Writing any webpage is simple and easy. All you need to know are the following tags. html, head ,title ,body, h1 , and p By using these tags, you can create any simple webpage. Like one I will show you.

First I will start by explaining each of the html tags. Second, I will show you how to place these tags, then finally how to check and proof read. Finally to place them into a micro-host.

I. The html tags

  1. html - This starts the html code and allows the rest of the codes to be recognized and viewable
  2. head - Heading: Allows other tags like title to be used
  3. title - Allows the title of the page to be seen at the top of the browser
  4. body - Allows text to be seen and codes such as h1 and p to be used
  5. h1 - Heading allows the the level of how large the text using this tag to be bigger or smaller
  6. p - Paragraph tag: Allows the actual text to be seen in the html page

Now before I go on, it's very important that you replace the "" that are surrounded by teach html tag with <>, otherwise the your page will not be seen to the public.

II. First, open up notepad. You can do this by Right clicking any open space on the desktop screen, go down to New then highlight new notepad file. A notepad file will appear, type it in whatever or click anywhere outside the file so you can click on it and the notepad window will come up

The first thing you have to do is to type "html"

Then type in head and then "title" and put in the title of the page. Then after you put in the title, immediately type /title then press enter and then type

Then type in "body", then press enter and type "h1", then type in "introduction" then type "/h1".

Then press enter and then type in "p", then "hello world", then "/p". Press enter and then type in /body".

Finally to close the html page, press enter and type in "/html"

Then go to file, save as, and when the save screen appears, type in the helloworld.html.

III. Now we are going to place this file into a micro-host. One of them is github, which has GitHub pages. If you have not created a account, you can do so at Github.com, which is a easy process to create and get started.

Now for the actual creation of the GitHub page:

  1. Create a repository. There will be a green icon on the top right counter of the screen. Click on that.
  2. Name your depository username.github.io, replacing username with your GitHub username. Make sure it's public, and allow github to initiate the page with a README file.
  3. At your new repository, create a "index.html" page. This can be done by clicking the plus icon next to the repository name and typing the name directly in the field that appears.
  4. On the resulting page, place the your hello world html code inside the text editor.
  5. Finally commit the index.html. At the bottom of the page, there is a text input area to add a description of your changes and a button to commit the file.

Congratulations, you've just built your first GitHub pages site. It can be viewed at https://username/github.io. It will take 5 to 10 minutes for the page to go live. And 30 seconds for each update to go live.

That's all for now. See you.
