(Tutorial)

I Build Awesome Experiences from the Ground Up.

WHAT I DO?

I am a I.T Students turned web developer and web designer.

I was always interested in computers, but had no idea you could have a job programming them. As a Designer i taught myself tutorials and CSS, but i really learned how to program at AMA Computer College and different Hacking Groups.

Advice For Aspiring Web Developers

Do not let the "fear of looking like an idiot" get in the way of asking questions or learning new things.Programming is not so different from writing a great paper or learning a foreign language. The biggest barrier to entry is very conceptual. When you approach programming with an intense willingness to learn, amazing things will happen.

WEB DESIGN TERMINOLOGY

Network - is defined as several computer connected together with purpose of sharing resource including data, information and hardware.

Internet - is a worldwide collection of computers connected to one another sharing wired or wireless including all computers that we use at home, in schools, offices and many other places.

World Wide Web - is a collection of resources and information interconnected via the internet.

Web page - is a formatted page within a website that may contain text, graphics, video and multimedia. This page can be viewed and explored on the internet by the use of program called Web browser.

Splash page - may precede the home page. It usually contains a multimedia which is designed to be attractive and intriguing in order to create curiosity and invite anyone to see its contents.


HISTORY OF THE INTERNET

The internet has its history anchored on the project started by the United states Government called DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) an agnecy of UD Department of Defense for the development of new technology for military use which was established in 1958. The original name of this agency was simply APRA (Advanced Research Projects Agency) then was renamed to DARPA. The Agency as then headed by J.C.R Licklider in 1962, he installed three computer network terminals, one for the University of California, Berkeley for the Project Genie, one for system Development Corporation in santa, Monica, USA and one at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) for time sharing system projects for advanced computer and networking research. The networking technology led to the development of what we call "Packet Switching", a network communication method that splits the data in chunks, called packets, then reassembled in the correct order at its destination.

The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) developed the packet switching network standards in 1976 following the research from DARPA called the X.25 CompuServe using the X.25 standard became the first company to offer electronic mail for personal computer users. Several network mnethods ere developed and there was need to unify all of them. Vinton Cerf of Stanford University was recruited by Robert E. Kahn of DARPA to work a solution to this problem. Cerf together with other scientist formulated a common internetwrok protocol, which eventually became the TCP/IP protocol, the only approved standard protocol on the ARPANET.

Robert E. Kahn, Vinton Cerf, Lawrence Roberts and Leonard Kleinrock recieved the Drapper prize award in 2001 "for the development of the internet". Draper prize is the annual ward given by National Academy of Engineering.


HISTORY OF THE WORLD WIDE WEB

Sir Tim Berners-Lee is a British computer scientist. He was born in London, and his parents were early computer scientists, working on one of the earliest computers. Growing up, Sir Tim was interested in trains and had a model railway in his bedroom. He recalls: “I made some electronic gadgets to control the trains. Then I ended up getting more interested in electronics than trains. Later on, when I was in college I made a computer out of an old television set.” After graduating from Oxford University, Berners-Lee became a software engineer at CERN, the large particle physics laboratory near Geneva, Switzerland. Scientists come from all over the world to use its accelerators, but Sir Tim noticed that they were having difficulty sharing information. “In those days, there was different information on different computers, but you had to log on to different computers to get at it. Also, sometimes you had to learn a different program on each computer. Often it was just easier to go and ask people when they were having coffee…”, Tim says. Tim thought he saw a way to solve this problem – one that he could see could also have much broader applications. Already, millions of computers were being connected together through the fast-developing Internet and Berners-Lee realised they could share information by exploiting an emerging technology called hypertext. In March 1989, Tim laid out his vision for what would become the Web in a document called “Information Management: A Proposal”. Believe it or not, Tim’s initial proposal was not immediately accepted. In fact, his boss at the time, Mike Sendall, noted the words “Vague but exciting” on the cover. The Web was never an official CERN project, but Mike managed to give Tim time to work on it in September 1990. He began work using a NeXT computer, one of Steve Jobs’ early products.


ACCESSING THE WEB

The most common means of accessing the internet is through the use of telephone lines. They Existed before computer communications and are widely available worldwide. Although its original intent was for voice Communication, it has now become a vital part of computer communications. Other methods of internet connectivity have introduce to complement the telephone lines. Some examples are; by the use of cables and wireless communications.

Dial-Up Connection - is connecting to the internet using the telephone lines. The method of connection is done like making a cal over the telephone line with the aid of modem (modulator-demodulator).

DSL - or digital subscriber line is also a method of connecting to the internet using the telephone line but provides both data and voice communication, meaning you can use it both to talk and transmit data at the same time unlike the dial-up connection. DSL data trasmission is several times faster and is more reliable compared to the dial-up connection.

Cable Internet - is online connection to the web by the use of cable lines already used by cable television (TV) providers. Cables line can carry TV and data signals faster since they are dedicated line originally intended for TV.

Wireless internet - is internet connection provided by wireless service providers (WSP) wherein wireless enabled computers and gadgets can access to.

Wireless internet - is the internet using permanent and continuos connection using a "dedicated line" which is of reliable and stable signal for very important internet applications.


WEB BROWSERS

A web site Must be tested and viewed using the broser that are commonly used by users worldwide taht way you will be assured that yuor web site will work in the majority of available brosers out there. This test is important because not all brosers treat some codes the same way. Each broser has its on set of default setting for fonts, background color and so on and the user may also want to modify these setting to thier particular needs or viewing preferences.


