Web Application Analysis

[said_fox]

Hi,
I have got a new job at a company meant by web development. My manager asks me to make an analysis for a supposed project ( website ). I searched the web for "Website analysis" to find any tutorials about how making such analysis or plan for a website, but what I found was services offers statistics plugins for the website.
I want any resource that teach me or tell me about the analysis as a plan for the website before start development. Any one can help please? :confused:

That's a pretty open-ended request. If my manager were to ask me that, I would reply with a number of questions to narrow down precisely what he/she is actually looking for. Does he/she want an informal technical analysis of ways to accomplish the customer's requirements; or a formal software design document with risk analyses, schedule estimates and manpower requirement, return on investment anaysis, etc.?

Hi,
My manager needs the first option,Does he/she want an informal technical analysis of ways to accomplish the customer's requirements. Is this analysis supposed to be a description of the supposed website? However, I need to know how can I make this analysis. I have a book talks about The application development process briefly, as an introduction to CGI using Perl. As its being a brief text, I need more examples and understanding for the following items:
Define need for a solution.
Analyze the requirements.
Create an implementation plan.
Perform top level design.
perform in-depth design.
Create the application.
Test the system.
Deploy the system.
Maintain the system.

I need any online free resources about that, specially for web development.
