Web Design

Design

Designing a website can be one of the hardest things to do. It is this initial design which the client sees and will probably want some tweaks doing here and there. Once the client is happy you can then proceed.

A website usually has the name of the company and their logo at the top of the page. The rest of the page can then be designed to the clients' wishes. Some websites will have their navigation displayed horizontally across the page beneath the logo, others will have vertical navigation down the left or right side of the page. There is no correct method, it is just cometic and something which the client will agree to.

Most designs for websites are now done with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). These set up the areas on screen where each item will appear. The majority of the code for the design will be written in HyperText Markup Language (HTML). This will allow the site to be built so that the design can be shown to the client.

If the website requires data entry or fetching stored data to be displayed on the screen, you will need a language which can talk to databases. There are many languages on the market which can be used such as .NET, C#, PHP, Java, and many more.
