"Allison,
I am so pleased with how your process has gleaned from me what Fortress does, and what sets us apart.
AND you have been able to visually show this.
I am absolutely impressed."

Just because our name is FUN, doesn't mean we don't know how
to WORK!
5-Step Testing Process
FUN 4 Business’ 5-step testing procedure is as follows:
- In-House Testing:
We ensure compatibility with popular
platform/browser combinations.
- Client & End User Testing:
We encourage you and some of
your chosen clients and associates to thoroughly test your
new or updated website. (See below.)
- Accessibility Testing:
This ensures text readers and
search engines can easily navigate your site, and
specifically includes the following:
- Ensuring you can use your keyboard to tab through your
site (instead of using your mouse),
- Running your website through an online text reader,
- Reviewing your code to ensure it is
high quality. For example, images should have descriptive
“ALT tags,” which speak to search engines and disabled
users, and
- Designing your website with a high contrast between the text
and background. For example, red text on a black background
can be unreadable to colour blind visitors (and just
annoying to the rest of us).
- Dynamic Content Review & Diarization:
Ensuring that all RRS feeds or automatically updated content
from outside sources are, indeed, updating properly.
Creating a practical timeline for updating critical sources
of information for your website (blogs, status updates,
etc).
- Fresh Look:
We recommend a site review about two months
after the official launch. Things can be missed during the
rush for launch. Our Fresh Look includes reviewing your
Search Engine Optimization, your uploaded file sizes and
appearance, your content display and organization, your
links, etc., and making sure your website is working at
advanced capacity.
Testing your website is a Team Effort.
Three people are involved in testing: You, me and your end
user.
It is important that you have a couple of your clients,
associates, friends, or family, test your website and give you
feedback.
Ask your testers the following:
- Do they like your website design and feel that it
accurately represents your business and matches your other
marketing materials?
- Did anything look funny?
- Did everything work properly?
If your tester had any problems, please collect the following
information from them:
- Platform,
- browser and version,
- monitor
size,
- text size setting with their browser or computer.
