Category: Web Development

I write about web development because I am a web developer. The writings could help other developers & anybody who want to do it themselves. Or anyone who got stuck at a certain point and I may give it an answer.

I already got some feedback (blog comments) from readers who said that my guideline helped them to solve their problems.

In this web development topic, I discuss the following things: Domain, Web Hosting, Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Localhost, FTP, CMS, and programming.

Also, I post case studies very frequently. See one of my case studies that shows why most websites fail »

By the way, if you don’t know, I also help people to create their websites. If you want to redesign your existing website or want to create a new one, feel free to reach out.

I wrote a short history of CSS. If you’re interested, check the post after. It also covers some other basic questions. Most of the CSS posts are experimental and include source code. These explain how to achieve something with CSS. Also, they contain my personal explanations and even videos where necessary.
