Assuming you have someplace to host your page, all you need is a text editor (such as Notepad) and a method to upload the content (such as an FTP client like the one built into Internet Explorer). ... ... Open a new document in your text editor, enter the HTML code (a great tutorial can be found at http://www.w3schools.org), and save the document with the filename of your choice and a ".htm" or ".html" extension. ... ... Be careful about the use of spaces and captial letters in your filename, as some Web servers are picky. I'd recommend you keep the name as short and sweet as possible (e.g., "welcome.htm"). ... ... Also, be sure that the text editor does not append a ".txt" extension to your filename. ... ... Once you have the page ready to upload, log into your Web server using your FTP client (the address, username, and password will be provided by your hosting company), and transfer the file up to the server. ... ...

First you have to find a site to host your web page. I use bravenet.com. Most webhosts offer a free subscription but you can also purchase a domain name which will allow you to have a .com instead of using the webhost's address. ... ...

Most of the time you can build your page offline using tools such as Microsoft Frontpage or Dreamweaver and upload it via ftp. If you can't use ftp or you don't have a wep page editor you can also build it using the tools provided by the web host. Don't worry if you don't know html. Most of the time you won't have to use it. It's just good to know incase you need to make quick changes or insert something that the editor doesn't allow. Once you have your web page made, you may consider making more pages to make your site bigger.
