The use of the Internet in public health practice is becoming increasingly widespread. The Internet is an important tool for supporting the mission and core functions of local health departments. However, most local health departments have limited resources and technical capacity to develop, deploy, and encourage use of large and complex Web sites.

The development process, key functions, and key factors in the success of this effort are described.
