    Introduction:The 1-2-3 Steps of Web Development


    This page covers the Introductory 1-2-3 Steps of Web Development:

    1. plan (storyboard); 
    2. create linked web pages; and 
    3. publish online. 
    This tutorial assumes that the reader has spent a number of hours on the Internet and on its World Wide Web and is familiar with at least the Web's most basic conventions in navigating. These same steps will appear again in another web page as a subset of the more advanced page titled Comprehensive View of Web Development

    Effective web design is really no different than planning a paper, video, newsletter or slide show. First, you need to collect and organize your ideas. This means that the composers should have thought for a while about a topic or topics, recorded their ideas and those of others and determined the nature of the audience for their creations. Then the developer should choose a presentation format (such as a theater, newsletter or web site) and layout the sequence or sequences by which others will find their thoughts. 

    Second, the creator inserts the collected information into this planned structure and does so in an appropriate but attention grabbing manner for the intended audience.

    Third, composers move their creation to a medium or setting by which their audience can encounter their work. This public sharing might be thought of as publishing (newsletter), conferencing (a meeting to trade ideas), showing (video) or live performance (music). A web site, a collection of web pages, might include all four.

    Next, look in the left column of this web page. This column shows the sequence of steps to follow. Click on the next heading beginning with Planning, work through the numbered sub-headings under that heading, and then move down to the next.
