Making a website is not easy atfirst, and like everything else takes patience and skill! I learned this first hand!!!

First you'll need to know HTML/HTM (which are the same tag ups)

The things in a website which make the website up are all in for instance to have italic tags it is: . Now it is not required that you close your tags in HTML/HTM, but strongly suggested, as the new wave of websites are moving to XHTML. How to close a tag? Simply put the same tag you started with that you want to close at the end of the blurb you're writing and add a backslash, like the example below shows that I made "HELLO EVERYONE!" italic by adding , and at the end I added the closing tag

ex: HELLO EVERYONE!

These are some simple examples of HTML. To really get to know it, you need to experiment. Books, movies, and classes don't help! But playing with it first hand does!

There are two types of parts in a HTML document. There are the "body" and the "head" as they're called.

BODY
The body explains it self! It's the juice of the website, the body! It contains what WILL be seen to the public's eye. It would contain the example we included before.

HEAD
This is the side-kick, the backbone to a HTML structure (the backbone if you don't have anything else running with HTML, for example: PHP. Begginnners don't worry about this!).
The head also includes your page title (My Website) your meta () if you want to include styles of CSS, you'd put them here by incorporating them into the tags of the opening CSS definition, and the closing definition:

Or... you can add javascript in your head. And that's wrapped in the tags: (please check on these tags)

The tags for the head and body are simple!
All the content that is part of your head, MUST be wrapped in a and tag, of course, is the beginining, and at the end of your head. Both these tags are necessary, and YOU NEED a closing tag for the head!

All the content that is part of your body, MUST be wrapped in a and tag, of course, is the beginining, and at the end of your body. It's only necessary to have the first tag, , but it's STRONGLY suggested that you use both!

NOW THE HTML TAG!
You don't really need an HTML tag, but for good measure, add an tag at the very first line of your HTML document, and make it the first thing there. Then add at the end of your document, make it the last thing.

Other Cool Things:
-Images (these don't really have tags, but declarations)
-Tables (tables are unique! They use columns and rows, thus we have "tr" and "td". TD is the columns (up and down) and TR is the rows (vertical). So when you refer to a column, you must first declare which row you're in using the tr. Check out the below example.)
example:

This is the first column! In the first row!	This is the second column! In the first row!
This is the first column! In the second row!	This is the second column! In the second row!

You see how the columns (td) are inside the rows? The tr tags will NEVER contain information, if you do use tables right. You should always use columns when you use rows, and tables. By the way, closing tags are needed for everything in tables.

MORE COOL STUFF
-Links (Site Name)
For links the href is the site you want to connect to therefore should be in URL format, alt stands for the text that shows when you hover the link, and Site Name is the text of the link.

-Bold (REQUIRES two tags "closing" and opening). My Text

-Underline (REQUIRES TWO tags "closing" and opening) My Text

-Setting individual fonts (REQUIRES TWO tags) MY TEXT

-paragraph text (this is a simple paragraph text, when you use these tags it skips two lines)
My text

-breaks (breaks only skip one line. the first tag I show you is the old version, and the new is the XHTML version)

By the way... YOU CAN NOT use a closing tag for breaks!!!

OTHER COOL STUFF WITH HTML
-add CSS
-add PHP, AJAX, PERL, PYTHON, MYSQL, ASP, ASP.NET, other server sides/databases
-dynamic!
-load external files (css, flash movies, java)
-javascript

CSS
If you choose to make a very inclined website... I suggest you use CSS, it makes your life that much easier! With everything defined for your site, you may want to make the CSS in a seperate CSS file, and load it into the HTML file through the head part of your HTML, through a code which I don't know off the top of my head, sorry!
You will need to declare pretty much everything though!
And everything that you want coded in your HTML file will need to be declared with an ID tag saying what code that scriplet should use.

My suggestions are: Learn HTML, XHTML, then maybe CSS!

Good Luck,
Alex

HINT! I suggest you buy Dreamweaver, if you're serious about this art!

You could either build a free website on Yahoo! Geocities or any other free web hosting site, either buy a domain and build a website. Either way, there are site building tools, so it's really not hard. You'll get the hang of it soon.

You are asking the question with a yahoo identity. So you can use http://www.yahoo.com username and create a website at http://www.geocities.com
Its simple. Its easy. And moreover you dont have to create one more account with any other site. The URL would be...
http://www.geocities.com/username
Simple
