What is the difference between web development and design?

Web development is the creation of web sites or web applications on the Internet. Web development can be as simple as putting up a one-page static HTML file for a small business, or as involved as creating suites of sophisticated relational database applications for thousands or even millions of users. Web development is distinct from web design; development is the creation of the underlying code and/or infrastructure of a site, while web design is the graphical presentation of the site. For example, a web designer might choose the color palette, select fonts, and lay out the elements of a web page; the web developer would write the HTML code that implements those choices.

Web development technologies such as LAMP and ASP.NET allow even tiny teams to create sophisticated architectures quickly, so large teams are usually not required even for fairly involved or substantial projects.

The web development industry has exploded as the Internet has become an ever-more pervasive component of the economy. There are more than 30,000 web development companies on the market today, and tens or hundreds of thousands of individual web developers.

The most common platform for developing web sites is probably LAMP. LAMP stands for Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP – the four core technologies that anyone can use to make a website. Linux is the operating system for the machine where the website resides, Apache is the web server, MySQL handles the database services and PHP is the script language that ties it all together. LAMP is available completely free, and anyone willing to put in the time to learn the technologies can do their own web development.

Web development technologies have dramatically transformed many sectors of the economy. Sites like Craigslist have completely changed the landscape of local classified ads, while auction sites like eBay have turned the garage sale concept on its head. Your business or company can deploy these same techniques and ideas to transform your industry – it just takes some development work. We make it easy for businesses needing web sites to get quality development without having to add huge new competencies or spend large amounts of money.
