CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE PROJECT
Web development involves developing a website for the Internet (World Wide Web) or an intranet according to [Techopedia.com, 2018]. Web development can range from developing a simple single static page of plain text to complex web-based internet applications, electronic businesses, and social network services. A more comprehensive list of tasks to which web development commonly refers, may include web engineering, web design, web content development, client liaison, client-side/server-side scripting, web server and network security configuration, and e-commerce development.
Among web professionals, “web development” usually refers to the main non-design aspects of building websites: writing markup and coding according to [Campbell, 2017]. Web development may use content management systems (CMS) to make content changes easier and available with basic technical skills.
For larger organizations and businesses, web development teams can consist of hundreds of people (web developers) and follow standard methods like Agile methodologies while developing websites. Smaller organizations may only require a single permanent or contracting developer, or secondary assignment to related job positions such as a graphic designer or information systems technician. Web development may be a collaborative effort between departments rather than the domain of a designated department. There are three kinds of web developer specialization: front-end developer, back-end developer, and full-stack developer. Front-end developers are responsible for behavior and visuals that run in the user browser, while back-end developers deal with the servers.
1.2 PROBLEM STATEMENT
Developing a site overcomes problems seen in opening a physical business place such as money paid for running an advert, paying and renewal of rent, one-on-one attention to customers, burglary attack and many others. Using a developed website for business makes the business a worldwide business and reduces expenses observed in running a physical business. More entrepreneurs can now open home-based businesses which can save them money because of reduced expenses like rent and gasoline, among others. With this, the problem of employment can be partly solved and women can be empowered. There are numerous tools and platforms that allow people to freelance their skills from home.
1.3 AIM AND OBJECTIVE

1.4 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
Website development is a way to make people aware of the services and/or products you are offering, understand why your products are relevant and even necessary for them to buy or use, and see which of your company’s qualities set it apart from competitors.
1.5 ADVANTAGES OF WEBSITES
- Unlimited Information
There are millions and millions of websites committed to different topics that we couldn’t even think about. There are many issues solving, confusion erasing, IQ enhancing information which you can acquire just by typing the keyword and the result is displayed in just a second. The concept which says knowing things is better is not only applied but also implemented through websites. You can solve your children’s homework with online learning app or contacting teachers on school’s websites.
- Bridging The Culture Gap
There are billions of people around the world, 200+ countries, each country having a population with different lifestyles, cultures, food, and entertainment according to their landscape and ancient history.
Now here comes the invaluable assistance of the website where it helps to know the culture, food, lifestyle, music, and entertainment.
- Communication
The main advantage of a website is faster communication through any device and faster than any device. It has brought the world into the palm of the hand, big monuments in our small rooms and far away members close to our eyes that also just in a second.
Websites for video conferencing and chat has bought the communication mode just a click away. Emails are used as the model for conveying confidential messages as per the security issues. It has made the mode of communication much cheaper without spending a single penny and communicates as long as you want and as far as you want.
- Follow Your Passion
There was a time when doctors and engineering used to only be the two professions and business used to be done by the rich people only. Now website did not only changed the concept of work, but it also helps people understand and know that there are many other fields and each field has its own scope.
- Job Opportunities
It encourages freelancing works where people can work from home as well as apply for jobs online which saves them time. They can apply for many jobs online when a vacancy is announced with the post they want to apply for and go for interviews rather than going to the office by the office and asking if any vacancy is available.
- Banking Services
Businesses in each and every vertical need to have their own website which itself shows its importance. Banks also want their customers or employees all over the country to be connected, having their own website where customers can go check their account information, day to day activities of bank and new schemes, which will improve the customer-bank relationship.
- Marketing
The marketing sector is in the new height and in the high mainly benefited by websites. Here the start-up business and the existing ones both are treated equally, they reach out to their clients and offer their products and services, the convincing one wins the race.
- Endless Entertainment
The entertainment industry is widely growing and gaining popularity because of websites. Movies, songs, videos, games, etc are available on the website for free. You can upload the songs movies and even earn through the platform such as YouTube.
