skills and familiarity with tools, which can be mastered only through
sustained practice. This field does offer opportunities to travel abroad
and interact with clients.
Web
Master: a web master is responsible for maintaining the web page,
analyse number of hits and monitor performance of the site. A web master
is the pivot of the web site. He is responsible for everything on the

and the content person have. He should possess good managerial and communication
skills too. It is a highly responsibility job. It is not safe to aim
