Web Devlopment as an Idustry
Since the commercialization of the web, web
development has been a growing industry.
The growth of this industry is being pushed especially by businesses wishing to
sell products and services to online customers.[1]
For tools and platforms, the public can use many open source systems
to aid in web development. A popular example, the LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) stack is available
for download online free of charge. This has kept the cost of learning web
development to a minimum. Another contributing factor to the growth of the
industry has been the rise of easy-to-use WYSIWYG web-development
software, most prominently Adobe
Dreamweaver, WebDev, and Microsoft Expression Studio. Using such
software, virtually anyone can relatively quickly learn to develop a very basic
web page. Knowledge of HyperText Markup Language (HTML) or of programming
languages is still required to use such software, but the basics can be learned
and implemented quickly with the help of help files, technical books, internet
tutorials, or face-to-face training.
An ever growing set of tools and technologies
have helped developers build more dynamic and interactive websites. Web
developers now help to deliver applications as web services which were
traditionally only available as applications on a desk-based computer.
Instead of running executable code on a local
computer, users can interact with online applications to create new content.
This has created new methods in communication[and allowed for many
opportunities to decentralize information and media distribution. Users can
interact with applications from many locations, instead of being tied to a
specific workstation for their application environment.
Examples of dramatic transformation in
communication and commerce led by web development include e-commerce. Online
auction-sites such as eBay have
changed the way consumers find and purchase goods and services. Online
retailers such as Amazon.com and Buy.com (among
many others) have transformed the shopping and bargain-hunting experience for
many consumers. Another good example of transformative communication led by web
development is the blog.
Web applications such as WordPress and Movable Type have
created easily-implemented blog-environments for individual web sites. The
popularity of open-source content management systems such as Joomla!, Drupal, XOOPS, and TYPO3 and enterprise content management systems
such as Alfresco and eXo Platform have
extended web development's impact at online interaction and communication.
Web development has also impacted personal
networking and marketing. Websites are no longer simply tools for work or for commerce,
but serve more broadly for communication and social
networking. Websites such as Facebook and Twitter provide
users with a platform to communicate and organizations with a more personal and
interactive way to engage the public

Looking at these items from an "umbrella
approach", client side coding such as XHTML is executed and stored on a local
client (in a web browser) whereas server side code is not available to a client
and is executed on a web server which
generates the appropriate XHTML which is then sent to the client. The nature of
client side coding allows one to alter the HTML on a local client and refresh
the pages with updated content (locally), web designers must
bear in mind the importance and relevance to security with their server side
scripts. If a server side script accepts content from a locally modified client
side script, the web development of that page is poorly sanitized with relation
to security.

The World Wide Web has become a major delivery platform for web development a variety of complex and sophisticated enterprise applications in several domains. In addition to their inherent multifaceted functionality, these web applications exhibit complex behavior and place some unique demands on their usability, performance, security and ability to grow and evolve. However, a vast majority of these applications continue to be developed in an ad-hoc way, contributing to problems of usability, maintainability, quality and reliability.(1)(2) While web development can benefit from established practices from other related disciplines, it has certain distinguishing characteristics that demand special considerations. In recent years of web development there have been some developments towards addressing these problems and requirements. As an emerging discipline, web engineering actively promotes systematic, disciplined and quantifiable approaches towards successful development of high-quality, ubiquitously usable web-based systems and applications.(3)(4) In particular, web engineering focuses on the methodologies, techniques and tools that are the foundation of web application development and which support their design, development, evolution, and evaluation. Web application development has certain characteristics that make it different from traditional software, information system, or computer application development.
Web engineering is multidisciplinary and encompasses
contributions from diverse areas: systems analysis and design, software
engineering, hypermedia/hypertext engineering, requirements engineering,
human-computer interaction, user interface, information engineering,
information indexing and retrieval, testing, modelling and simulation, project
management, and graphic design and presentation. Web engineering is neither a
clone, nor a subset of software engineering, although both involve programming
and software development. While web engineering uses software engineering
principles, web development encompasses new approaches, methodologies, tools,
techniques, and guidelines to meet the unique requirements for web-based
applications.

