Who is a web developer?

A web developer (or web programmer) is a software developer or software engineer specialises in the development of World Wide Web applications (or engaged in activity of web development). Web based applications use browser as a client and back-end component is located on a web-server. Information is passed between browser and server using the HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol).

Web developer Skills

A Web Developer should be proficient in client-side and server-side technologies, and understand databases and SQL language that is used to access them. When web developers work in a team, they might specialise in different technologies, but he still needs to be aware about the intenet architecture, protocols and standards, understand web technologies, frameworks.

Web developers might work together with a web designer, content writer/copywriter, project manager, software architect, search engine optimization specialist or web marketer or database specialist – or they may do such tasks as web design, project management, content creation and database administration themselves.

There are no formal educational to become a web developer. Many web developers have software development background. But some come from design, marketing and other areas related to the web. There are many tutorials and articles, which teach web development. They are available on the web for free. Picking up web development skills is simple, but no education can replace practical experience in building web-based applications.

Freelance developer (contractor) or a web development company?

Magic Web Solutions brings you the experience and dependability of larger web development agencies combined with the financial flexibility of a freelance web developer. With extensive experience of web-based software development, we offer effective solutions at rates your business can afford. Over the past 10 years, we have designed and built custom web applications for internet start-ups, established businesses and web design agencies.

Why choose us instead of an web agency?

Our web development rates are designed to suit your budget. A UK web development consultancy could charge up to £200 an hour—we have a flexible pricing structure to fit any budget.
You’ll work with the same team throughout the project. A web design company may send experienced sales people to pitch for a project, then hire a freelance developer or contractor to do the actual work.
You can depend on us both during and after the project. We look after your needs, whereas some large web development companies are too busy to be attentive to individual customers once their client have paid for the work.

Why choose us instead of a freelance web developer?

We are always reliable. Single freelancers may be over-committed with multiple contracts.
You can return to us again and again. A freelancer may be busy elsewhere, or may have changed their career path altogether.
We offer a diverse range of development skills provided by individual specialists. Some freelancers offer a comparable range, but the they are generalists, unable to respond to the bigger challenges.

So how do we do it?

Company founder, Vladimir Yakimenko, says:

“Before setting up Magic Web, I worked on contracts for various London web development agencies. During this time, I noticed that the customers often weren’t receiving what they’d been promised. That’s when I recognised a very real need for a company that offered the combined benefits of agencies and freelancers – but without the problems.

“I have achieved this by establishing a company based in two locations. First, in our office in Kent (UK) near London, our team of highly qualified specialists undertake all the business analysis and project management work. Second, I established a team in an offshore location, where the cost of labour and overheads are low. As the bulk of web development work is implementation and coding, this keeps our prices down. With your project manager working closely with you in the UK, you can only benefit from this set up.”

When working with magic you always win!
