You probably need to create a website for your company but you do not know what the development of it involves and you are not familiar with the internet terminology. In this article we will briefly explain what you need.

Basically, a site is composed of 3 key elements:

  1. Domain
  2. Server (web hosting)
  3. Design and programming

The domain is the address with which you get to your website, example: www.google.com. It is just an easy name to remember that will identify you on the internet.

The server is a computer specially configured to deliver internet content constantly. Although its main function is to show websites, it can also offer other services such as databases, emails, visit statistics, and more.

The design implies all the graphic material necessary to present the website: images, photos, videos, types and colors of letters. It also has to do with the layout of the content and the combination of colors, backgrounds and forms in a way that is easy to understand and navigate.

Programming is necessary to meet specific needs, these can be as basic as a search engine on the site to an online product catalog. This is one of the factors that most affect the cost of a project due to its complexity and time of development and implementation.
