Doing it all as a “web designer”—how do you describe yourself?

January 5, 2010

I wrote before on finding a decent job title as someone who builds websites since “web designer” doesn’t do it for me.  I just took A List Apart’s 2009 Web Survey, and this single question brought the problem up again in my mind.  What do you call yourself when you’re more than a designer?

A List Apart Web Survey 2009

Anyone else find themselves in this position?  I’m not saying I’m a bona fide expert in each of these, but I work within these subsets of the web often and have enough of a proficiency to say I am competent.

Yet from job title to clients (and former employers), I’m supposed to be pigeon-holed into one or two of these.

How many of you out there cover the whole spectrum?

A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE ASKED about the background photo on this site. It was taken on the beach by Fort Moultrie on the harbor side of Sullivan's Island, SC. The old, wooden sea wall has been there as long as I've lived in Charleston. The beach is a great place to watch the ships and shrimpers come in and has one of the best views of downtown Charleston.
