the objective of doing webpage design?
370804
An objective of a website or a web site designer is to attract potential clients to the site and have them return. Perhaps this is done by ease of navigation to the information, the source of the information or the rarity of the subject matter.

This may seem like as bit of a non-answer but it is not intended as such.\n\nYou are on the internet, just look at the designs you really like and take ideas from them.\nLearn how each thing is (or can) be made to appear in whatever way.\nEvery design is free, it is just a case of working out how the original designer/devloper made it happen.\n\nAfter a while you will even end up having three or four ways of producing each look (from my own experience) and very often you will see the way it has been done on somebody's site and think to yourself that you would code it differently to achieve the same look.\n\nA prime example is a navigation list on the left of the page . This can be done by putting it as the first piece on a web page or you can put it as the last and style it to appear at the top left. There are times when you may choose one solution over another.\n\nJust take a peek around and study some CSS.

anyone can create a website. Depending on how much time you have to devote to the website, will depend on how ascetically pleasing to the eye the web site is. \nUnless you are using a program such as front page, you will have to have a knowledge of at least HTML, if you don't have this knowledge, there are several good websites available to help you.  One such website is http://www.htmlgoodies.com.   You can start there with the html tutorials and proceed from there. \nAs far as hosting the web site, personal opinion would be to develop the site, before pricing the hosting plan.  Depending on how long it actually takes you to create the site and then what design elements you have chosen to incorporate will make choosing the hosting plan easier. Please let us know how it goes.

One good reason is to provide information to other people. You can basically do anything you want on your page. So, if you decide to create or acquire info that may be of some use to other users, this could be a plus. For example, you could have information on your page that shows how to setup a 360 page, since many people ask this question. When somebody asks this question in !Answers, you could paste your link in the Answer box.\nSetting it up is very easy really. All you need to do is follow Yahoo's instructions - 1 step at a time and before you know it, presto! (:

The reason is the way the site is coded.  The only text on your page is: \n\nOverview of Business\nFrank Eckblom\ntakes you to find free Treasures\nof the Mother Lode\n\nSearch engines have nothing to find.  \n\nThat is one of the reasons that good web development is so important.  \n\nIf you want your webpage to be your homepage, select "tools > Internet Options" and list it as your default home page.

The two most important things to include in an "About Us" page on your website is 1) your mission statement, and 2) your unique selling point.\n\nWhile you do need information telling your readers who you are and what you do, the most important information to convey is what sets you apart from your competition. Why should people do business with you instead of the next guy? You have to have a unique selling point to compete and thrive in a capitalist economy. There's too much competition out there.\n\nFind a unique selling point, and make that the biggest focus of your web page.\n\nBrandon O'Dell\nO'Dell Consulting\nRestaurants / Retail / Bars\nhttp://www.bodellconsulting.com

1) First determine the objective of your website...whether its going to be a online photo album or a page about you and your family or a page about your passions say sports ( :) )...\n2) Once you decide what you want to make it on decide what all you are going to put up\n3) Once you are sure about what all you are going to put up (eg what pics,what text ..what scripts will you be using and all)..search for a good free web host which supports these features (Features such as a ftp client which will allow you to upload your pics,supports the kind of scripting you want like flash,javascript,cgi etc..)\n\nsome good ones are geocties.com,lycos.com,\nbravenet.com,pages.google.com( you will need a gmail id for google pages )\n\n4) Lot of these free web hosts provide website builders which have predefined templates to allow you create a decent website easily and quickly..if you are satisfied with that..well and good..but if you want some more customization then I suggest you get a free WYSIWYG HTML editor such as NVU ..(if you have microsoft frontpage already well and good..its quite good)..\n\n5) Using the editor you can easily create a website ..learning a bit of HTML to improve the site appearance wont harm anything..\n6) If you really want to spice up your website then i suggest you can implement some javascript ...you can learn it and do it or download the scripts from the net and put it on your site..here are some sites which have a lot of good scripts with various functionalities\n\n1) http://www.javascriptkit.com/\n2) http://www.a1javascripts.com/\n3)http://www.java-scripts.net/\n\n4) http://www.javafile.com/\n\n\nsome good html tutorials for your reference are \n\nhttp://www.davesite.com/webstation/html/\nhttp://www.cmis.brighton.ac.uk/~mas/mas/courses/html/html.html\nhttp://founderweb.com/html_tutorial/\nhttp://www.w3schools.com/html/html_examples.asp\n\nHappy building

