All kinds of businesses have a presence on the Internet. E-businesses market goods and services on the web. Traditional retail businesses also use the web to sell and advertise their goods and services. Restaurants post their menus and receive take-out orders. Non-profit organizations and government agencies use websites to communicate with and provide information to interested visitors. A web site developer works behind the scenes to make it happen.

Web pages are the interfaces between organizations and the public. Behind the scenes, there may be complex programs that may:

• Take retail orders
• Store visitor information
• Facilitate communication among groups of users
• Track information about how people use the website

A web site developer must know about graphic design, computer programming, and advertising strategies. Oftentimes they are jacks-of-all-trades who not only create the website, but run the business as well. However, as web pages become more sophisticated in appearance and function, some distinct roles are emerging:

• Web Designer
• Multimedia Artist and Animator
• Web Developer
