Web Design, Development and Hosting
A Cut Above the Rest
ITeachNet.org makes excellent Web sites that are fast, dependable, secure and beautiful. They are a cut above the rest.
Often, people looking at one of them, perhaps a school's Web site, want to know "who made it?" Answering this question can be a lot more complicated than one might first expect.
Why? Because ITeachNet knows that "making" a Web site involves a trio of important skills and processes, Design, Development and Hosting. Each of these aspects is important. Although design is the one people think of first, a Web site cannot be built by design alone, any more than an airplane can.
Yet, even design is more complicated than it may at first appear.Today, design involves a marriage of technical and aesthetic decisions based on what users should be able to do, what software is capable of providing and what appearances the whole and its pieces can be given.
Development is taking the design and creating the software that will make it possible. It is limited by the medium (the World Wide Web which is based on the Internet), the programming language in which it is written (or "coded") and the ingenuity of the programmer(s).
Hosting, the least glamorous of the trio is not only the home, the computer on which the Web site will reside and its connection, large or small, fast or slow, to the Internet, but also the speed of the computer, the languages it supports, the technologies it enables (via its server software as well as its hardware), and the maintenance of all of the above: security, backup, logging, access and power.
A good Web site, then, involves a lot more than its flashy front-end. The best Web sites are made when the designer, the developer and the hosting system administrator work as a team. That's what ITeachNet.org does: we put it all together for you. The result is not only attractive, but also reliable, effective and powerful.