and storing sensitive information. A basic understanding of information technology security concerns is often part of a web developer's
knowledge.
Because new security holes are found in web applications
even after testing and launch, security patch updates are frequent for widely
used applications. It is often the job of web developers to keep applications
up to date as security patches are released and new security concerns are
discovered.

Web design encompasses many different skills and disciplines
in the production and maintenance of websites. The different areas of web
design include web graphic design; interface design; authoring, including standardised code
and proprietary software; user
experience design; and search
engine optimization.
Often many individuals will work in teams covering different aspects of the
design process, although some designers will cover them all.[1] The term web design is normally used to describe the design process
relating to the front-end (client side) design of a website including writing
mark up. Web design partially overlaps web engineering in the broader scope of web development. Web designers are expected to have an
awareness of usability and if their role involves creating mark up then they are also expected
to be up to date with web accessibility guidelines.
History
1988—2001
Although web design has a fairly recent history, it can be
linked to other areas such as graphic design. However web design is also seen
as a technological standpoint. It has become a large part of people’s everyday
lives. It is hard to imagine the Internet without animated graphics, different
styles of typography, background and music.
The start of the web
and web design
In 1989, whilst working at CERN Tim Berners-Lee proposed
to create a global hypertext project, which later became known as the World Wide Web. Throughout 1991 to 1993 the World
Wide Web was born. Text only pages could be viewed using a simple line-mode
browser.[2] In
1993 Marc Andreessen and Eric Bina, created the Mosaic browser. At the time there were multiple
browsers however the majority of them were Unix-based and were naturally text
heavy. There had been no integrated approach to graphical design elements such
as images or sounds. The Mosaic browser broke this mould.[3] The W3C was created in October 1994, to
"lead the World Wide Web to its full potential by developing common
protocols that promote its evolution and ensure its interoperability."[4] This
discouraged any one company from monopolizing a propriety browser and
programming language, which could have altered the effect of the World Wide Web
as a whole. The W3C continues to set standards, which can today be seen with
JavaScript. In 1994 Andreessen formed Communications corp. That later became
known as Netscape Communications the Netscape 0.9 browser. Netscape
created its own HTML tags without regards to the traditional standards process.
For example Netscape 1.1 included tags for changing background colours and
formatting text with tables on web pages. Throughout 1996 to 1999 the browser wars began,
as Microsoft and Netscape fought
for ultimate browser dominance. During this time there were many new
technologies in the field, notably Cascading Style Sheets, JavaScript, and Dynamic HTML. On a whole the browser competition did
lead to many positive creations and helped web design evolve at a rapid pace.[5]
Evolution of web design
In 1996, Microsoft released its first competitive browser,
which was complete with its own features and tags. It was also the first
browser to support style sheets, which at the time was seen as an obscure
authoring technique.[5] The HTML markup for tables was
originally intended for displaying tabular data. However designers quickly
realized the potential of using HTML tables for creating the complex,
multi-column layouts that were otherwise not possible. At this time, as design
and good aesthetics seemed to take precedence over good mark-up structure, and
little attention was paid to semantics and web accessibility. HTML sites were limited in their
design options, even more so with earlier versions of HTML. To create complex
designs, many web designers had to use complicated table structures or even use
blank spacer .GIF images
to stop empty table cells from collapsing.[6] CSS was introduced in December 1996 by the W3C to support presentation and layout;
this allowed HTML code to be semantic rather than both
semantic and presentational, and improved web accessibility, see tableless web design.
Modern browsers
Since the end of the
browsers wars there have been
new browsers coming onto the scene. Many of these are open source meaning
that they tend to have faster development and are more supportive of new
standards. The new options are considered by many to be better that Microsoft's Internet Explorer.
New standards
The W3C has released new standards of HTML (HTML5)
and CSS (CSS3), as well as new JavaScript API's each as a new but individual standard.
