Web Developer

A Web developer is a professional who develops websites, going beyond the basics of Web design. A typical Web developer job description includes: managing and supervising all aspects of a system or database hosted on the web. While Web developers often work on simple websites, they are more often involved in more complex projects such as e-commerce sites and planning the entire scope and direction of a site. A Web site developer must be skilled in many disciplines and technologies including XML programming, PHP, JavaScript, and HTML.
A career in this field requires extensive IT training, with career computer training being a continuous process. After all, new technologies are continually being developed. As these technologies become widely used, Web developers must maintain their skills.