WEB BROWSER ELEMENTS

BASIC WEB DESIGN PRINCIPLES

Balance - this concept has something to do with symmetrical andasymmetrical arrangements of the texts and objects of the web page. Symmetrical design suggest traditional , conncervative professional and traditional yet simple mood or atmosphere. Unbalanced or asymmytrical design in common many web sites denotes or conveys energy, modern style and youthfulness.

Proximity - is the replacement of elements with logical relationship close to each other. Proper arrangement of related elements would facilitate user interaction and understanding of the web site.

White Spaces - are literacy blank spaces which are placed around web page elements which allow readability of important text and draw attention to images on the web site.

Contrast - is a way to diffenrentiate the elements of the web page. Contrast is achieve by varying the sizes, character and color of the elements, to arrange them according to which needs to be emphasized and which ones support.

Focus - is the element in the web site which should get the attention of the viewer first.

Unity - is the sense pf agreement and harmony of all the elements of the web site.

Alignment - is the proper arrangement and positioning of the elements of the website.


ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF WEB CONTENTS

  • Accuracy

  • Readability

  • Understandable

  • Concise

  • Ethical and legal


  • PLANNING YOUR WEB SITE

    Evaluate your Content Copy:
    The first thing to do when creating your new website is to evaluate your current copy. If this is your first website, look for materials like existing brochures to establish what content is already available. Ask yourself three questions.

  • Is the content correct or still accurate?

  • Is anything missing?

  • Is it useful to my readers?

  • Making sure things are correct will help guarantee you have no outdated pricing or incorrect information.

  • Your business has most likely changed since you first created your site, and you may need to include additional services. Defining a clear and specific purpose for each piece of content will help ensure that you are giving people something of value to read. (See the resource section at the end of the article for a spreadsheet that can help in this process.)

    Determine Your Target Audience:
    Before deciding on what content to include on your site, establish who constitutes your website’s target audience. Understanding, or at least identifying, who you are speaking to will help provide clarity as you plan the remainder of your content. This will also allow you to gauge whether or not information is clear or even necessary. It may help to develop primary, secondary, and even tertiary audiences to make sure that you take into account all of your visitors and their individual needs.

    Use Sitemaps as Copy Blueprints:
    If you compare creating a website to building a house, your sitemap is like the architect’s blueprint. Without it, you might plan a house that doesn’t have enough bathrooms or closets. There are many different programs and software suites designed to organize the information. You can use a tool like Microsoft Word’s Organization Chart function or, for more detailed plans, the free cross-platform tool XMind.

    Collaborate with Others:
    Even if you are the sole person in a business, you will want to include others in the review and editing process to ensure your copy is grammatically correct and that it makes sense to others. If you work in an organization that requires other stakeholders to weigh in or contribute, there are a variety of methods that can help ease this pain. Try to avoid using one single file for all of your content, as this doesn’t allow for easy collaboration.

    Use Storytelling Versus ‘Storyselling’:
    You may feel that your website is a chance to “tell your story.” Instead, it should tell the stories of others who have benefitted from using your products or services. Avoid going on and on about how wonderful your business is. Instead, provide evidence or results. Use language that is familiar to your target audience, not industry-specific terminology. Appeal to their problems by explaining your product or service as a solution. Provide clear benefits in easy-to-read bullets instead of verbose paragraphs. Making your content user-centered meets users’ needs and tells their story instead of just yours.

    Write for Humans and Search Engines:
    For those of you who know the importance of writing your copy for SEO, don’t become too focused on injecting your key search terms so many times that the content becomes unreadable. By naturally including your terms throughout the copy on the site, you ensure that once someone gets there, you don’t sound like a robot. Also, by using “semantic keywords” you can develop a variety of words that provide the same meaning around your core keywords. If you are a divorce lawyer, for example, don’t say “divorce lawyer” every few words. Instead, use related terms like “family law” or “child custody.” This will help vary your content while allowing you to keep words that support your search efforts.

    Make the Copy Action Oriented:
    Encourage people to take action once they read your copy. Whether you want them to call you, message you for more information, or buy a product online, tell them what their next step is at the end of your copy. Providing an email address or links to your contact page gives them an easy action to take while your business is still top of mind.

    Give the Copy Visual Appeal:
    Break up your text up with supporting images, charts, or illustrations. Also, because most people will not read all of your copy but will scan through instead, separate it using larger pull quotes or testimonials, as well as bulleted lists. In addition, keep your paragraphs short and use sub-headings to divide sections. Choosing the correct typeface plays a significant role in your copy’s legibility. Most web designers recommend using a sans-serif typeface for body copy and a slightly larger serif for headlines. Use of these techniques can help ensure that your copy looks as good as it is useful.

    Set Deadlines:
    Although it’s easier than ever to edit your own website copy with a content management system like WordPress, this can be the enemy of completing and launching your new website. You will need to set concrete deadlines to make sure your project stays on track. Grouping content creation activities into relevant chunks ensures that you complete tasks on time. Starting with the about section helps set the tone for your copy and assists in determining what key differentiators to focus on throughout the site. Save the smaller, less copy-heavy pages like contact and locations for the end. Set initial copy deadlines for your team, schedule reviews by all stakeholders, and, finally, determine when to input all copy into the site. Planning your website content doesn’t have to be as burdensome as it may seem. By investing time in pre-planning and strategy, the process can be much easier.