However, while the term HTML5 is only used to refer to the new version of HTML
and some of the JavaScript API's, it has become
common to use it to refer to the entire suite of new standards (HTML5, CSS3 and
JavaScript)
Tolls and Technolgy
Web designers use a variety of different tools depending on
what part of the production process they are involved in. These tools are
updated over time by newer standards and software but the principles behind
them remain the same. Web graphic designers use vector and raster graphics
packages for creating web formatted imagery or design prototypes. Technologies
used for creating websites include standardised mark-up, which could be
hand-coded or generated by WYSIWYG editing software. There is also proprietary
software based on plug-ins that bypasses the client’s browsers versions. These
are often WYSIWYG but with the option of using the software’s scripting
language. Search engine optimisation tools may be used to check search
engine ranking and suggest improvements.
Other tools web designers might use include mark up validators[7] and
other testing tools for usability and accessibility to ensure their web sites
meet web accessibility guidelines.
Skills and Technology
Marketing and communication design
Marketing and communication design on a website may
identify what works for its target market. This can be an age group or
particular strand of culture; thus the designer may understand the trends of
its audience. Designers may also understand the type of website they are
designing, meaning, for example, that (B2B) business-to-business website design considerations might
differ greatly from a consumer targeted website such as a retail or entertainment website. Careful
consideration might be made to ensure that the aesthetics or overall design of
a site do not clash with the clarity and accuracy of the content or the ease of web navigation,[9] especially
on a B2B website. Designers may also consider the reputation of the owner or
business the site is representing to make sure they are portrayed favourably.
User experience design and interactive design
Users understanding the content of a website often depends
on users understanding how the website works. This is part of the user experience design.
User experience is related to layout, clear instructions and labeling on a
website. How well a user understands how they can interact on a site may also
depend on the interactive design of the site. If a user perceives the
usefulness of that website, they are more likely to continue using it. Users
who are skilled and well versed with website use may find a more unique, yet
less intuitive or less user-friendly website
interface useful nonetheless. However, users with less experience are less
likely to see the advantages or usefulness of a less intuitive website
interface. This drives the trend for a more universal user experience and ease
of access to accommodate as many users as possible regardless of user skill.[10] Much
of the user experience design and interactive design are considered in the user interface design.
Advanced interactive functions may require plug-ins if not advanced coding language
skills. Choosing whether or not to use interactivity that requires plug-ins is
a critical decision in user experience design. If the plug-in doesn't come
pre-installed with most browsers, there's a risk that the user will have
neither the know how, nor the patience to install a plug-in just to access the
content. If the function requires advanced coding language skills, it may be
too costly in either time or money to code compared to the amount of
enhancement the function will add to the user experience. There's also a risk
that advanced interactivity may be incompatible with older browsers or hardware
configurations. Publishing a function that doesn't work reliably is potentially
worse for the user experience than making no attempt. It depends on the target
audience if it's likely to be needed or worth any risks.
Page layout
Part of the user interface design is affected by the
quality of the page layout. For example, a designer may consider if
the site's page layout should remain consistent on different pages when
designing the layout. Page pixel width may also be considered vital for
aligning objects in the layout design. The most popular fixed-width websites
generally have the same set width to match the current most popular browser
window, at the current most popular screen resolution, on the current most
popular monitor size. Most pages are also center-aligned for concerns of aesthetics on
larger screens.[11]
Fluid layouts increased in popularity around 2000 as an
alternative to HTML-table-based layouts and grid-based design in both page layout design principle,
and in coding technique, but were very slow to be adopted.[note 1] This
was due to considerations of screen reading devices and windows varying in sizes which
designers have no control over. Accordingly, a design may be broken down into
units (sidebars, content blocks, embedded advertising areas, navigation areas) that are sent
to the browser and which will be fitted into the display window by the browser,
as best it can. As the browser does recognize the details of the reader's
screen (window size, font size relative to window etc.) the browser can make
user-specific layout adjustments to fluid layouts, but not fixed-width layouts.
