Web Developer: This basically means someone who develops web based applications that use the fundamentals of server side scripting and rich media.

Web Programmer: is a coder. Both Developer and Programmer are interchangeable, they mean the same thing. So saying one over the other doesn't mean it's a different job. But if one does not just build website pages, one certainly does not want to be referred to as a Web Programmer, they are a Web Developer.

Another confusion.

Webmaster vs. Web Designer vs. Web Developer/WebDev

I noticed, these terminologies started to be interchanged sometime 2006..  What do you think guys?  How will you define these terms before and today?

[irockweb]

Actually these terms are somehow same in terms of work description. A web developer is a person who develops web application in various ways using different languages such as PHP, ASP, CFM, JSP, and etc.

hahahaha... JC nandito ka din pala. hehehe....

web programmer = very specific job
web developer = tend to have more skills aside from programming like project management, project directing, and knows a bit of design.

web developer -  person who develop an application through web based.... for the server scripting and some security.

web programmer - a person who modify, update or he/she involved for the manipulating some codes eka nga spagetti codes...

Web Master  - is both designer and developer who maintain the website..

Web designer - person who involved for the design for thea application through web

[voodzzz]

Web Developer / Programmer - the, builds server side codes, business logic, database schema

Web Designer - Mag design lang and convert to markup language (HTML) and CSS, & Flash

Web Master - Coder, recodes the website if necessary, maintains website, maintains the server, maintains content management system, redesign some graphic structure if necessary

[karloblogero]

Web programmer - Someone who codes programs to do a specific stuff on the web.

Web Developer - Has a wider set of skills just like what necrolyte said. Aside from programming, they know other stuff. Basically, these are the people who can build a website from the ground up.

As for web designer, I believe when you say "web designer", design lang talaga and it doesn't necessarily mean that they know how to code.

supposed to be but nowadays, companies are demanding more skills for the web designers. nag evolve na din kasi eh.... yung mga graphic artist, nag aral ng web, kaya naging malupit na web designer. very nice combination.

long story short, web developer > web programmer

[jhayronel]

sabi nila... webmaster = all around : web developer = maintenance or moderator : web programmer: eto ung may aplets na program na like asp jsp.. php mga ganun.. siya ang gumagawa.

@Jhayronel: I find the title webmaster futile. I find it impossible to master the web with technologies popping up like mushrooms. but thats just me. 

[Jason]

for me theyre all the same thing nowadays.... but before it was really specific and each one is so distinct...

now, a web designer should know javascript and xml for AJAX, a dev should likewise be very proficient in XHTML standards and CSS, a webmaster will be using photoshop aswell as dreamweaver....

now you should be flexible to land a job no matter what the title says...
but i brand myself as a Systems and Web Developer since im basically a Programmer(slash)Designer(slash)Janitor... I also do my own server scripting and maintenance...

as a quote ive read from some random blog yesterday.... Stop designing websites - start designing posters... wait better find the link..

just my 2 cents po respect na lang

[kenet13]

web designer - nakakaubos ng idea at creativity
web developer - nakakatuyo ng utak
webmaster - nakakaubos ng pasensya.
