Basically I want to know what each of those title means? What would be other names for people who develop websites using php and mysql?

A: 

They all means the same thing. No particular different. But if there is a need to differentiate between them....

  • Web Developer is a person who normally install and configure and manage a website using popular content management software.
  • Web application developer is a person who develop applications ( mostly business level and internal ) that can be used through browser.
  • Web software developer creates public facing software such as this website.

...but again, its just musing. It all means same thing.

I'd like to disagree with your definitions and/or add a `[citation needed]`. Why does a "developer" only install and configure? Where's the difference between "software" and "application"?

@deceze Useless questions earn useless answers. There's no option to close for being useless :(

Perhaps you could argue that the question is "too localized," because no one in the real world needs to distinguish between these titles...

A: 

Application/software developers write business rules for the web developers.
