            LOL! That is good.

            Even though when I'm asking what my job is from someone I really don't know, I say "webmaster" or I work with "internet marketing" - Only for the fact that I don't want people knowing I work in the adult industry.

                2. He's a FrontPage Expert

                Any developer / designer with a degree knows that Microsoft FrontPage most definitely isn't a professional tool. FrontPage will pass for Mom and Dad who want to create a website dedicated to their dogs, not someone who's trying to do business. I'd argue that a solid Web Developer should work at code level.

                  haha...nice read

                  i like the term webmaster though, but i get their meaning...that just invites more questions, so why not find a more relevant descriptive name

                            1. He Calls Himself a "Webmaster"

                            Any web guy that calls himself a "webmaster" probably isn't a master of anything. The term "webmaster" has become a translation for the word "amateur." The web has diversified into so many different realms that webmaster is no longer meaningful (was it ever though?)

                            7. He Mentions He's a HTML Expert

                            Who the hell isn't? I would argue that dropping any language acronym on a customer (PHP, Ruby on Rails, ColdFusion, etc.) unless they ask is meaningless fluff. A mechanic could use a banana on my car if it would fix it. Keep your tools, especially HTML, to yourself -- the customer doesn't care.
                            These two are absolute and utter nonsense.

                            Webmasters aren't designers or developers, so you shouldn't hire them to build your site. What you should hire them for is maintaining sites. That includes such things as integrating new functionality into the old design, performing quality control, maintaining content uniformity, etc. While webmasters might not be great designers, coders, seo specialists or sysadmins, they're perfect for ensuring that everything fits together well and stays that way.

                            As for the part on acronyms... those simply denote specific skills. Having someone indicate his specific skillset is absolutely essential, unless of course you want to hire "a skilled developer" to create a new front-end for your existing LAMP setup only to discover he's extremely skilled... at .NET development.

                            The author seems to be focusing merely on web design for corporate "business card" websites, which require very little back-end work and virtually no maintenance.

                                8. He'll Fit a Cool Counter on Your Site
                                You'll add an ugly relic of the early internet on my site so that my competitors have an idea of my web stats? Sweet!
                                Counters make a website look as unprofessional as possible -- don't use them.