I am afraid that your two part question has an easy answer and a hard one.\n\nIn order to set up a web page you need three things:\n\n- HTML coding to determine what information is on your webpage and what it looks like.\n- A "Web Host" to take those files and place them on a "web server" that is accessable to the internet.\n- A URL to tell the world how to get to your newly set up server.\n\nThe HTML coding piece can be done many different ways.  You can choose to purchase or download a free editing application that will let you design your own page from scratch or from some pre-designed templates that come with the software.  Some of the more popular examples of these programs are Microsoft FrontPage and Macromedia (now Adobe) Dreamweaver.  Using these tools does take some learning curve, but as a rule they are not difficult to master.\n\nAn alternative to using software is to utilize a service like Yahoo or NetFirms who offer "Fill in the blank" web design.  These providers allow you to pick a look and feel and simply fill in the boxes as to what information you want to provide.  Often the come bundled with a hosting package and URL which we are about to discuss.\n\nThe second step is to select a webhost.  A Google or Yahoo search on web host will yield hundred of results.  It is best to look for a provider that has been around for some time, has a recognizable brand name and easy access to quality customer support.  A web host will typically charge you a monthly fee ranging anywhere from $8-$800 dollars a month for your site based on complexity and number of visitors (bandwidth) you use up.\n\nFinally you need to obtain a URL (Uniform Resource Locator).  A URL is your address on the internet and tells people how to find you.  Typcially you can purchase a custom URL for use (ie - Mywonderfullwebsite.com) or you can use a longer name with your hosting provider (ie - www.webhostingcompany.com/mywonderfullwebsite).  If you want people to visit your site you should try to pick a URL that is short and easy to remember.\n\nMany web providers bundle all the above items into a single package and remove the complexity from the process for you.\n\nFinally you ask how to get people to look at it ?  That comes down to marketing.  Get the word out by contact webmasters of simmilar sites and asking them to link to your site, visit the major search engines and find the "submit" link where you can enter in your new URL for their review, or start reading up on any of the many many books / websites dedicated to search engines and internet marketing.\n\nGood Luck !

you are nowhere near ready for such a project.\n\nfirst learn html & css.\n\nthen learn the name of  a good programmer to partner with. Lots of great programmers can't do graphic design. or great layout!

from a graphic designers perspective....the layout is not good. it does not flow well. your eye does not know where to look. a design or a web page needs to have structure. don't get me wrong, the page is somewhat appealing but it needs help.\n\nat first glance i don't even know what the site is. if i were to happen accross it i would move quickly past it and i would not re-visit it. to fix this problem the site designer needs to ad some balance. there is too much going on.

I recently was approached by a friend of a friend to produce them a modelling website.  I said yes.\n\nWhat i didn't tell them was i had never done a web-page before!!  Well I downloaded a program called coffeecup that gives you fairly clean code (compared to Frontpage), and used its visual editor to start.  I then looked at the code it had produced to see what was going on.  After also looking up different HTML tags and how to do tables and such, it was much easier and i was now able to write HTML without using the visual editor.\n\nI then had to tackle PHP to do a few bits.  I used these websites to get what i wanted.\n\nhttp://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/index.phtml/fid/51\nhttp://www.zend.com/php/index.php\nhttp://www.devtek.org/tutorials/image_gallery.php\nhttp://www.webdeveloper.com/\n\nAnyway i went from knowing nothing to producing a website, with changing images, a web based contact form and a shopping cart (short list) in about 2 weeks of on and off looking at it after work.\n\nIt is more than possible to learn to do web design in short amounts of time.  Obviously for more complex features it just takes longer, but i have found all information available on the web that i need.  Certainly no need for a 10,000 course.  Also simply look at the source for websites to see what others are doing.\n\nGet a project to work on, research the web and do it!\n\nGood luck and enjoy.\n\nFor my small triumph, visit http://www.seenmodels.com
