The Reason Why You Should Select Custom Web-site Development Over Template Design

For many small companies, cost is one of the primary deciding factors when it comes to what kind of website development company owners select to invest in. Considering that the costs of developing a custom-coded web site can vary so widely - from a few thousands of bucks to tens of thousands - businesses often steer clear of custom coders, opting instead for templated web sites developed on web-site platforms like WordPress or Joomla. You can find a evaluation chart at our website κατασκευή ιστοσελίδων.

Web sites developed from templates could possibly average smaller rates than custom built web pages, but what they get in price point they usually lack in functions and flexibility.Custom websites offer far more special style and design. Template webpages force developers to work within just a pre-determined page layout and design features. Besides from the capability to modify background color and probably text, template web sites offer little space for developers to alter the web site’s look, content placement and navigation. Websites custom built from code, on the other hand, provide an unlimited variety of design possibilities, and can be customized to any kind of look. Think of the difference between plugging someone’s company logo and contact info into a business card template, and having a business card designed just for that business. Like business cards, websites are a key visual representation of a company brand, and web-site templates often look like just that - web templates. Whilst there are countless different web site templates out there, many of them are more likely to offer the very same design functions and functionality, and web-savvy visitors can spot a web-site template. Custom websites make it possible for businesses to keep away from that “cookie cutter” look with a one-of-a-kind exclusive style and design. Custom coded web pages offer alot more robust functions. While template web pages are confined to the navigation, structure and widget applications presented in the web template, custom developed webpages’ capabilities are limited solely by the designer’s mind and experience. Please visit wikipedia for more information about Web Development techniques.

The reality is that a large number of businesses don’t simply need a website; they need a web-site with customized applications capable of managing, analyzing and displaying data and/or content. For big scale business owners, template web pages will certainly never offer the features necessary to run the kind of custom-built apps designed to help their websites - and businesses - operate most effectively. Web site templates are mainly as adaptable as the simple widgets which often come with them. Custom web sites can offer far more value at the same cost of template designs. While custom developed website pages may, overall, average higher in fees than template webpage design, not all custom web pages cost much more than template web pages. Many WordPress developers who work from pre-purchased website templates charge as much - or even more - than competitively priced freelance web site developers. The reality is that web site coders - whether custom developers or template designers - range quite widely in how they price their services. If cost is an critical factor for your webpage, it’s preferred to check around to see which developer offers the best value and quality. You could possibly be surprised to find that custom web site coders offer just as much - or even more - as their template designing counterparts, regularly at the same price or lower.

luckyshirt: Dear guy who just made my burrito: Have you ever been to earth? On earth, we use the word “burrito” to describe a tortilla filled with things you eat. Pretty simple stuff, and I’m surprised you at least got that part right. My burrito was, in fact, filled with food. In this, you and I agree and are friends. But this is also where my lifelong hatred begins for you and anyone else whose brain has been repeatedly scrubbed with the same mixture of bleach and Pop Rocks as yours has. Because that should have killed you, but left you around long enough to do what you did to me today. Let me explain: You’re an idiot. Let me further explain: Burritos are eaten from one end to the other. So that means when you assemble a burrito with motherfucking ZONES of ingredients from one end to the other, you create a disgusting experience for the burrito’s end user. When you make a burrito, you should put the ingredients in layers lengthwise. That way, every bite has AT LEAST A FUCKING CHANCE of getting at least two types of ingredients, and there is little chance of becoming almost hopelessly trapped in a goddamned cilantro cavern. Have you ever eaten one of the things you make all fucking day? You should try one. They are pretty good WHEN YOU ARE NOT WILLING YOURSELF THROUGH THE FUCKING EMPIRE OF SOUR CREAM TO ONLY TO END UP IN LETTUCE COUNTRY. When you eat a burrito, you don’t stand it up and bite down on it lengthwise like a fucking Rancor. Humans cannot usually dislocate their jaws to accommodate such methods. But you must think that’s how it’s done, since that would be THE ONLY FUCKING WAY to take a bite of your crapstrosity and have it taste like a burrito and not a multi-stage rocket to the planet Fucking Disgustingupiter. And guess what else, player? You can’t guess anything, because I’m pretty sure you’re just a mop with a hat on it that fell over and spilled some shit into a tortilla, but just in case, here’s what: Humans also don’t eat burritos like fucking corn on the cob. Like a fucking typewriter from one end to the other a little at a time and then DING next line. But today I wish I had tried that. Because at least THEN I would be able to eat some rice, then beans, then be all like HEY BEANS I’LL BE RIGHT BACK JUST GOING OVER HERE TO THE GUACAMOLE FOR A SECOND. Nope. My experience was more like HEY BEANS IT’S JUST GOING TO BE YOU AND I FOR A MINUTE UNTIL I CAN FUCKING EXCAVATE THE RICE FROM BENEATH YOU BUT BY THEN YOU WILL BE A FADING MEMORY OH HEY I WAS WRONG I’M IN THE FUCKING CHEESEOSPHERE NOW RICE MUST BE NEXT I HOPE IT’S NOT ANOTHER FUCKING SALSA POCKET. And don’t even fucking think I’m about to open this shit up and re-engineer this nonsense. I ALREADY PUT A HOLE IN IT WITH MY FUCKING MOUTH. YEAH. THAT’S HOW I DISCOVERED YOU FUCKING SUCK AT LOOKING AT THINGS. I AM NOT GOING TO DO FUCKING TORTILLA ORIGAMI TO GET THIS SHIT BACK TOGETHER. In conclusion: You’re the worst thing that has ever happened to the universe, you owe everyone everywhere an apology for this burritobomination, and I hope your babies look like monkeys. UPDATE: To everyone who keeps saying “WHOEVER WROTE THIS THANK YOU” You’re welcome. And to everyone compelled to say “FIRST WORLD PROBLEM CALM THE FUCK DOWN ITS A BURRITO BITCH UR A FAG WHY ARE YOU GETTING SO MAD”: That’s the joke. -luckyshirt

As the Tunisian election approaches, artists and citizen action groups are putting a lot of effort into get out the vote videos. Some are fairly cliché get out the vote videos (although, as Max Fisher at the Atlantic points out, that in itself is its own kind of impressive), and others are musical. I have a particular fondness for the music video Enti Essout put together by Tunisian singers. There’s also an awesome get out the vote ad by the Association of Tunisian Women directed at encouraging women to use these elections to stand up for their own rights in the post-revolutionary society. 

This one, however, is in my opinion, the best one out there. It’s brief, kind of chilling, and very affecting. In the video a huge poster of Ben Ali appears in La Goulette in Tunis, where people begin to mill around it, shocked, afraid and confused until a group of them finally decides simply to pull it down. The message underneath reads, “Beware. Dictatorship can return. Vote on October 23rd.” Wow.

Read Max Fisher’s article on the Tunisian election videos at the Atlantic and a blog post about them here.
