HTML Help!

So, you think the idea of my making a website sounds like a really cool idea, but you don't know where to start? Well, I'm not a professional, however I have learned a lot about HTML and webdesign through sites like Funky-Chickens. From that I have created websites such as the one you were previously viewing before you clicked to come here. The following should help you with starting your own sites, make sure to tell me what the address, or URL of your website is once you get started so I can check up on how you're doing and possibly give you some advice as to how to make it better! Good Luck!

Luv,
Rachel


Getting a Domain

AngelfireI use angelfire for my pages. I really like Angelfire, however it is hard to use if you don't know HTML yet. It also has those annoying pop-ups.
GeocitiesI tried using Geocities a while back and I found it extremely confusing. I know a lot of people who use it and like it though.
HomesteadMy friend Crystal told me she liked Homestead so I tried it. It was okay, but I would rather be able to use HTML and I couldn't figure out how to get a blank site to start with. But if you are a beginer it is a good place to start.
ExpageVery easy to use for beginers! No HTML is needed in order to use Expage. No annoying popups, however they have an Ad display at the top of their pages.
TripodRelativly easy to use, but not so easy for beginners. No ads, which is a really big plus.
ChickpagesIf you know enough HTML, this is a really great server to use. It's pretty easy, and uploads images clearly.


Making The Beginings Of Your Site

On everything EXCEPT expage, you should put the following codes. Some advanced HTML codes require you to put them in different sections of the site, which are designated by these codes. For example, a site might tell you to put an HTML code in the head section, which you would need these codes for. They aren't neccessary, but here is the order of the sections of your site if you want to put it on:

<html> <head> </head> <title>TITLE GOES HERE</title> <body>EVERYTHING ON YOUR SITE GOES HERE... HTML CODES, TEXT </body></html>


Some Basics In HTML

To make text bold, what you do is:

<b>BOLD TEXT HERE</b

To make text underlined, what you do is:

<u>UNDERLINED TEXT HERE</u>

To make text in italics, what you do is:

<i>ITALIC TEXT HERE</i>