- Emergency Calling
In case of any emergency, for example, some errors occur in your personal computer or mobile we never rush to the technician or the repair shop. We take our time to open the website and search for the solution as websites provide the site where people will be discussing the same problem as our which they face frequently.
And for the people who want to use herbs as the medicinal purpose for certain mild fever and cough, it provides the complete procedure, where you should be intellectual to compare it in many sites rather than following blindly the single site.
1.6 DISADVANTAGES OF WEBSITES
- Risks Privacy
The personal information that you share on websites is completely traceable. This may be used for crime prevention or gaining market data but your personal privacy is at stake. The real-time photos that your share when you are on vacation shows you are not at home, details about your assets may attract people with negative intentions.
- Encourages Illegal Activity
Along with the advantages and opportunities created unintended consequences of websites are illegal and dangerous activities. The information accessed has given opportunities for terrorist attacks, kidnapping and many other types of data crimes.
It also created crimes of different sorts like piracy, which is downloading or distributing materials and earning money from the content without the permission of the owner. People hampered by piracy are artists, software developers, and production companies, where the latest album and latest movies are just hitting the market you can download it for free.
Blackmailing people by using the edited videos or images, cause once it’s uploaded you cannot blame or file a case against the website and your image and character are compromised. Websites may encourage such illegal activities that earn you money without any investment but ill thoughts.
- Dependence & Less Productivity
In an era when all the business activities and transactions are being done by website, what happen it’s your website is down or hacked or crashes. Now you are invisible in the market and your existence is omitted. Without any written data or bills it’s impossible to track down your past activities and transactions made, your company can easily be shattered.
The productivity of the human mind is lessened by the extreme sites and software which are embedded in websites for doing more than half of their work. They just need to do give the numbers and all the detailing and processing are done by the site. Students and teachers write their note from the websites which mean people won’t be having a different perspective.
They will do and believe what past generations have done, which means how today’s world is growing faster ignoring the barrier made by our ancestors this generation is barring themselves inside the past world avoiding research and physical activity. The dullness of the mind results in less productivity.
- Children Are Vulnerable and Exposed
The true age cannot be verified on the internet, children can be easily faked by the id which may risk their lives as they are unable to verify the content and get excited soon.
Along with finding inappropriate materials online, like pornographic contents it may hamper the children’s psychology and behavior. Bullying can invite some serious issues where an unintentional accident may happen. But it also may occur online, through emails or via text messages.
Newer examples including making fake profiles of people on websites or posting embarrassing photos or videos on social media.
- Online Addiction
Excessive use of online materials and habit of continuously watching the series playing games and movies hampers the health of the person. A nervous disorder causing excessive uneasiness and apprehension and even develop panic attacks.
Many games involve rewarding the player and driving them to continue through another cycle and retaining them in the game. The anticipation of such rewards can create a neurological reaction that releases dopamine into the body so that once the reward is obtained, the person will remember it as a pleasurable feeling.
- Unable to Socialize
The website helps connect people making new friends abroad and far away from home, but at the same time you are ignoring the people who you need most when you are in trouble or whose assistance you need the most “your close ones” and “your society”.
We like chatting on websites but do not prefer talking face to face, we find hard to make eye contact, it may not impact our social status but also alters our thinking and psychology.
This addiction can be so great that people become preoccupied with the website, risking their jobs in real life and significant personal relationships for the chance to connect with others online.
- Spam and Advertising
Some phony business websites scam people into purchasing items that don’t even exist, where the money is being paid online and materials will be of low quality or the empty stock mail is being delivered to the customer.
Advertising or ad can be seen in the websites wherein clicking one site opens multiple tabs irritating the users and sometimes those ads will be containing a virus or be used by hackers as well. The business proposal or forum is kept on the site and the small number of donations are collected from millions of people and when the large sum is collected the website crashes, people won’t bother as they invested less amount.
