I am in the world of website development for last 5 years. Web development is becoming more popular day by day. There are many websites made every day. So there is huge work to maintain these websites and also to make new websites. There are simple one page sites to large websites like facebook. Some people watch the websites and daily use the websites and one day they also aim to develop their own website. Developing website is not a single day work, it includes lot of skills to develop good website. If you want to make a company which develops websites then you must have some know-how of how websites are developed and what technologies needed to develop websites. Developing website is very interesting if you know how to develop and is also boring and difficult if you don’t know the skills required to develop website.
