As a website and\u00a0web application development company<\/a>, we have been asked many times the difference between a website and a web app. So here is an article to help businesses understand the difference.<\/p>

A Website displays useful content to masses. The aim of a website is to educate people about a companies or individuals products, services or achievements. More advanced websites may have features such as eCommerce, content management and dynamic content.<\/p>

A Web Application provides advance functionality which helps in the performance of business and increase user interaction and transactions.<\/p>

SnapDeal, Flipcart, eBay, quikr, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter are examples of web application. Even your bank providing online banking is a web application. If you can think of a site where you create an account, log in, and conduct some actual business, it\u2019s probably a web application.<\/p>

Web application can be presented as a website or as a part of a website, but not all websites are web app!<\/p>

Many large sites are a blend of two. For example mahavat.gov.in is a good example of a website with a web application built into it. A member of general public can go to mahavat.gov.in and get information on various Taxes, get tax updates, download forms etc. This part of the site is just a regular old website.<\/p>

However if I have an account and login the mahavat.gov.in website , I am taken to a protected part of the website where I can fill form and make payment for PT, Sales Tax and so on. This part of the site is a web application- it facilitates business action over the web.<\/p>

Here are\u00a0Satej Infotech<\/a>\u00a0we develop websites and web based applications. Most common requirement from our customers is to have a Content Management System (CMS) through which they can manage content of their website.<\/p>

1. We have been involved in the development of many\u00a0custom web application<\/a>. Our most recent web application development was for foundry website\u00a0foundrycluster.com<\/a>\u00a0. This is a website where foundry industry associated companies all over the world can become paid members and sell and buy foundry casting, material, equipments, services and so on.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

3. We built another web based application that provided an online business directory for engineering companies all over India. At\u00a0theengineeringportal.in<\/a>\u00a0members can get free and paid membership. Each paid member is then given a dedicated listing through which they can display their products\/services, company profile and contact details. Buyers can place their buying requirements which are then emailed to paid members.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
