Make your online dream come trueSetting Up Your Development Environment To create your web page, you will need a text editor and a web browser. Popular text editors for web development include Sublime Text, Visual Studio Code, and Atom. Once you have selected your text editor, open and create a new file and start writing your HTML code.
Step 3:
Writing HTML Code HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is the foundation of each webpage. It describes the structure and content of your web page through a series of elements and tags. Start by creating a new HTML document and adding the basic structure of a web page:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Your Page Title</title>
</head>
<body>
< !- - Your content goes here -->
</body>
</html>Within the <body> tag, you can add various elements such as titles, paragraphs, images, and links to tie in your web page issues. Here is an example of a simple web page with a title, paragraphs, and images:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>My First Webpage</title>
</head>
<body >
<h1> Welcome to My Website</h1>
<p>This is a simple web page created using iTechHubs.</p>
<img src="image.jpg" alt="Image Description">
</body>
</html>Step 4 :
Loading Your Web Page With CSS While HTML defines the layout of your web page, CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is used to design and organize the text. You can add CSS code inline in your HTML document or in a separate external stylesheet. Here is an example of how to add inline CSS to style the title and paragraph in our previous example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>My First Webpage</title>
<style>
h1 {
color : #333 ;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
}
p {
color: #666;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome to My Website</h1>
<p>This is a simple web page created using iTechHubs.</p>
<img src=" image.jpg" alt= "Image Description">
</body>
</html>Step 5:
Viewing and Testing Your Web Page Once you’ve written your HTML and CSS code, it’s time to view your web page and you try it out. Save your files and open the HTML document in your web browser to see how it looks. Make any necessary changes to the code until you are happy with the look and feel of your web page.
Step 6:
Publishing Your Web Page Once you’re happy with your web page, it’s time to publish it online for the world to see. You will need a web hosting service to host your files and make your web page accessible on the internet. Popular web hosting providers include GoDaddy, Bluehost, and HostGator. Follow the instructions provided by your hosting provider to upload your HTML and CSS files to your server and make your web page live. You can also make use of Github pages for a free hosting, if you just want to make your pages live on the internet.
