To make your website on your own computer, you need to know HTML. All the web pages on the Internet, are fundamentally made up of HTML. To understand what I mean, go to any page of any website and go to “View > Source” in Internet Explorer or “View > Page Source” in Mozilla Firefox. (You can find “View” along with “File” “Edit” and all those other options on the top of your browser window.) A new window will open and what you will see is a confusing combination of words and brackets and a whole lot of other stuff! This is the HTML of the page.

 Now, HTML is basically a language. If you know programming languages like C, C++, VB etc. then HTML will be very very easy for you. HTML, is one of the easiest programming languages. In fact HTML is not even a programming language.

 HTML is a very simple “markup” language. This means that HTML decides how the different parts of the web page will “look”. HTML is all about how everything “looks”. For example, if I want this text to look bold. Then I can control how this text looks with HTML.
