Web projects can store data in many different ways. Effective website projects can therefore involve developing data driven websites and Web applications. Web databases include MySQL and Oracle, both of which developers can create and query using SQL. To build a Web project with a Web database, learners can use server side programming in PHP or ASP, or optionally Java. Many websites now store data in XML format, so Web projects in which learners model and implement XML data structures may also be useful.
Commerce
Anyone working as a Web developer will often work on commercial websites. These vary from simple technologies using automated payment methods such as PayPal, to complex bespoke systems designed using database systems. Any Web project involving secure processing of payments is a good way to familiarize learners with the basic principles in e-commerce development projects. Such projects can optionally include websites with user accounts and registration.
Interactivity
At client side, Web development can involve intense amounts of JavaScript processing to achieve a deep level of interactivity for users. Any Web development project with significant requirements in terms of interactivity may therefore be valuable. As well as implementing website functions manually, developers can learn to use external JavaScript functionality made available through resources such as the jQuery library and associated tools. Working with a third-party interface like this is another common activity for professional developers.
Multimedia
Websites use many different media types. Creating items of the various media formats available is one possible element in a development project. The other aspect of this is learning how best to deploy multimedia items within websites in ways that will make the media content as widely accessible as possible, to users browsing in unpredictable contexts. Tools and technologies involved in multimedia Web development include Adobe Creative Suite and HTML5.
Content Management
Rather than creating a bespoke database and user management system for every client, many Web developers use CMS (Content Management Systems) solutions. Popular CMS options include Joomla, WordPress and Drupal, so using any one of these within a development project should equip learners with the general principles and practices. When a CMS is deployed on a website, it facilitates creation, editing and maintenance of website content. Developers using CMS solutions often need to tailor these to suit the client, including making alterations to both the HTML markup and CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) declarations.

Easy Ways to Put Together a WebsiteIn Feburary 2016 22,
In Feburary 2016 22,
Think about the message you want to present before you begin. Think about the content you want to include and where it will come from. You might be writing your own articles and using your own pictures. If you are designing a website for your business, you'll need to decide how you're going to take payment for your product or service. Take a look at the websites you like and don't like. Decide why these websites are enjoyable or what about them frustrates you. Design your website accordingly.
Building Your Website
There are several options for building your website. You don't need expensive web design software or a lot of HTML knowledge. You can find a free WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) web design program that works like a word processor. These programs allow you to insert your text and graphics, while the program generates the HTML code for you. CoffeeCup is a free HTML editor. Adobe's Dreamweaver is a good choice for complex web design made easy, but the software can be an expensive option for beginners.If you will be posting photos and graphics to your website, photo editing software is something else you want to consider. You can use a program like Picasa, XnView or Photofiltre (see resources). These are graphic editing tools you can use to prepare your images for the web. They each have extensive editing features and are reliable programs.
Web Hosting Services
Another option for putting together a website easily is to sign up for a free hosting account (see resources). These web hosts not only allow you to display your web pages on the Internet free of charge, they feature built-in tools that make it easy for you to design and build your website. When you use web tools built in to your web hosting service, you don't need to worry about additional software to upload your pages. Your changes are saved and displayed immediately.Many paid web hosting services offer a wider range of web tools to help you design your website easily, as well as shopping carts for e-commerce. These features are included in the package price, along with free domain name registration. Startlogic is a reliable company with a long track record and an extensive, easy-to-use design tool set.For users who want to do business from their websites, Paypal is the easiest way. With a business account at Paypal, you can generate HTML code for your website that will add 'Buy It Now' buttons to the products or services you feature on your website. A Paypal account is free and easy to set up.
Blogs
A blog, which is a shortened version of the term web log, is an alternative you can use to create a website. Blog sites are typically free and easy to set up. Rather than use traditional website structures, blogs are usually column based and primarily text. You can use graphics on blog sites, but the primary goal of a blog is to allow users to make a 'log' of the events going on in their lives, their personal opinions, or to promote a business or service. WordPress and Blogger are two reliable blog sites. The tools offered by these blog sites are simple to use and free of charge.

