Small Business Owners: Learn HTML - Save Time And Money
Ever needed to make a quick update to your website but had to wait for your web designer to get to it? Don’t wait another minute or spend another dollar for someone to change a few sentences for you— Do it yourself.
Learning the basics of managing your web site can save you time and money. And learning the basics begins with learning HTML.
Some might say, “Wait a minute, with great tools like FrontPage and Dreamweaver that build web pages for you, why bother?” Well, by learning the basics, you’ll at least have an understanding of how the pages those programs produce actually work.
You’ll also gain the confidence necessary to fix or update pages on your own. And, who knows, maybe you’ll want to start creating web pages on your own. The code you write will certainly be easier to edit by hand in the future.
Try this:
- From your Windows “Start” menu, click “Run”, type
notepad, and click “OK”. - Now, type this:
<html> <head> <title>My title</title> </head> <body> <h2>My header</h2> <p>My paragraph</p> </body> </html>
- Click “File”, then “Save As”, and save the file on your Desktop as
webpage.html. - Now, on your Desktop, double-click the
webpage.htmlfile you just saved.
Congratulations, this is the web page you just created. Pretty easy, right? The good news is, it really doesn’t get much tougher than that— HTML is so simple, you can literally learn it in an hour or two. Here’s a good tutorial to get you started.
Learning HTML gets you well on your way toward managing your own site and saving money in the process.
