Is the graphic designer a web designer? Whilst there is a lot of overlapping skills, generally web is considered to require specialist expertise related to websites, whereas (at least where I'm from) graphic designers focus on things like logos, advertisements, brochures etc. And likewise, building a website requires a number of skills, many of which are not related to design per se (e.g. information architecture, programming, SEO). Someone who sells themselves as a designer may be a specialist only in the design side of things, not the rest.
