Abstract: | ABSTRACT Back-of-book style Web site indexing enhances access to specific information in Web sites. To index a Web site requires the skills of traditional print indexing, plus more. This article discusses the importance of indexes on the Web, and specifically examines the indexing of the Australian Society of Indexers' Web site using the Web site indexing program HTML Indexer. Topics include working with Webmasters, software for Web indexing, how to choose indexable matter and depth of indexing, the idea of links as page number substitutes, the use of subdivisions, index style and display, and planning for updating the index. |
