Create a Free Website?

If you've visited the SERPS for that search phrase you realize what a joke it is. Yes, they are all FREE until you are ready to PUBLISH or put the pages online.

How are we different? We actually teach you to code your own web pages right on your desk top, lap top or tablet. Then you have the option of publishing with us or whoever else you choose.

SO, who's really FREE?

What Responsive Web Design Does

Web pages built using Responsive Web Design techniques will adjust to each different device width or resolution that visits. Below you see screenshots of the 402 template when viewed on 3 different devices.

Template #402 when viewed on a 1920 desk top with max-width set to 1440 pixels.

Template #402 when viewed on an Ipad Mini at 768 pixel width.

Template #402 when viewed on a Samsung Galaxy cell phone at 360 pixels.

 

Just to let you know, we rebuilt this entire website using the #402 template kit.

Our Tutorial Process

Beginners will start with a simple approach to learning:
Seeing + Doing = Learning

 

You will SEE HTML5 code:

<html>
<body>
<p>Paragraph code</p>
</body>
</html>

You will copy it and paste it into a web page you created.

You will SEE CSS code:

p {
font-family: arial, tahoma, serif;
font-size: 16px
}

You will copy it and paste it into a style sheet you created.

 

Then you will learn to look at the HTML document with a browser and see how HTML and CSS work together.
