Default Re: Web Design or Web Development

"Web design" is simply the act of designing a website. That can cover any-and-everything from site layout and information hierarchy through to the look and style - but it's not just artwork. "Web development" is more the coding side, making a design into a working model.

In real world terms, there's a lot of overlap. Most website designers will do the integration/development as well (to some degree, anyway). "Website designer" has become quite a generic term for a number of website creation skills.

And also, do you do this type of work often?
A fair bit. More and more clients are going for CMS systems as they prefer the convenience of being able to make changes when they like.
