Is It Easy to Create your own
Website?
Creating a website is not so much a feat, if we compare it to the education of other technical skills.
Most people tend to give up and pack their bags as soon as they hear the word “programming” and “technical”.
They think it`s too much of a hassle to actually learn a whole computer “language”. HTML, the most basic
computer language in building websites, is actually pretty simple to understand, as long as we have the interest in
learning new things.
What is HTML?
HTML is the acronym for Hyper Text Markup Language. For learning purposes, just think of it as a language that
the computer understands.
For example, as humans, we were taught different languages; i.e. HTML as a language, is mostly and specifically
used to create a website.
The web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox, will then decipher and interpret the
code or rather, language(HTML), and display it in a way we can understand it, just like in a basic webpage.
What is Coding?
Coding the HTML language might be a bit tough for some people, so we can actually purchase programmes, such as
Macromedia Dreamweaver, or even Microsoft Frontpage.
These programmes are solely created to help individuals in designing professional webpages/websites.
Furthermore, one could also gain access to online web-builders, website builders that are inbuilt and can be
directly controlled from the net.
There are many different and specific builders online.
Books and magazines contain guides that can help in offering tutorials and ways to put up our own websites.
Even online tutorials are credible, as in the modern world, information technology is the best and most cost
efficient way in retaining knowledge, especially in this particular field.
So, you could start and build one right away. If you enjoy coding, it might even become a favourable
past-time.
Build Websites without knowing html at all!
There are some good website building software out there called "wysiwyg" editors.
"WYSISWG" is short for "What You See IS What You Get".
I have been using XSitePro since 2005 and have made it my wysiwyg editor of
choice.
