Web SITE REFERENCES

To create Web pages, you first create and/or edit files on your own computer, using a coding system called HTML. Then, when they are ready to go, you upload those files to OlympusNet. It is essential that you understand the elements and organization of the HTML coding scheme in order to have useful and attractive Web pages.

• A good place to learn about HTML is the NCSA Beginner's Guide to HTML. This tutorial is straightforward, easy to read, and easy to understand and apply.

• There are many other sources of information on the Web, including the HTML Writers Guild. (You can get straight into their material at HTML Writers Guild Resources.)

• There is an easy-to-follow HTML tutorial at www.pagetutor.com/pagetutor/makapage/.

• You can use the many WWW search engines and reference sites to find other Web design resources.

• You may learn about Web site copyrighting at The Copyright Website.

• You may learn about building sites from databases at Ignition Design.

You can also use newsgroups and reference books to learn about Web site design and construction.

If you do not understand this discussion, or are uninterested in learning a new computer language, we strongly recommend that you hire a consultant to create your Web page.