What is Web Hosting?In Feburary 2016 09,
In Feburary 2016 09,
Web hosting is the method in which surfers of the web can successfully browse the Internet. A web server is a computer that sends the information for a personal or a business site to the Internet. Web hosting companies provide servers to its clients with the options of presenting information, files, pictures and bandwidth for the traffic its website brings in. This is a convenient technique for people to place ideas, products or personal touches on the World Wide Web.
Significance
The purpose for web hosting is practicality. A person with no website experience can create a meaningful site just like a knowledgeable professional. You do not need a web host to create a site linked to the Internet. However, setting up a server from your personal PC takes in-depth understanding that most people do not want to take the time to learn. That is why web-hosting companies provide simple access to the Internet. Anyone can create a site and have it viewed by millions.
Types
There are several styles of web hosting services. This depends on the type of website you have created. Websites that are more complex contain scripts, user generated information or an automated system requires CGI or PHP scripts. This method to have your script properly displayed is available by some companies while others do not offer this technique.
Free website hosting is rare. This style has advertisements in the form of banners or pop-ups. The free companies offer limited functions for clients. Typically, a person that has does not require large traffic and space or involve scripts uses this type of service.
Dedicated hosting is a method in which the client has free range of their website and functionality. The service is unshared, which will give the business or person more bandwidth, which leads to higher traffic margins. Flexibility is the key when using a dedicated server. You will be able to choose your hardware and operating system for your special needs. This gives you complete control over the server. You are required to have in-depth knowledge of web hosting services before you can completely use a dedicated web hosting company.
Shared hosting is the most common style for businesses and personal use. This is when your website is on a server with a couple of hundred others. You upload your website through a browser or an FTP. Then you can make changes on your website directly from the server's control panel. Shared hosting offers a setup for any scripts your website requires. In addition, they will not apply advertisements to your website.
Benefits
When you run a website, you will need a domain name for others to find you. Your webpage is linked to this address. Most companies that require payment for their services offers you to choose a domain name free of charge. Some may ask for a small yearly fee to have the domain name of your choice. In addition, using a web hosting server allows you to have the freedom of allowing your content to be seen on the World Wide Web. You can have the benefit of having your company or personal page put on one search engine or several different ones.
Analysis
Choosing a web hosting company may be a difficult task. There are several functions and considerations that you should be aware. Most companies provide a list of its benefits on the company's webpage. However, it may be difficult to understand what it is that you are actually receiving from them.
A business website requires extensive scripts to run. This includes payment methods, forms to fill out and pictures to show your products. A successful business should have plenty of bandwidth to keep up with the traffic. They should also have a simple to manage control panel where you can change what you need and leave quickly. Time is money and the simplest options are required. You will also need to decide if your company is worth a dedicated server or if a shared server will be enough for your growing business.
A personal website does not need much consideration. Blogs, family or friend pictures and information that you wish to share with the world is usually the normal webpage. You could also have a form or another method where people can share their thoughts, like a guest book. A form is a simple script but you will need to have your web host be able to run scripts. Free or shared web hosting services are capable of running a personal site. Remember, free hosting companies often require advertisements on your page.

Which Computer Languages Are Used to Create Websites?In Feburary 2016 02,
In Feburary 2016 02,
Hyper-text Markup Language, called HTML, is the most basic language for the creation of a website. Using HTML, you can create the basic elements of a page, including the header and body, tables, paragraphs and text. HTML is a tag-based language, which defines elements using tags enclosed in less than (
) symbols.
CSS
Cascading Style Sheets allow you fine control over formatting elements in a website. Using CSS, you can define complex logic for formatting of elements on your site, from special backgrounds to how different sections fit together and flow. You can modify the color and style of fonts, change how hyperlinks work and format bullets. CSS works with HTML to allow the defining and application of classes, which can then be referenced in the HTML page to designate the style of the HTML element.
JavaScript
JavaScript is slightly more advanced than HTML and CSS. It is used to create action within a website, such as what happens when you click your mouse or scroll over an image. JavaScript is frequently used to perform input checking as well. This allows the Web designer to validate the input in a form field prior to sending the information to the server.
ColdFusion and PHP
Both ColdFusion and PHP are Web development languages designed to facilitate interaction with a database on the server. These languages allow the developer to pull information from a database and display it on a site. In addition, they can be used to update or insert new information into a database based on form inputs. Both languages can be seamlessly integrated with HTML, CSS and JavaScript to create complex websites. No special software is required to write these languages, but each requires an application to be installed to interpret the language and furnish results. Adobe's ColdFusion application is a commercial application, while PHP is Open Source.
SQL
Structured Query Language is a language used primarily for accessing data in databases. This language is required to use the functionality of ColdFusion or PHP on a website. Some common database applications used with websites are Microsoft's SQL Server, Oracle's Sybase and MySQL databases. Of these, MySQL is the only Open Source application. Again, writing SQL does not require special software, but the databases must be installed on the servers for the website.
