Editorial Review: Product Description: The Web is the most sophisticated, most open, and simplest publishing medium ever created, an endless set of criss-crossing interconnections between an ever-growing number of points, and a community in the truest sense of the word. Your Web page can be your platform to say or show whatever you want to the millions of people with access to the global Internet. You can talk about yourself or your business. You can publish a short story or a collection of jokes. You can show pictures of your dog or of your company’s latest product. Your own imagination is the only limit to what you can put on the Web. If you've used the Web before and you're now ready to step out into the big wide online world with your own page, Creating Web Pages For Dummies, 6th Edition, is the place where you can nudge your wishes into reality. Without any previous experience (or painful technical instructions), you can get on track to

Amazon.com Review: Ideal for novices, Creating Web Pages for Dummies starts off with discussion of some key design topics and shows the way to publishing well designed Web sites. The authors have you writing HTML and getting a feel for the basic process by the third chapter. Once you're hooked, they show you how to build a home page in a single day and offer advice on how to get online with an Internet Service Provider (ISP). The book gradually gets more serious in scope, presenting sites for business use and implementing graphics and multimedia. It shows you how easy it is to publish photos, to implement sound and video clips, and introduces hot technologies like Java, ActiveX and XML. Finally, the guide introduces you to various authoring tools, browsers, and the special considerations of publishing for WebTV. In the usual Dummies style, the author offers 10 dos and 10 don'ts for Web publishing. The book wraps up with appendices of ISPs, a guide to HTML tags, and a CD-ROM with tools and an excellent set of links for useful Web resources. --Stephen W. Plain Average Rating:
 Rating:  - At Least The Title Is Right!This was my first "for Dummies" book purchase and it will be the last (unfortunately, I also purchased "Web Sites for Dummies" at the same time. A How-To book this not....you get no step-by-step instructions, what you do get is a lot of information that is generally available on the internet with a dose of new-age you can do anything you want if you try.........well, at least the title is right..........only a DUMMY would buy this book. Rating:  - This is for someone who does not want to purchase any software over 20 bucks. It leans heavily on Yahoo.I was hoping for something that would help me get started on building my own site. This book is for someone who just wants any site, and is looking for someone else to do for them. Rating:  - Great reference bookThanks for the quick responce in the product, received what I needed for less Rating: - A Good Place to StartThis is a great book for the person just getting started in thinking about putting up a web site. The basic concept here is to use a fairly minimal amount of HTML, which he teaches you, and then one of the hosting services such as GeoCities, Google or AOL to get your site up and running. All in all, he presents an excellent description of what you need to think about, what technologies you need to understand, and the various tools that are available to assist in the construction of ...

I wanted to know more about hosting services and costs, etc. Then found another title on here called "The Complete Web Hosting Kit Pro." This is a complete kit that lets you host your web site on your own PC for free. Comes with everything you need... instructions and software to host your site on your PC at home or at work. I recommend both this book and the web hosting kit. |
