Tips for Making a Web Page:

Getting Started Simply Using M.S. Word

 

 

 

·        Go to yahoo.com and sign up for free e-mail which allows you to use free web space

 

·        Save home page as index.html

o      Make sure that you save all files in the same folder

o      Save them all as .html with the exception of photos

o      Save them all as lower case file names

·        When you want to make a link: go to Insert Hyperlink

·        Then, create new document

·        Make sure you change the title to your websites; you may not necessarily want the title to be the filename

·        Remove all references to your computer in the file name

o      E.g. My Documents/My Web

·        Log in at www.geocities.com or www.geocities.yahoo.com

o      Click on Upload files

·        In order to make a hyperlink to a webpage, follow the same steps as before, but now browse for web page (instead of create new document)

·        Everything should be linked off the index.html page

o      This is your main page

·        Check all your links once everything is uploaded

·        Ensure that picture files also have the references to your computer in the file name removed

·        Check all your links on a different computer to ensure that your website is working and the links are working properly
