HTML and CSS Design
HTML is the backbone of the Internet. Modern web design is a hodgepodge of many different technologies, languages, and protocols, and HTML is the framework which ties it all together.
All web pages contain some HTML, which stands for HyperText Markup Language. This means that text can be "marked up" with angle brackets to signify various structural semantics such as links (<a href>), paragraphs (<p>), headings of various hierarchies (<h1>, <h2>, <h3>, etc.), and lists (<ul>). Perhaps the most important of these is the link, which is what makes the Internet what it is, and where the name HyperText originally came from.
With HTML, you can also embed images and objects, and load other languages like:
- JavaScript, which enhances the behavior of HTML webpages.
- Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), which separate the formatting, or "style," from the content itself. This allows the designer much more flexibility in terms of design and implementation.
- PHP, which allows for complex interactions with a database and "pre-processes" the HTML to make it dynamic and completely customized for different users.
HTML can be hand-coded with a simple text editor such as Notepad or created with a more advanced WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor such as Dreamweaver.
Once a website has been designed, the next step is to increase the traffic to your site through Search Engine Optimization and Marketing.
