Web design is the process where a designer builds how the website is laid out, what colours are used, what typography.

Web designer normally uses software like Adobe Photoshop, Ilustrator and basically creates a photo of what the website looks like.

A web developer on the other hand is the person that takes the design and turns it in a fully functional website.

Technologies used by developer can vary, we mostly use Wordpress, because it's a free open source environment, easy for clients to add new content and manage existing content by even less tech savvy individuals.

A website is similar to some degree to an engine.

If an engine is not used or is doesn't have sufficient engine oil it breaks down. The same happens to a website.

If a the core engine, the integrations on the website aren't updated they will often become incompatible with one another and break down.

That's why it's essential to test and update your website components as soon as a new version is launched.

Other things to bear in mind are security systems to prevent hackers for getting access to your data, cloud backups, performance monitoring etc.
