What is the difference between web design and web development?
Hello,
I am thinking of going into either web development or web design. I know the small differences, but what I really want to know which one makes for better for my career? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks David Brody |

As per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Designer a designer is more focussed on presentation, i.e. content, usability, appearance and structure. As per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_developer a Web Developer is more oriented towards the mechanics of making that experience possible, e.g. databases access, security, PHP vs Java/JSP, dynamic HTML with Ajax etc.

Thanks David Brody I find that if you have a good understanding of the mechanics of a site then this makes you more useful in the eyes of an employer who may well require a 'jack of all trades' kind of person. I come from the c/c++ background dating back 20 years and have found a wide range of skills is usually preferable to being a 'guru' in a couple, especially in a fluid job market. The fact I like to work for smaller companies probably reinforces all this, for me anyway. Now, excuse me, I need to get back to SEEK :) |

Design : deisgn the look of site such as images and colours.
Developer : Makes the website run and work how they should perform. |
