I’m really enjoying Aarron Walter’s book, Building Findable Websites. Today I’ve noticed he posted a findability cheat sheet on his website which is not only an excellent quick checklist for managing websites but also gives you a good idea of the topics covered thoroughly in his book.
A little more digging revealed that Mr. Walter also wrote an article at A List Part introducing findability and its place in the web design world. Here he also explains how to get buy-in for findability at your company at different levels along with describing how each member of your project team contributes.
I find myself surprised and excited about the wealth of new information available in Building Findable Websites, from mark-up strategies and server-side strategies through working with JavaScript and Ajax, adding search engines and mailing lists, and maximizing content to draw readers in. Rather than a how-to or dry programming book, this one provides a holistic approach to build websites that are usable and effective.