Although such a display may often change the relative position of major content
units, sidebars may be displaced below body text rather
than to the side of it. This is a more flexible display than a hard-coded
grid-based layout that doesn't fit the device window. In particular, the
relative position of content blocks may change while leaving the content within
the block unaffected. This also minimizes the user's need to horizontally
scroll the page.
Responsive Web Design is a newer approach, based on CSS3,
and a deeper level of per-device specification within the page's stylesheet
through an enhanced use of the CSS
@media pseudo-selector.
Motion graphics
The page layout and user interface may also be affected by
the use of motion graphics. The choice of whether or not to use motion graphics
may depend on the target market for the website. Motion graphics may be
expected or at least better received with an entertainment-oriented website.
However, a website target audience with a more serious or formal interest (such
as business, community, or government) might find animations unnecessary and
distracting if only for entertainment or decoration purposes. This doesn't mean
that more serious content couldn't be enhanced with animated or video
presentations that is relevant to the content. In either case, motion graphic design may make the difference between more
effective visuals or
Homepage Design
Usability experts, including Jakob
Nielsen and Kyle
Soucy, have often emphasised homepage design for website success and asserted
that the homepage is the most important page on a website.[14][15][16][17] However
practitioners into the 2000s were starting to find that a growing number of
website traffic was bypassing the homepage, going directly to internal content
pages through search engines, e-newsletters and RSS feeds.[18] Leading
many practitioners to argue that homepages are less important than most people
think.[19][20][21][22] Jared
Spool argued in 2007 that a site's homepage was actually the least important
page on a website.[23]
In 2012 and 2013, carousels (also called 'sliders' and
'rotating banners') have become an extremely popular design element on
homepages, often used to showcase featured or recent content in a confined
space.[24][25] Many
practitioners argue that carousels are an ineffective design element and hurt a
website's search engine optimisation and usability.[25][26][27]
Occupations
There are two primary jobs involved in creating a website:
the web designer and web developer, who often work closely together on a
website.[28] The
web designers are responsible for the visual aspect, which includes the layout,
coloring and typography of a web page. Web designers will also have a working
knowledge of using a variety of languages such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP
and Flash to create a site, although the extent of their knowledge will differ
from one web designer to another. Particularly in smaller organizations one
person will need the necessary skills for designing and programming the full
web page, while larger organizations may have a web designer responsible for
the visual aspect alone.[29]
Further jobs, which under particular circumstances may
become involved during the creation of a website include:
·
Graphic designers to
create visuals for the site such as logos, layouts and buttons
·
Internet marketing specialists to help maintain web presence
through strategic solutions on targeting viewers to the site, by using marketing
and promotional techniques on the internet
·
SEO writers to research and recommend the correct words to be
incorporated into a particular website and make the website more accessible and
found on numerous search engines
·
Internet copywriter to create the written content of the page to
appeal to the targeted viewers of the sit
·
User experience (UX) designer incorporates aspects of user focused
design considerations which include information architecture, user centered
design, user testing, interaction design, and occasionally visual desig
Last week I had a chance to
interview Kyle Stalzer, President atTackk (a
portfolio company of my firm, ff Venture Capital), about an issue that’s top of mind
for a lot of our companies:How to Recruit an A-Quality Designer for Your Company.
This week, I’ll discuss the second-choice alternative: how to hire an
outsourced designer for your company.
It’s become a truism of the modern internet that design
matters. But what if the best-designed item in your office is the poster
of dogs playing poker in your bathroom?
In the absence of knowledge,
get someone who has the knowledge.
- Website designers determine the layout, graphics, text,
and navigation of the site. Graphic designers create graphics, colors, and
fonts.
- Website developers take
the design and write the code to implement it (although, for a simpler site, a
tool like Tackk or Wix obviates
their need).
- Internet marketers help
increase traffic to your site through search engine optimization.
However, the best design experts can’t afford to be singularly
focused, a point that Lead Designer and Co-Founder of Tackk, Dan Klammer,
stresses in his approach. “Good web designers need to be great communicators
and have an understanding of all functions of an experience. It’s important to
not only produce solid design work, but also demonstrate the user flow and
experience through prototypes. A good design that is not usable and
intuitive does nothing to add to the experience, and prototype design is a much
better exploration of the actual user experience.”
