Becoming a better programmer

The job of a website programmer is to create the code that allows the site to look and function as it should. Many people think websites are created in a similar way to which you would create a presentation on Microsoft Publisher or in Word, but this is only true for very basic, often cheap plug and play sites.

Sites that are created by programmers include a number of different types of code to allow the correct layout and workings of the site. Programming is a skill and it can be learnt in a number of ways. Some programmers go to university or college to take a course in web programming where as others learn on the job. Building websites yourself is the best way to become an experienced programmer and the more you can build the better you will become. You may encounter problems along the way but each time you earn how to fix an issue it will help you again next time.
