large website, would find it genuinely useful". It has also received many other positive reviews from industry journals & university lecturers.
