Common Misconceptions about Resource Pages
Resources are not the more the better, but to match the type of site, the way to build the site, and the on-line goal. First choose the route, then look at the resources; first prepare the core content, then make up the tools; first solve the on-line problem, then slowly do the optimization.
Figure out the type of website and how it's built first, then see what resources are really needed.
Many websites are slow to go live, not because of the program, but because the information, images and copy are not ready.
Domain names, SSL, backups, security, statistics and go-live checks are all critical resources.
The resource page takes care of organizing the scope, and the review page then takes care of how to choose specific platforms and tools.
