What is a Web Site ?

A web site is a collection of information about a particular topic or subject. Designing a web site is defined as the creation of Web pages that in turn make up a web site. There are many design concerns in this process, and due to the rapid development of the Internet, new aspects may emerge.

 

For typical commercial Web sites, the basic aspects of design are:

Content The substance, and information on the site should be relevant to the site and should target the area of the public that the web site is concerned with.

Usability The site should be user-friendly, with the interface and navigation simple and reliable.

Appearance The graphics and text should include a single style that flows throughout, to show consistency. The style should be professional, appealing and relevant.

Visibility The site must also be easy to find via most, if not all, major search engines and advertisement media.

Web Applications Development

A Web Application is an application that is accessed via Web browser over a network such as the Internet or an intranet. The software is coded in a browser-supported language and reliant on a common web browser to render the application executable.

The ability to update and maintain Web applications without distributing and installing software on potentially thousands of client computers is a key reason for their popularity.

 

 

Popular Web Applications for Websites:

• E-Commerce Store

• Live Message Board

• Online Auction

• Online Blog

• Online Retail

• Online File Exchange

• Shopping Cart Checkout

• Web Games

• Web Mail

• Web Services

• Wickies

 

Web Services

A Web service is a software system designed to support interoperable machine-to-machine interaction over a network. It has an interface described in a machine-processable format (specifically WSDL). Other systems interact with the Web service in a manner prescribed by its description using SOAP-messages, typically conveyed using HTTP with an XML serialization in conjunction with other Web-related standards.

Web services today are frequently just Application Programming Interfaces (API) or web APIs that can be accessed over a network, such as the Internet, and executed on a remote system hosting the requested services.

Web API is a development in web services (in a movement called Web 2.0) where emphasis has been moving away from Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) based services towards more direct Representational State Transfer (REST) style communications. Web APIs allow the combination of multiple web services into new applications known as mashups.

Web services provide access to software systems over the Internet using standard protocols. In a minimalistic scenario there exists at least a Web service provider that publishes some service such as a weather service and a Web service consumer that uses this service. Web service discovery is the process of finding a suitable Web service for given task.

Intellia can help you identify and discover the web services your users require, and then built these web services into your website so that your users can consume these services.

One example of a web service is the 'New Zealand Foreign Debt Meter'.

Web design is the arrangement and creation of web pages that in turn make up a web site. Web design is the process of conceptualizing, planning, modelling, and execution of web pages, web sites, and electronic media content delivery via the Internet.

Web Development

Web development is a broad term for any activities related to developing a web site for the World Wide Web or an intranet.

This can include e-commerce business development, web design, web content development, client-side/server-side coding, and web server configuration.

Web development refers to the aspects of programming web sites, e.g. writing markup and coding.

Web development can range from developing the simplest static single page of plain text to the most complex web-based internet applications, electronic businesses, or social network services.
