Building a Web Page is the process of putting together all the text, graphics, forms and links that will appear on the screen, along with any background music that will play when a net surfer comes to your site. A web page is what appears on the screen in a complete download, even if you must scroll down to see all of it. Text , such as this text, can be input in the usual way, using the keyboard or it can be copied from another computer file, a word processor document for example. Graphics , which include photographs, drawings and logos can be scanned from photographs or downloaded from a digital camera. These also can be copied from other computer files or created from scratch by our own graphic artist.
Links are what people click on to go to other pages or even to other sites.
Text as well as graphics can be set up as links. Music , which is optional, can be added to play in the background of a web page. To Host the Site simply means to load the pages onto a host computer that is capable of sending them to net surfers. A Domain Name identifies your site and is what a net surfer types into his browser to go to a particular web site. However usually you would click on a link with a 'friendly' name, which is then translated into a domain name by your computer.
