With growing specialization within communication design and information technology fields, there is a strong tendency to draw a clear line between web design specifically for web pages and web development for the overall logistics of all web-based services.

Web Development is a broad term for any activity to developing a web site for the World Wide Web or an internet.   This can include e-commerce business development, web design, web content development, client-side/server-side scripting, and web server configuration.   However, among web professionals, "web development" usually refers only to the non-design aspects of building web sites, e.g. writing markup and coding.   Web development can range from developing the simplest static single page of plain text to the most complex web-based internet applications, electronic businesses, or social network services.

For larger businesses and organizations, web development teams can consist of hundreds of people (web developers).   Smaller organizations may only require a single permanent or contracting webmaster, or secondary assignment to related job positions such as a graphic designer and/or Information systems technician.   Web development may be a collaborative effort between departments rather than the domain of a designated department.

In addition, web development has moved to a new phase of Internet communication.   Computer web sites are no longer simply tools for work or commerce but used most for communication.   Websites such as Facebook and Twitter provide users a platform to freely communicate.   This new form of web communication is also changing e-commerce through the number of hits and online advertisement.

Web Development can be split into many areas and a typical and basic web development hierarchy might consist of:

  • Client Side Coding
  • Server Side Coding
  • Client Side + Server Side
  • Database Technology
