How to create/design a web page?
 

I am an Accounting Professional and would like to design a webpage for myself with the kind of services I can provide and my educational qualifications. Being an absolute novice at web designing I need some tips on how to go about designing my own. All suggestions are welcome, I am in no rush.

Thanks,

Well if you are looking to do your own website you will need some software you can use. My friend is a web designer and he uses macromedia dreamweaver to design his web pages. As well he occasionlly uses adobe photoshop and adobe illlustrator.

Start here: http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/...beginners.html

Read through it all. They'll get you started in no time. They use an excellent non-boring tone so you won't kill yourself with techno-babble. That's how I learned web design/development. Once you're done with that, go to:

And once you're done with that, go to:

I use a freebie called Arachnophilia, it comes in Easy, Moderate and Expert levels, (or words to that effect) and I find it simple to use. The fact that it's free is a bonus!

I use Frontpage to design my website...it is very user friendly, a windows based program. Then I upload my files through www.angelfire.com I found this to be one of the easiest sites. It is free also, and allows 10 MB i think....plenty for a personal website. Good luck. rmn518@excite.com

Heres a few places that give free websites, that you can personally design
www.freewebs.com www.freeservers.com www.angelfire.com www.freewebsites.com

If you need additional help, me and my friends are website designers and my friend owns his own hosting company which is very good.

I use adobe photoshop, flash mx sometimes, ulead gif animator pro (for animation); and for coding, i use microsoft's visual studio.net 2002.

If you are going open source//free, GIMP is a good graphic art program, and notepad always works. :)
