Websites

What skills do you need to build a business website?

A business website usually needs several connected skills, even when one person covers more than one role:

  • Strategy and content: Goals, audience, messaging, offers, and page planning.
  • User experience and design: Navigation, page structure, visual hierarchy, and accessible interaction.
  • Building and publishing: Templates, reusable page sections, integrations, and tools marketers can maintain.
  • Findability and quality: Search engine optimization (SEO), accessibility, performance, and testing.
  • Delivery and measurement: Project management, analytics, launch planning, and ongoing improvement.

A small site may combine these responsibilities, while a larger or more specialized project may need several people.
