1. How to create a website<\/h2>\n
\n\"Wed<\/div>\n

Today, creating a website is not as difficult as it used to be. It is not necessary to have a technical or computer background. To create a dynamic website, it is sufficient to be able to install a CMS <\/strong>(Content Management System) software such as WordPress<\/strong> or Joomla<\/strong> on a hosting space and that’s it.<\/p>\n

Consequently, anyone can put a simple website online themselves and manage it easily with a publication control panel. <\/p>\n

Although CMS software is a perfect solution for creating a blog or a small web magazine, CMSs are not suitable for the development of more complex websites.<\/p>\n

If the website is the front-end interface of other corporate information systems, it still requires design (web engineering) and programming (web development) skills.<\/p>\n

According to the company’s needs, computer language professionals work on all the website’s functionalities. They then propose tailor-made solutions to fulfil their mission in the company.<\/p>\n

1.1 How a website works <\/h3>\n
<\/div>\n

A website is a set of hypertext documents and multimedia elements (images, videos, etc.) organized in web pages. In other words, the webmaster uploads the document files onto the web space of a server computer (host) connected to the Internet 24 hours a day.<\/p>\n

Today, web developers<\/strong> are increasingly in demand. Indeed, the rapid developments in the IT sector and the digital transformation that all companies must manage have led to a strong demand for new programs, websites and applications. No company can do without a web presence, so it will need an IT professional who can structure and manage it in an appropriate and up-to-date form.<\/p>\n

When users (client) connect to the host’s address via their browser, the server sends them the requested hypertext document. In this way, users can navigate between documents on remote computers, even on the other side of the world.<\/p>\n
