What steps do you need to make a web page?

Website design contains a lot of content. Generally divided into two aspects:

On the one hand, it is the design of the website itself, such as text typesetting, picture making, graphic design, three-dimensional design, static silent graphics and text, dynamic audio and video, etc.

On the other hand, it is the extension design of the website, including the positioning of the website theme and browsing groups, intelligent interaction, production planning, image packaging, publicity and marketing, etc.

These two aspects complement each other (it feels a bit like writing a dialectical paper), and with the rapid development of network technology, it is impossible to put forward an absolutely correct and authoritative design idea, and it is difficult to summarize it in one article. Therefore, according to the idea of building a website, I will sort out my experience in website design and production in recent years into a series of "lectures" to tell you (note: I won't talk about a certain technology or production skills in detail. The following is a rough outline:

1. Find the theme and name of your website.

19. Suggestions for beginners of website design

The above is the outline of this series of articles, which will change according to the actual writing situation. Before we begin, let's be clear about several premises:

Website design and website production. We say website "design" instead of website "production". The difference between the two is that design is a process of thinking, while production is only the result of expressing thinking. A successful website needs an excellent design first, and then an excellent production. Design is the core and soul of a website, and there are many ways for the same design.

2. The so-called "website" refers to a practical website with a clear theme and a clear purpose, excluding websites with pure expressions or pure words.

In the article, you can give examples or comment on some specific websites.

Find the theme and name of your website.

When designing a website, the first problem to be solved is to locate the theme of the website.

The theme is the theme of your website. The topics of websites on the Internet are varied and dazzling. As long as you can think, you can do it. The following are the top ten themes of 100 famous websites in the United States in 1999, which are judged by PCMagazine, and have certain reference value for us.

Category 1: online job hunting

Category 2: Online Chat/Instant Messaging /ICQ

Category 3: Online communities/discussions/mailing lists

Category 4: Computer Technology

Category 5: Web page/website development

Category VI: Entertainment websites

Category 7: Travel

Category 8: Reference/Information

Category 9: Family/Education

Category 10: Life/Fashion

Each category can be further subdivided, such as entertainment, sports/movies/music, and music can be divided into MP3, VQF and Ra according to the format, and classical, modern and rock according to the form of expression. These are just the most common topics, and there are many professional, alternative and unique topics to choose from, such as traditional Chinese medicine, tropical fish and weather forecast. At the same time, the connection and cross-combination of various themes can produce new themes, such as tourism forum (tourism+discussion) and classic goal kicking (football+film and television). In this way, there can be thousands of themes, so there will be no repetition of themes and it will be difficult to choose.

For the choice of theme, my suggestion is:

1. The theme should be small and precise. The positioning should be small and the content should be refined. If you want to make an all-inclusive website and put all the wonderful things on it, it will often backfire, giving people a feeling that everything is superficial without theme and characteristics, because you can't have so much energy to maintain it. The biggest feature of the network is new and fast. At present, the most popular personal homepage is updated every day or even every few hours. The latest survey results also show that "theme stations" on the Internet are more popular than "whole stations", just like specialty stores and department stores. If I need to buy something, I will definitely choose a specialty store. For another example, one of my netizens KK wants to be a literary subject, but literature also includes many contents, including novels, poems and essays; There are science fiction, martial arts and reasoning; I have carefully understood his major and the main content he wants to provide. Finally, I positioned the theme on the network literature, deleted some original irrelevant literary works, and concentrated on expanding and sorting out the network literary works. After the website went online, it was quickly loved by everyone.

2. The theme had better be what you are good at or like. For example, if you are good at programming, you can set up a website for programming enthusiasts; Interested in football, you can report the latest war situation, star dynamics and so on. In this way, when making, you won't feel bored or at a loss. Interest is the motivation to make a website. Without enthusiasm, it is difficult to design excellent works.

3. Don't overdo it or aim too high. "Too much" refers to the theme that can be seen everywhere and everyone has; Such as software download, free information. "Aim too high" means that there are already excellent and well-known sites in this subject, and it is difficult for you to surpass them. Unless you make up your mind to compete and surpass, remember that the internet is only the first, and people often only remember the best websites, and the second and third impressions will be much shallower.

Well, if you have a brilliant idea, let's start naming the website. You may think that naming has nothing to do with website design. In fact, the website name is also a part of the website design, which is a key element. You see, "computer room" and "computer room" are obviously the latter simple; "Midi Paradise" and "Midi Paradise" are obviously the latter. Children's World and China Kindergarten are obviously the latter. We all know the Chinese name of PIIICUP "Pentium". If it were "running", it might not be as hot as it is today:). As in real life, whether the website name is honest, loud and easy to remember has a great influence on the image and promotion of the website. The general suggestions are:

1. The name should be correct. This "righteousness" is what I said myself. In fact, it means to be legal, reasonable and affectionate. You can't use reactionary, pornographic, superstitious or threatening social security.

2. The name should be easy to remember. According to the characteristics of Chinese website visitors, it is best to use Chinese names for website names, rather than English or mixed Chinese and English names. For example: beyondstudio and Beyond Studio, the latter is more friendly and memorable. In addition, the number of words in the name of the website should be controlled within six words (preferably four words), such as "XX Pavilion" and "XX Design Room", and four words can be used in idioms, such as "catch the whole thing". There is another advantage of fewer words. Generally, the small logo size of friendship links is 88X3 1, while the width of six words is about 78, which is suitable for link typesetting of other sites.

3. The name should be distinctive. A plain name is acceptable. If it can reflect certain connotation and give tourists more visual impact and spatial imagination, it is the top grade. Here are a few names that everyone thinks are very good: music avant-garde, net pottery bar and the sound of nature. While reflecting the theme of the website, it can point out the characteristics.

In a word, locating the theme and name is the first step and an important part of designing a website. If you can find a satisfactory name, it is worthwhile to spend a day looking it up in the dictionary.

Web page making involves many tools. The first is the web page making tool. At present, most netizens choose WYSIWYG editing tools, among which Dreamweaver and Frontpage are the best. If you are a beginner, Frontpage2000 is the first choice. In addition, there are image editing tools, such as Photoshop and Photoimpact. Animation tools, such as Flash, Cool3d, GifAnimator, etc. There are also special tools for web pages, such as vivid and colorful.

★★★★★★ There are mainly the following tools for making web pages.

Frontpage: the tools that come with Office. Simple operation, practical and easy to learn. Its function is not so good. I don't like it very much.

Dreamweaver: This is one of the Three Musketeers on the Web. It is a special tool for making web pages, which can automatically generate the code of web pages. Simple interface and powerful practical functions are the first choice for ordinary web page makers. Recommended for beginners.

Another tool is code editing tools, such as writing board, EditPlus and so on. These tools are mainly used to edit dynamic web pages such as asp.

In addition, there are some network programming tools, such as javascript and java editor.

Web production is also a hot industry. To really make a good website, you must also have good design skills. So I have to learn a lot of edge software, such as photoshop and flash.

Large websites often need the support of databases, so it is necessary to understand databases. Sql, Oracle Bone Inscriptions, etc.

In short, if you can make a web page and make a website independently, don't think about eating. Go out for a stroll!
