Web Design Technologies


Currently, there are different web technologies that can be used to develop and administrate a website. The technology is constantly changing to make web design easier, more dynamic, and less time consuming. Below lists the main 3 languages used to make a website:

HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language and is the most used language for Web pages. It describes the structure of text-based information in a document. The basic structure of HTML comes from elements which are made up of attributes and content. The main elements are: structural, which describes the purpose of the text, presentational which describes the appearance of the text, and hypertext which links documents to other documents. HTML is delivered mainly through http and html emails, thus making it ideal for company websites, e-commerce, and email marketing.

The addition of FLASH to the web has made it possible to deliver high impact web content such as videos, animation, and more detailed designs. This is a great tool for presentations, interactive websites, games, and all multimedia. Users are more intrigued by the Flash media, but one disadvantage is the long loading time. 

CSS stands for Cascading style sheets and is the style language for web pages. Primarily, it is used to differentiate between the content of the document from the presentation by making it easier to access information specifically related to the presentation of the document. Now CSS can be presented in different methods including on screen, in print, by voice, and more. CSS has a method of determining style rules that make all results the same.  With the help of CSS, site maintenance is easier, less expensive, and less time consuming.
