The development of network technology in this century is jaw-dropping. I remember that in 2005, websites were a rarity. Anyone who could build a website was a talent. It can be said that they were all national treasures and giant pandas. Many people made money using their own skills. With the first pot of gold, I embarked on the road to success and a well-off life. What is surprising is that in just one or two years, websites have sprouted like mushrooms after rain, and the number of webmasters has also increased dramatically. With the growth, the technical threshold is getting lower and lower. To build a website, you only need to click a few steps and a website with complete functions and beautiful interface will be born. Due to the lowering of the technical threshold and the increase in the number of webmasters, the number of webmasters has generally increased. The salary has been severely reduced, and it is even difficult to maintain their own life. Recently, major forums have been filled with complaints from major webmasters and statements about quitting IT. People can't help but ask, has the era of webmasters passed?
I am a small webmaster of www.wangbainian.cn who has been in Jinan for a hundred years. I have some opinions in my short career as a webmaster, and I would like to share them with all the big webmasters.
I personally think that no, this is not the end, this is the incubation period for the next webmaster outbreak. Now I have summarized the following points.
1. The number of people building websites seems to have increased several times, but in fact the technology is uneven. This has resulted in the seemingly doubled number of websites on the Internet, but in fact the number of spam websites on the Internet is the largest, but excellent ones The website is still developing steadily. As people slowly adapt to this introduction, they also gradually realize the dangers of spam websites. False advertisements and spam information confuse various effective information. People's calls for the removal of spam websites are also increasing. It is getting higher and higher. The main reason why there are so many spam websites is technical problems. These spam websites not only fail to bring money and benefits to webmasters, but also increase their burdens, such as paying for space domain names, In particular, it is a waste of energy to take care of the website. At the same time, major well-known search engines have also increased their penalties for spam websites, and even deleted them. This has reduced their website traffic to almost zero, which makes spam websites even more difficult. It is difficult to survive on the Internet, and a group of webmasters will naturally be eliminated.
2. The self-service website building system makes website construction foolproof. It allows a person with average skills to build a website. However, self-service website building has several fatal shortcomings.
(1) The format is the same without its own characteristics (2) Layout changes are laborious (3) Post-maintenance costs are high (4) The most important thing is that the security of the website is worrying. These websites that are destined to be built by self-service cannot be included in the list of excellent websites. When people who really need a website are aware of these problems, then those who really know how to build a website will be more valuable, and they will get better treatment.
I believe that the confused situation of webmasters will be broken in the near future. I believe that gold will always shine. Webmasters, hold on, let's encourage each other.
