Editorial Review / Publisher's Information:

Product Description
The number of Internet sites has tripled in the last three years, which means that more and more businesses, organizations, and individuals are building Web sites. Filled with pointers on devising a building plan, registering a site name, developing server space, and filling a site with eye-catching pages, this friendly guide will help you transform simple Web pages into professional Web sites. The CD-ROM contains CGI scripts, Web design tools, and graphics creation tools.

Amazon.com Review
If you're just getting your feet wet in Web site construction, the first big hurdle is figuring out where to start. Building a Web Site for Dummies lightens things up with humor and makes the challenge of building a site far less daunting.

This book doesn't zoom you right into coding HTML, although it covers the markup language quite well. Instead, it offers a much higher-level look at site design by examining the general questions of navigation principles, affiliation possibilities, building communications with your users, and other wide-ranging topics. For this reason, the book covers a lot of ground and offers a broad perspective on site design that transcends simple page coding.

A couple of the more useful sections on Web site tools and e-commerce cover useful utilities, such as NetMechanic, Statbot, and Spinwave. The chapter on e-commerce helps you get to know the ropes of selling stuff online, and points you to online malls, fulfillment services, and currency converters.

The companion CD-ROM contains evaluation versions of useful tools, such as Paint Shop Pro, HomeSite 4.5, Fireworks, and Dreamweaver. You won't find all of the knowledge that you seek to become a Web site guru in this book, but you will gain perspective and learn tons of useful tips and tricks. --Stephen W. Plain

 • Good Book
12 April, 2009

If you don't know HTML, or are just learning, this is great book. I had a basic understanding of HTML already and just loved this little book.

 • Not A Dummies Book
30 July, 2009

This book falsely advertises to SERIOUS beginners of web design. However, the book is in fact for people who have prior knowledge of design, whether it be HTML coding, or the use of Dreamweaver. Real beginners will start to get lost VERY early on in the book. I suggest finding another resource to help you with beginning site building.
