Only with user-friendly and attractive content can on a website can ensure its continuous usage, make users to be willing to continue visit this website. Meeting the preferences of certain user groups is the key to increasing message transfer and communication efficiency (Goguen 2003). Website development has come a long way since the mid-90s when the Web explosion took place. Early websites were often written by individuals and were text-only affairs; nowadays sites are frequently constructed by professional web design houses employing teams of developers as well as graphics artists, usability, accessibility, search engine and database specialists all collaborating to produce and maintain websites responsible for millions of dollars of annual revenue for their owners. Of course, not all website development and design is undertaken at this level; many design houses are manned by a few people whose duties frequently overlap. And there are millions of websites authored by individuals either for small businesses or, increasingly, as weblogs promoting the authors’ lifestyles and perspectives on life, politics, news.

...The Foundation of Web Development Name Class College Name Instructor The Foundation of Web Development The internet, an international network linking and communicating thousands upon millions of computer devices, concerns an immense and impressive networking foundation, or framework. The web or the World Wide Web is not the internet, but instead consists of a method of acquiring data throughout the internet sharing the vast abundance of information. As soon as the web became an exclusive entity, web development was introduced. This article summary will evaluate how HTML, CSS, and JavaScript became the foundation of web development for the web. “The basic building blocks of the World Wide Web are the three most commonly-used web standards — HTML, CSS and JavaScript” (W3C, 2011). Web development communicates with the web to contribute to its performance, which seem similar to the primary components of a house, or any other structure of the sort. A house, for instance, consists of a concrete foundation (the internet), the house structure and engineering components (the web), and the décor, interior design, and Feng shui (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript). These technologies (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) work side-by-side to create artistry in the form of websites, web apps, and everything else roaming aimlessly on the web. Hypertext Markup Language or HTML could be used as (still can be) a standalone language to create webpages and sites without the need for Cascading Stylesheets...

...name of the Google is "google.com." Each website has a domain name that serves as an address, which is used to access the website * Whenever you visit a website, the domain name appears in the address bar of the web browser. Some domain names are preceded by "www" while others omit the "www" prefix. * All domain names have a domain suffix, such as .com, .net, or .org. The domain suffix helps identify the type of website the domain name represents. For example, ".com" domain names are typically used by commercial website, while ".org" websites are often used by non-profit organizations * NOTE: When you access a website, the domain name is actually translated to an IP address, which defines the server where the website located. This translation is performed dynamically by a service called DNS. * Web Server * A Web server is a computer system that hosts websites. It runs Web server software, such as Apache or Microsoft IIS, which provides access to hosted webpages over the Internet. Every Web server has an IP address and possibly a domain name. For example, if you enter the URL http://www.google.com in your browser, this sends a request to the Web server whose domain name is google.com. * Any computer can be turned into a Web server by installing server software and connecting the machine to the Internet. * IP Address * An IP address, or simply an "IP," is a unique address that identifies a device on the Internet or a local network...

...1. Introduction Over the last three years the focus of the information technology industry has moved towards development for the World Wide Web (WWW). Information systems using WWW technology, delivered by an Intranet or via the Internet, are now prevalent throughout New Zealand and overseas. Within New Zealand, a wide variety of organisations are deploying information systems onto the WWW, including banks, government departments and other service providers. They are using the WWW as a strategic business tool, supporting their existing operations or providing a low-cost solution for delivering a new product or service line. 1.1 Proposition and Aims There is an abundance of information on the graphical and user interface aspects of WWW site design. In addition, a large body of knowledge has been developed in the area of software development methodologies. However, there has been very little research conducted to examine if these existing research methodologies are applicable to the information systems developed for the WWW. The WWW is a technologically dynamic environment, and presents new challenges for developers. In order to address the emerging WWW environment, a number of researchers have proposed software development methodologies specifically for the WWW. Consequently, the aim of this research was to investigate how organisations are currently developing WWW-based information systems, and the reasons why those methods are being used. This examination is important...

Walmart became a publicly traded company by the early 1970’s and officially was listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Entering the 1980’s, Walmart’s sales topped $1 billion and computerized point-of-sale systems were installed in stores enabling fast and accurate checkout experiences for its customers (Walmart, Inc., 2016).
