Web Design - This page provides information to help create a usable Web site
Web Design Books - Prior to creating your site, pick up one of these design books to help increase your site's usability.
Web Site Creation and Management Tools - The first step in creating your own HCI Web site is to choose an editor. Here are a few of your options:
Web-based Add-ins - While you are creating your site, enhanced Web-based counters, bulletin boards, site maps, and site search engines are available free of charge. These services are hosted on the Internet and are linked with Html and Java scripts to your site. The following services are incorporated into the IT Study Guide:
Web Hosting - The second step in the process is to select a Web host to serve your site. Most students have the option of using their university's server. However, space is usually limited. A better option is to use space on your local ISP or one of the free hosting services on the Internet. If you are using FrontPage, try to pick a service that supports FrontPage server extensions. (Read about our experiences with Crosswinds, Geocities, and Addr.com)
FTP - The third step, once you have your page designed and a place to host it, is to transfer your files to the hosting server. Windows 98, FrontPage, and the other Web site creation tools have the ability to publish or transfer files to a host. However, when they don't work (a common occurrence), a dedicated FTP program is the most reliable means of updating your Web site.
Site Promotion - After your site is published to the Internet and accessible to visitors, it is time to promote it with the multitude of search engines. Site Add is a free service that submits your site to 15 different search engines.
