LO2: Legal and ethical.

For my website I will need:
  • Pictures of bees and beehives.
  • A picture of a map of the UK showing where the most affected areas are.
  • Information on how bees work and how they help the environment.
  • Interviews from people who have worked with bees.
Since it is getting closer to winter there are not a lot of bee around so to have any chance getting pictures of bees then I would have to contact a Apiary to see if it would be possible to get some pictures there.
 If this is not possible get them from the internet, to avoid breaking any copyright laws I would have to ask them for permission to use their pictures for my website. For getting the interviews with people like the beekeepers I would need some proof of confirmation which allows me to do so, this can either be through a email or a signed document. The picture of the map which shows all of the affected areas can be created on Photoshop and all of the information on the bees can be obtained from the internet.
I want to get most of the materials for my website from Heely City Farm, this is because they are promoting bee-keeping. They have a small apiary on another site in Sheffield but it is private. So I would need permission from the owners from of the apiary if I can take some pictures there.

Launch Date:
From looking at my Gantt chart I would say that the launch date for my website would be in the week beginning on the 30th of November, that is when I take all of the feedback that I have been given from my teacher and my peers to improve my website. It will most likely be launched on the 4th of December.
Budgeting:
When creating this website there are many things that I need to consider in order to work out the budget for it. One of these things is finding a web host, this will allow me to have my domain name. These are some of the web hosting site i looked at and their prices:

  • www.34sp.com - £5.95
  • www.justhost.com - £2.70
  • www.names.co.uk - £4.99
  • www.westhost.com - £6.20
  • www.squarespace.com - £26 
One of the other things that I would have to consider is getting a dormain for my website. The best to do would be to rent one so I would only have to pay a small fee each year to keep it, the website GoDaddy would only $10 - $12 (£6 - £8) a year. The last thing that I would need to consider is the maintenance of the website and this is because my website is going to be informative so all of the information of the website will need to be updated. Also, after a while my website may begin to look outdated so I would need to take advantage of some of the new features of some of the newer websites.
People who use my website can sign up to it so they can receive updates and news alerts from the website. This would mean that I would have access to peoples personal information so I would need to apply a SSL certificate to the website to protect peoples information.
