Creating Web Pages

These links present elements that must be addressed to create web pages that are meaningful, clear and concise, and easy to navigate. In this class you may use HTML and / or a Web Editor to create and maintain web pages. These sites proved you with tutorials to assist you in learning to develop web pages using HTML source code.  This is the stuff an Editor writes for you.  However, knowing how to program using HTML source code allows the designer to have more control over the product they produce.  Knowledge of source code is also helpful when debugging.  
The following links provide access to servers which provide web page space at no additional cost to you.  Commercial sites may require you to carry some advertising on your web page. Uploading your pages to a server using Fetch.
