Let’s imagine a situation, where you have to revamp your website, or create a new one. Unless you can design like a pro, you will have to avail web design services. At this juncture, it is worthwhile to ask yourself if you can afford to confuse the job titles. The one-word answer is - no.

Web Designers
Web designers are of the creative type. Their skill lies in their ability to penetrate into the heads of their clients, figure out what they want, and make a website design that meets the imagination of clients. They start with a vision and convert it into an aesthetically pleasing work of art that leaves an impression on viewers. Web designers draw upon the fields of typography, usability, and user interface design to create a website. Their skills include ability to code in XHTML and CSS.
