Web site design and development process
- Information gathering: Research surveys
- Planning: Before you start to build a website, Content development strategy | Register domain name, Choose web hosting | Information architecture | Data model: Data type, Data flow | Documentation: Request For Proposal | Licensing
- Design: CSS tools, Free fonts, Free photos, Emoji & icons
- Testing & delivery: Usability test, check browser compatibility | Web testing | Speed up websites: Web Ping, Software acceptance test plan | Promote your web
- Maintenance: Site backup & restore test, Software update (OS patch or CMS security update)
- Need help? Community, I need inspiration, Web design glossary
connection test
case 1: Access the server from outside network ex: WAN
Where are you? Access the server from outside network ex: Wide Area Network (WAN) or Local Area Network (LAN)
open the browser from outside network ex: Wide Area Network (WAN) or Local Area Network (LAN)
- and type the address: http://the.domain Note: Not Private network / Private IP address
- or use the remote website monitoring services: Web Ping
telnet
- telnet DOMAIN_or_IP PORT ex: telnet the.domain 80
- If connected. The console windows will show the message "Escape character is '^]'. " for Linux . Or show a blank window for Win If you want to end the telnet command. You can (1) press Ctrl + ] and (2) keyin quit to end the telnet.
- If failed. It will show the message: "telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused"
case 2: Access the server from inside ex: localhost or Local LAN
If you has permission to log in the server via SSH or Remote desktop service.
- (1)open the browser, (2)type the address: http://127.0.0.1
- Open Port Check Tool: Using browser to check the specified port of local machine from canyouseeme.org. it will make a mistake if the server hosted with shared external IP
- Linux command:
telnet
- telnet 127.0.0.1 80
- (after telnet-ed the web 80 port, key in) get + SPACE
- more on HTTP Check Port 80 with the Telnet Command
netstat ex: find MySQL 3306 port
- netstat -a | find "3306" (note: require the double quote symbol, not single quote symbol) for Win [3] or netstat -npl | grep 3306[4] for Linux
- more on List open ports and listening services
tools
- CurrPorts: Monitoring TCP/IP network connections on Windows
- PFPortCheck Program: check TCP/UDP port from localhost(where you installed the program) to portforward.com
- TCPView for Windows
troubleshooting steps
We met the trouble on WAN
- testing on WAN: Down for everyone or just me? Check by Web Ping
- testing on localhost:
- testing on LAN: Is service alive? The servers between LAN or with the same ip class (ex: 1.2.3.*) often without firewall limit.
- find the problem occurred: (1)local service (2)server to LAN (3)server to WAN
- other issue:
user client node
browser issue
- browser version: Check Browser Compatibility & Validation service or Validator: Check Markup or CSS syntax
- clear browser cache
- client temporary files
- clear server cache ex: Smarty Caching
