Website Design?

Hi,

I%26#039;m looking to design a basic website for my band as they%26#039;re doing pretty well locally now. I%26#039;m looking to do it my self. I have purchased a domain name but not yet a host. What are the next steps?

Does any one have any links to decent HTML guides etc (not too much reading).

Thank you.

Website Design?

You can learn HTML (I insist my website design students learn HTML first.)

I would go to:

http://www.w3.org

http://freehtmlbook.com

Learn the basics then use an editor to design the website.

(Much easier then designing a page in HTML!)

I use both FrontPage and Dreamweaver but they cost $.

NVu and Kompozer are free HTML editors and they are great for starting out.

When you look at hosting make sure you have enough space and bandwidth. I only host with services that provide a CPanel interface.

Upload your website to your hosting. (called FTP)

After you set up the hosting you set the DNS servers of your domain name to point to your hosting.

Now type in www.yourdomainname.com and you should see your website.

probably best to use a builder tool if you are looking to get a site up in the next few weeks or months.....

IE frontpage, dreamweaver etc.

but if you really want to learn HTML then i would start with

the site http://www.echoecho.com that is great for html and if you get a chance look for a book called

%26quot;HTML for the world wide web%26quot; by Elizabeth Castro

great learning and referance book that I still use even today.

Other Replys:You might play with the free PageBreeze (and look at the HTML produced):

Other Replys:You can start with a wysiwyg editor (what you see is what you get). Dreamweaver is an excellent example of this. It%26#039;s great to start off, but it adds some crummy code so you%26#039;ll want to learn at least the basics of html.

Good luck