Understand the core
competencies of your team
Though many website-building professionals will overlap on
certain functions, it is important to understand what core competencies you
need and to target your search accordingly.
There are many ways to go about finding a developer (for
the rest of this post “developer” will be used generically in reference to any
of the aforementioned web professionals). By far, our preferred option is
to get a recommendation from someone you know. The developer will have strong
incentives to do the job right, knowing that you are in contact with past, and
perhaps future, clients. Moreover, you can have greater confidence in the
developer based on firsthand information from a trusted source.
If you can’t find what you
need within your network, however, the next option is to find outsourced
developers in the US or offshore. Matt Rogers, co-founder of Aroxo, lays out
the process in finding a good web developer based offshore. Daniella
Norwood of ella j
designs did a great job for me withTeten.com and TheVirtualHandshake.com.
Danni observed, “Because a Designer, Developer and Marketer are
three distinct but integrated roles that are critical to having an effective
website, [if you don’t do it in-house] you will be better off hiring a point of
contact who coordinates their talents and manages the execution of each,
removing this burden from you so that you can work on the growth of your core
business.”
Tools like eLance, Scriptlance, and Rentacoder allow companies to outsource specific
projects for various job functions. There are also a range of
marketplaces exclusively for technical talent: Behance, Dribbble, Elegant.ly,Sortfolio, and Folyo all
connect you with designers, while Tinyproj, Krop, andForrst connect
you with a pool of talented developers, copywriters, and illustrators.
With 99 Designs and Crowdspring, you
post your design project and name your price. In response, an average of 110
developers/designers will complete the project and you choose, and pay for,
your favorite. Crowdsourcing enables you to get high quality work for a minimal
price. Thomvest recently used this method to create their new site, and wrote a
great post with their recommendations around
the process, including starting on a Monday, making the contest blind, and
turning off search indexing.
Don’t just hire the first
promising candidate
It isn’t always wise to hire
the first promising developer you identify. There are positive qualities to
look for when meeting developers, and mistakes to
avoid when outsourcing development. Once you have found someone you believe to
be qualified, ensure you:
1. Check their previous clients’
websites. How sophisticated are they as a developer? How relevant is their
experience?
2. Perform
an online search — not just on a search engine, but also onLinkedIn LNKD -3.77%,
relevant forums, etc. Look for red flags, but take any individual data points
you find with a grain of salt. Patterns are far more likely to be accurate.
3. Ask for references. Don’t settle for a
generic recommendation—ask for specifics. Pay special attention to aspects of
the previous client’s project that might be relevant to your own. Customer
satisfaction is important.
4. Think about communication and customer
service. Does this team and or developer have a strong track record of
communicating effectively with clients and being responsive? There is nothing
worse than working with someone who does not respond nor provide you the
necessary updates in a timely manner.
5. Prepare
a list of
questions to ask the company. Envision the project from start to finish and try
to imagine any difficulties which may arise. Make sure you are covering all the
bases and getting straightforward answers. You don’t want any surprises once
you’ve committed. Do they have experience in responsive design?
6. Above
all, think scientifically. You have a hypothesis about the developer
(that they would perform certain duties to certain standards). Now is the time
to test it. Gather data. Look for disconfirming evidence. Revise or scrap your hypothesis
as needed.
Also, think about the ongoing relationship before signing a
contract. Are you going to keep the developer on call if (when!) changes
are needed? You also need to get some assurances that the developer keeps
the code clean and labeled properly, so someone else can easily work with the
code.
5 Top SEO And Online Marketing Trends For 2014
What this likely means
is that retailers are using different or separate URLs or locations for their
mobile friendly sites rather than consolidating their efforts to a single
website, Gibby said. An example of this practice might be mobile.example.com
vs. www.example.com. This is a problem, as the same content is now located on
more than one URL or location. How does Google (or even Bing) know which URL to
show their searches?
