Designing a Successful Online Project With a System

A "technology business", in this blog's definition, is defined as any Web 2.0 project that involves building an online platform, a website, a mobile application, a facebook/twitter/foursquare application, etc.

This blog will mainly focus on building applications/tools rather than selling a physical product (e-commerce).

The goal of this system is to help you design/build a project from beginning to the end, while getting exposed to all areas of building a "technology business". The end product is a document that has all the steps so any other person can implement the project.

5 steps to building a complete business proposal/project:
  1. research
  2. feature development
  3. application visualization
  4. marketing
  5. monetization
It is often very easy to over-do things and never get anything done.  It is vital to keep the project simple, small, and organized at the beginning.  Using an agile/scrum like approach is handy and keeps things going.

Quote of the day: "Reward success and failure; punish inaction."

The following blog posts will summarize the results for each of the phases above.  Please use the category "project" to follow related posts.
