Think of building a house, you have a team of people to make your dreams become reality. From the initial design and floorplan to the final build and functionality of your house for it to be inhabitable. Well a website is the same.
You have your designers. These are the people who will pull your ideas together and provide you with an overall design of your website from colours, layout, look and feel. This is not your built website but a good indicatoin of how it will look.
The building of the website is also like building a house, you need a specialist team of people who know how to build your website. These are web developers. Your developer understands the code which is required to make your website work so, all the fancy tricks a site can do, that we all take for granted when making a purchase online, all had to be coded and put together by these developers.
Web design is simply designing, web development is the building and making sure the functions work. The developers are also the people who will correct and fix any issues with your website further down the line.
Harrogate Web Solutions has a team of Both designers and developers. When you initially make contact with us your website will start off with a designer and then passed to one of our developers to build and ensure it works.
So, when you are next looking for a web designer to create your new website to represent your business make sure they are more than a designer and they can actually develop your site too. Many people come to us with their new website and it looks really good and they are proud of it but they struggle because it hasn’t been developed to work correctly.
Remember, anyone can design a website but it takes a team of developers to actually build and make your site work.
