    I don’t know how you would get more specific.

    Web Master would have been a better title…

    Well, “Web Developer” is effectively a compound (like in German, we do the same thing but often just keep the spaces between the words).

    With a compound, the connection between the words sometimes has to be inferred, usually by inserting an appropriate preposition.

    Usually, something like “Developer on the Web” would probably be what we understand.

    In TBL’s case … it’s “Developer OF the Web”.

      I think it’s a little more idiomatic (at least where I’m from in the US) to specify this difference as, “a web developer” vs “the web’s developer”
