Use this basic HTML to start making your own website
Having a website has become a necessity in today's world. Aside from providing information, websites provide a venue for individuals and businesses to advertise their products or services and for keeping potential clients or customers updated on developments.
Many years ago, I decided to create my own website by using an old version of Microsoft Publisher. It left me frustrated because there were things that I couldn't do with the WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) program. I then decided that I should learn a website language. At first, I was a bit apprehensive because, like many beginners, I really thought that it would take me a long time to build my first website, but I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it was really an easy task!
Although there are many online websites dedicated entirely to tutoring users on how to create a website; the truth is that a basic website is nothing more than a few simple codes placed on a plain text editor and saved as an HTML file. Believe me it will soon become clear to you that websites are actually very easy to create.
If you don't know what HTML is? Don't worry. Read that following simple introduction.
HTML, or HyperText Markup Language, is the programming language for creating websites. It is what Wikipedia refers to as the "basic building-blocks of webpages." As such, a knowledge of the basic codes of HTML will equip you with sufficient knowledge on how to create a basic website.
The codes of HTML are called tags. Tags come in pairs and are enclosed in angle brackets < >. They can act either to format or present texts, images or other contents. The following are the HTML codes that create a basic website:
<HTML>
- <HEAD>
- <TITLE>My wonderful website</TITLE>
- </HEAD>
- <BODY>
- Welcome to my wonderful website!
- </BODY>
- </HTML>
In the above example, we have the following tags:
- <HTML> </HTML>
- <HEAD> </HEAD>
- <TITLE> </TITLE>
- <BODY> </BODY>
These four simple tags compose the basic website. The first tag in the pair is called the opening tag, while the second is called the closing tag.
The <TITLE> tag presents the text that will appear on the head of the browser. It is important because search engines use the title for indexing purposes. A well thought of title allows for the website to gain a prominent spot in search results.
Everything that in enclosed in the <BODY> tag appears on the website itself. Here you can add text, images, and other items that are allowed by HTML. For example, the above illustration of a simple website will yield a simple website with white background on which is written "Welcome to my wonderful website!"
The codes can be written on a simple plain text editor and saved as filename.html. The word "filename" can be replaced with any name but you must not forget the ".html" for it to save as an HTML file which you can open in your favorite browser.
That's it! You have created your first basic website. Anything else that you learn after this, such as formatting text and adding images, will be beyond basic, but will nevertheless be easy to follow. Although it is useful to know some HTML, nowadays you can bypass learning about codes altogether. I have created a FREE video guide which will show you how to easily create a website using WordPress. http://www.createmyownwebpage.net. This is a FREE software which writes all the coding for you. This way, you really can't go wrong!
