How do I make my webpage once I purchased the domain name?

I want to put my photography onto a web page but I cannot figure out how to even get to a place to edit my page. I bought the domain name from godaddy.com. What is the next step for me? What programs do I need to make my own quality website? Where do I type html code to see it online as a webpage??

How do I make my webpage once I purchased the domain name?

well an easy way is

use Microsoft Frontpage

edit the HTML, make a webpage for urself

and then click file and Publish Web

then put the domain name u ve bought

and username and pass and it ll publish it for u

make sure ur webserver has microsoft frontpage extensions

another way is to redirect your URL to a server that you have, or an online server like www.webng.com or www.4000webs.com where u can upload the HTML code

if you wanna put pictures i would recommend you to join www.flickr.com for the highest quality upload. go pro (buy the pro version) so that u dont have any upload limits. and redirect your website to your flickr page

Other Replys:You need a webhost to host your site. Most free webhosts will let you use your own domains. You need to verify ownership and transfer the domain to the host site. A simple search of %26quot;Free webhosts%26quot; will give you tons of results, so take the time and find a host that will transfer the domain. If you purchased the domain with hosting, you should have a username and password for GoDaddy so you can access your host.

Basic HTML should be known by anyone trying to put up a web page. Any text editor like Windows Notepad can be used. If you don%26#039;t know any HTML and you want quality you sure won%26#039;t be using notepad.

A web page is a lot more than just typing in code, it%26#039;s knowing how to direct people to your site, how to keep them there, and how to make it all look like something they want to see.

Personally I would never recommend MS Front Page or any of the many free pieces of software out there. As a designer, I stick strictly to Dreamweaver or Text Pad for my sites.

Maybe even using a template from one of the many sites out there offering free web templates might be a way to start to learn how it all works.

Check the links below for some tutorials and a link to the download a trial version of Dreamweaver.

Best of luck to you.

Other Replys:I suppose that since it is a domain you need a FTP client to upload your files into your server. There are a bunch of FTP clients you could get for free. At first it%26#039;s tricky to understand but then is easy once you know the address of the server, password etc.

Then you need to have some knowledge of HTML. I learned from www.lissaexplains.com when I was a beginner years ago. You need to know how to add links, pictures, a backround, by using HTML, CSS, javascripts.

People will suggest you to use Dreamweaver etc, but those softwares are expensive. I learned to do it manually, even if it took some time to learn. With a simple HTML editor like EditPad Lite that lets you make changes into your code, save the file as a html file and view it on your browser, your fine.

Also you need to know how to design your own website by using a graphics editor like Photoshop, PaintShop Pro if you at least want to make a backround etc., but there are sites that offer free templates now.

The trick of this is to have a reference sites, that offers all the HTML, CSS, codes you need to add content to your website, so you can copy and paste it into a HTML editor such as EditPad Lite, DreamWeaver, FrontPage etc, and try to edit the HTML by manipulating numbers, letters etc, until it looks right into your website, and then upload it to your server.

WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) editors are going to save you a lot of time when making a website since they automatically do everything for you. You just click some buttons and that%26#039;s it, but they are going to cost you a lot of money.

It%26#039;s going to CONSUME lots of your time, but if you like it then is going to be fun. I was so geeky years ago..........ha.
