What does a website developer do?
A website developer encompasses a range of tasks and disciplines, including web design, web content development, client-side/server-side scripting, web server configuration, and network security configuration, among others. Here’s an overview of the key components involved in website development:
- Planning: This phase involves defining the website’s purpose, goals, target audience, and scope. It also includes creating a sitemap and wireframes to outline the website’s structure and navigation.
- Design: Web design focuses on the visual aesthetics and user interface of the website. Design elements include layout, color scheme, typography, images, and multimedia content. Designers use tools like Adobe Photoshop, Sketch, or Figma to create mockups and prototypes.
- Front-end Development: Front-end development involves writing code (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) to implement the design and create the user-facing interface of the website. Front-end developers ensure that the website is responsive, accessible, and optimized for various devices and browsers.
- Back-end Development: Back-end development involves writing code (PHP, Python, Ruby, Java, etc.) to create the server-side logic and functionality of the website. This includes handling data storage, user authentication, server communication, and dynamic content generation. Back-end developers work with databases (e.g., MySQL, MongoDB) and web servers (e.g., Apache, Nginx) to build the website’s infrastructure.
- Content Management: Content management involves creating, editing, and organizing the website’s content, including text, images, videos, and other multimedia assets. Content management systems (CMS) like WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla provide tools for easily managing and publishing content without requiring technical expertise.
- Testing and Quality Assurance: Testing is essential to ensure that the website functions correctly, is free of bugs and errors, and provides a positive user experience. Testing includes functional testing, usability testing, performance testing, compatibility testing, and security testing.
- Deployment: Deployment involves uploading the website files to a web server and configuring the server to make the website accessible on the internet. This may involve setting up domain names, SSL certificates, DNS records, and server configurations.
- Maintenance and Updates: Once the website is live, it requires ongoing maintenance, updates, and support to keep it running smoothly and secure. This includes monitoring performance, fixing bugs, updating content, implementing security patches, and optimizing for SEO.

However, their functionality and ability to customize elements is extremely limited. If you have limited or no coding ability, that’s ok. There are templates which are WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get).
If you want your logo, or a hover, or your shopping cart to function a certain way, then yes a website developer may be required.
This answer again depends on the size and required functionality needed. Generally, it takes about 3 months to fully create, test, debug, and launch a website. And that’s if everything goes well. Delays can occur, such as lack of cooperation from the client, no images, needed content, etc.
