There is certain software that can be downloaded, and then there is a type that is strictly based online and accessible through an internet web browser.

Online programs have a much different cost structure when compared to “normal” programs that you install and keep forever. Unlike normal programs that are installed onto the hard drive of the computer, online antivirus programs can only be used through an internet browser.
This brings up how you pay for the online version of the program. Instead of paying a one-time fee and then never having to pay again, you must pay a recurring fee either each month or each year. This is known as a subscription fee and you must maintain your subscription in order to access the service.
FEATURES
Online antivirus is quite different from its offline counterpart. For starters, you must have an internet connection and a web browser to access the program. The features and components of the programs are also different. Online antivirus generally has fewer features but is easier to use for beginners and has only the essential functions to make it whole.
One of the best aspects of using online antivirus software is that it is constantly updated and the virus database is always up to date. This means your computer will always be safe from the newest type of attacks and viruses.

Recently a few friends of mine had to deal with web developers as they got the idea to make an online based magazine for a small clothing brand to promote the clothing companies youth marketing strategy and incorporate the urban youths life-style into a publication that the targets would have access to at all time via their mobile phones and most importantly the internet.
Web developer refers to an individual or company that provides web building and maintaining services for their clients and/or customers.
As is usually the case when people from two industries meet the jargon and conversation had to be translated most of the time as the developer would mention scripting and to marketers that word is associated with copy for example.
What a web developer does:
• Design the whole site
• Draft layout and pages
• Find suitable host sites
• In required maintain the site
Good web developers will often set out a deadline of a week or two in advance giving themselves enough time to produce product that their clients would be happy with, much like the site mentioned above.
