The best way to learn most things is by doing it. After you follow the instructions in the next section, you'll have completed a very simple web page. There are tons of resources available on the Internet, in local libraries, and bookstores where you can obtain information on creating web pages. At the end of this document there are some links that will take you to some great tutorials and other resources on the web.

I want to make it clear that you can learn this. If you keep the Benjamin Franklin example in mind. You don't have to learn that many tags to be able to produce nice looking web pages. If you just set aside an afternoon for concentrating on learning the basics, you can get quite far, and have a page on the web you can be proud of. As you learn more, you can add content, pages and features until you have developed your site.
