How to plan a small website (purpose, audience, number of pages, content, layout), build a page with text, images, a logo and navigation, add hyperlinks to a page, a location, an email address and a file, and evaluate it before publishing.
5 narrated scenes. Press play, listen and read along — the points appear as they are explained. Use ‹ Prev / Next › or the scene bar to jump to any scene.
A good web page is planned on paper first. The plan decides what goes on each page, who it is for, and how visitors will move around.
Narration uses your device’s built-in voice. No sound? Switch to “Captions only” — the captions advance on their own.
Pull the page apart into its areas and follow the four kinds of hyperlink.
Copy these into your notebook in your own words — that is how they stick.
Reason, audience, ≤ 3 pages, content, layout.
Logo, heading, navigation area, content area, consistent style.
Word processor or free online web service; no HTML needed.
Picture Format ▸ Wrap Text lets words flow around an image.
Another page, location in the page, email address, user-created file.
Contains links to the other pages.
Test links, check accuracy/currency, use a test audience.
