A Web designer is a person who focuses on the design of a site. They often build the CSS and graphics for a site and are focused on how the site looks to customers. A Web developer is more of a programmer. They often build the HTML (and sometimes CSS) for a site as well as the JavaScript, databases, and server-side programming. While I realize that most of us do at least a little (or a lot) of both of these disciplines, there is one that you focus more on. I left off the option "both" deliberately because I want to know what you do more of, even if it's 50.1% design and 49.9% development. Choose "neither" if you do something else on a website like provide content or you are still learning and don't have a focus yet.
