Tips
for Making Better Web Pages
|
| Look at the HTML
source code of any page that you like. |
| Get feedback by
making a link with your email address. Always listen to the feedback. This
will improve your Web Pages. |
| Make your pages
compatible to a variety of browsers, graphical browsers, text-only browsers,
text-to-speech or braille devices, or other devices. |
| When you use the
<img> tag to display a picture use the alt attribute which defines
text to show to non graphical users |
| When you use the
<img> tag also include the width and height attributes.
This lets your browser display the rest of the page without waiting for
the image to download. Your Web Pages will load much faster. |
| Write HTML source
code that is easy to read. You will have to edit it, and some people would
like to understand it. |
| If you are not
familiar with HTML, try programs like Netscape’s Composer of Microsoft’s
FrontPage Express. They are free for download. |
| Register you Web
Page to search engines. |
| Put comments that
won’t display on the Web Page in your HTML source code if you want people
to know why are you using that source code. |
| If you have form
on your Web Page, don’t use them for secret data, since the user can always
view the source code. |
| Encrypt your HTML
files if you don’t want people to be able to wee you HTML source code.
If you encrypt your HTML files you can use form for secret data. |
| Don’t put lots
of images on your Web Pages. Your Web Pages will download very slow. |
