Make your page

If you are a beginner like me, I suggest you use an HTML editor to start making your web page.   With an HTML editor like Microsoft FrontPage or the GeoCities GeoBuilder, you can create and edit Web pages without needing to know HyperText Markup Language (HTML) - It creates all the HTML code for you.

Geocities is a great neighborhood to put your homepage in.  Look for the area which where your page belongs and look around the neighborhoods for an empty "lot".  It's all yours when you move in and put up your page.

Here are some sites you can visit to help you make your own page.
