Any website that is currently online will utilize both of these two concepts, however they are differing in a few key ways. Website design corresponds to designing the look and feel of a website, taking into consideration the brand colors, assets, copy, products and/or services, then structuring the pages to present a cohesive webpage experience for the end-user. Website design can integrate UX/UI design as well as graphic design and various plugins or applications. Website Development has more to do with what is behind the scenes of a website, including the hosting environment, domain servers, and site architecture. All websites will have some form of basic web development take place simply to bring the website live on the internet while others may need more extensive development with custom coding and applications built into the webpages.