Responsive design
provides the best fit
For optimal success
Google recommends “responsive web design.” This phrase refers to website design
that adjusts the layout or size of the website according to the screen or
window size of whatever device or web browser is being used to view it. So
whether your website users are using an iPhone, Android, tablet or desktop PC,
the HTML code used to render the page is the same for every URL. This
eliminates the need to host separate mobile sites at a different location than
the main website. Essentially, the main website is the mobile website as well.
This does two things.
First, it makes sure the user goes to a page optimized for their viewing needs
regardless of their device. Secondly, having only one URL for each piece of
content draws all search engine ranking value to one URL, making it stronger.
If you haven’t already, now is a great time to unite your mobile site and main
site’s content through a responsive web design, for both mobile marketing
purposes and to strengthen your site’s SEO.
3. Local Search Competition on Search Engines
The Google Places Stats and Facts page says
that “20% of searches on Google are related to location.” According to comScore, 56% of mobile phone users use their
browser for local searches, raising the importance still further for small and
local businesses to establish themselves online.
There are about 250,000 new claimed listings on Google a month (Mike Blumenthal’s 2011 estimate), and the
implications are tremendous. The need for your business to have Google &
Bing optimized business listings is vital for your success in 2014. Internet
marketing firms such as Boostabililty that are catering to small and local
firms have seen tremendous growth. In the first week of 2013 Boostability
reported 3,347 SEO accounts with local intent. On Nov 27 they had 6,229
accounts, amounting to a staggering 86% rate of growth in localized SEO
business in 11 months.
As demand for pertinent
local search results rises, so does supply. Getting your business on Google+
and Bing is not difficult. Whether you hire a third party or do it in house,
you should optimize local search for all of your business locations in 2014. If
you’ve already done this, look into improving your standing further by
optimizing the profile, adding new images, coupons, and updating the hours of
business. Freshening up your profiles in the coming year will produce a better
return than ever before.
4. Remember There are More Users in HTML 5 Compatible Environments
than in Flash
StatCounter’s data, quoted in the Google study “Unlocking the HTML5 Opportunity: What’s the Holdup,”
says that in May 2013, the number of users who have HTML 5 compatible
environments overtook users with FLASH compatible environments.
HTML 5 is important as it allows for dynamic and interactive
content like FLASH, but is compatible a across multiple devices, browsers, and
screens. Soon, the need to have multiple technologies such as FLASH and
Silverlight for your company’s ads and creative on content will all merge into
HTML 5, saving development cost and time to execution, Gibby says.
FLASH will still be
compatible with regular desktop browsers, but HTML 5 content will soon be
compatible with every browser on every device.
You’ll notice from the
graph we’ve provided that HTML 5 compatibility is continuing to grow in
general. But is it growing among your website’s user base? Start to track if,
you haven’t already, how much usage there is on devices and browsers that are
compatible with HTML 5 vs. FLASH that use your website.
If the trend is positive
for HTML 5 on your website then start to incentivize your in-house teams to
learn HTML 5 if they have not done so already. What you pay for trainings and
workshops will be an investment well spent.
5. Pinterest Usage Soars
If your target market’s demographic includes white or Hispanic
females aged 18 to 64, Pinterest is the place to be. (Nielsen.com, 2012 Social Media Report). At
27,223,000 unique U.S. visitors in 2011, Pinterest has experienced exponential
growth. As of July 2013, Pinterest grew to 70 million subscribers with 50
million of those in the U.S. (Semiocast, July 2013).Twenty one million of these are believed to be
“active” users by Semiocast, meaning that the accounts have been used at least
once in the month the study was conducted and were not newly registered. The
moral of the story is this: Pinterest users are active users. If the growth
rate of Pinterest continues on this track, it may ultimately overtake Twitter
in total number of user accounts.
Based on these trends is
your online marketing ready for 2014? If not, you have a little more time. I
extend my thanks to Bart Gibby for his contributions to this article. And I
welcome your thoughts.
