LESSON

There are several ways you can design or create your own website. There are
schools or online schools that offer courses on website development. They
teach you how to program using computer languages where you can create
and design web pages using HTML and CSS respectively. This may take time
but the skill that you’ll acquire is something that is pretty much useful
specially if you are serious about becoming a website developer.

But what if you do not have the time to undergo formal training for a website
development course and at the same time you are not interested in
programming at all?

This is where the WYSIWYG editor comes in. Whatever you write, insert, draw,
put, rearrange, and everything you do on a page is what the audience will see.
With the use of WYSIWYG editor, everyone can create their own website even
without prior programming skill. The best thing is it’s quick and simple to
use. WYSIWYG editor makes creating a website a fun thing to do.
There are WYSIWYG editors that need to be used with internet connection.
But for this particular lesson, you will be using the MS Word, which does not
require an internet connection in order to create web pages.

Steps to Web Page Creation Using MS Word


Step 1
There are two ways on how you can open or launch MS Word:
a. click on the screen’s shortcut button, or
b. select it from the list of programs under the start tab.
The click on Blank Document in the New Document task pane.

Step 2
Layout your web page as a word document. Arrange headings, paragraphs
and graphics the way you want them to appear on your page.

Step 3
Preview the document and correct any formatting that is wrong. Adjust the
margins to fit text into a single line, if necessary.

Step 4
Click on the home button at the top left of the document. Choose "save file
as". Choose the option Web Page (*.htm; *.html). Then type the file name that
you want for your document. And click save.

Note: Before saving the file, make sure that you have decided where
you wish to save your website file. You can either create a new web
directory or select from your existing directory.

Step 5
Build or create additional web pages that are connected to your main site.
Adjust any hyperlinks to reflect the correct page that they should open.

Note: Inserting hyperlink and images were previously discussed this


subject. Follow the principles and process that were explained.

Step 6
