- Creating Websites
I cannot agree with the other rave reviews. It is supposed to be a beginner's guide. So how can one write 'Fire up your favorite text editor and start writing HTML content.' What is a text editor? It has not been explained yet! To have a 'favorite' one needs to know what it is, have experience of different ones, and from experience to have chosen a 'favorite'. All that is the hallmark of someone with experience, NOT a beginner. He doesn't know what a 'beginner' is so this is NOT a good book for a beginner who wants to create a web site. There are lots of similar titles out there. But which one is a good beginner's guide, I wonder?

- Great, excellent, easy to understand
This book is really good if you're new to website design and blogging. As usual, the missing manual series has debug website design in easy to understand manner, and with less jargon. It takes one through the very basic website design method, lays down the tools you need and how to use it. This is a must read book if you are new to web design and want to learn from scratch. It can't get better than this.

- great for novice website builders
This book is a great starting point for people wanting to set up their first website, or even weblog.

The book is broken up into four sections, covering how to plan your site, find a good webhost and register your funky new domain name, through to a primer for HTML and CSS and web graphics and finishing off with some excellent advice on how to attract visitors to your site, and how to get them to stay!

The book is firmly aimed at the web-novice - some of the sections on html and css are fairly basic, but cover the material well, staying clear of the too much jargon pitfall that dogs other books on the subject. Even so, there are some ... Read More:
