6a:	Text editor
	You will need to type your content and markup into your HTML file. You can use a plain text editor like Notepad. It won't help you with spelling or fix your markup, but it comes "free", bundled with Windows. Whatever you decide to use, your files must be saved as plain text.
6b:	Image editor
	If you are operating on a low budget, you can put up a site with no images or freeware images. But I think this is worth splurging on. Photoshop Elements is a good basic image editing program that will provide you with the image editing capability to make your pages look professional. It may even come bundled with a scanner or other system component.
6c:	File transfer
	You will need to get your files from your computer to your server. If you are using Windows, you can use the FTP capabilities of MSIE or MyComputer. You may find other freeware or inexpensive FTP programs through your web host or by searching the Internet.   Using MSIE or MyComputer to Upload Files Open an MSIE or MyComputer window. Using your domain name, type into the address line: ftp://ftp.myDomain.tld then press enter. Close the popup window (that says ftp session terminated). From the window's menu, open File>Login As... Using the login name and password you received from your web host, log in to your site. Open the directory you want to upload files into. Open a separate window to MyComputer and find the files you want to upload. Drag the files from your local directory to your site directory. To close the FTP session, close the MSIE or MyComputer window that is logged in to your site.

Text Editors
      A text editor and a document editor are two different things. A document editor leaves formatting characters in the stored file that would confuse a browser. A text editor stores only plain text, with carriage-return and newline characters at the end of each line. Most document editors have the option of saving files as plain text if you choose. HTML files are text files, so a text editor is all you need to create the files you need for your page.

HTML Editors
      If you have decided to learn HTML, you might want to invest in one of the HTML editors on the market. These editors insert the appropriate HTML tags with the click of a button. This can also be a handy tool if you only edit HTML files occasionally. The editor will jog your memory of HTML, but you still have the option of fine tuning your markup code. The drawback of this type of editor is that you are limited to the markup code that was implemented by the software developer. As you expand your range, the editor doesn't. Keeping this in mind, an HTML editor is a good tool for beginners.

WYSIWYG
      What-you-see-is-what-you-get tools allow you to format pages without ever seeing the HTML source. These editors may not have the flexibility of direct HTML editing, but the great advantage is that you don't have to learn HTML. If you are busy, or if you will only do occasional HTML editing, this may be the type of editor you want. There are a number of subtle drawbacks to this type of editing. For example, if you format a page to fit perfectly on your screen, what will happen on another size of screen? This depends on how the HTML code was implemented. The page you are viewing now has a fixed size "paper" that puts itself in the center of the window. If the window is too small, the "paper" does not resize. Depending on how your WYSIWYG editor works, this page could be implemented in a number of ways. In some, the "paper" would resize, making the page unreadable in smaller windows. These tools are getting better all the time, but shop carefully and test your pages on a variety of systems if possible.

Image Aquisition
      Images can be aquired in a number of ways. Digital cameras and scanners are invaluable for obtaining images of your own. Many images are also available on the Internet. Be sure you have permission before you copy a file from a site. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Digital images can also be created "from scratch" with a variety of software tools on the market.

Image Presentation
      Once you have aquired your images, you need to edit them for presentation. Cropping, adjusting color, and adding text are just the beginning of a long list of creative options available for making outstanding images.

7a:	Edit your source file
	Open your text editor. Type or copy some source into your editor. Save this file in a location on your computer that will hold your site files. Make sure you save this file with a .htm or .html suffix. You can give it any filename you want. If you are planning on replacing your existing home page, use the same file name. Your home page will have a name like index.html or default.htm. Remember, filenames are case sensitive. If your home page is called Index.htm, use that name.
7b:	Upload your file
	Open your FTP program. You will need your domain login name and password to set up your FTP session. Get to know your server site. It may not be obvious where your file should go. Read any information offered by your web host to get you started. When you are ready, copy (FTP) your source file to your server. If you are nervous, don't overwrite anything until you feel more comfortable with this process. Don't worry, if you put your file in the wrong place, you can always delete it later.
7c:	View your page
	Now you are ready to view your page online. Open your browser and type your URL in the address line. If you have overwritten your home page, your URL will look like this:   http://www.myDomain.tld If you have installed a separate file, your URL will look like this:   http://www.myDomain.tld/myFile.html If you have done everything right, your page will appear. If your page does not appear as expected, review your process. Get help from your web host if neccessary. Persist until you can view a page you have installed. Document your successful process so you can repeat your success when you are ready to install your site files.
