How to turn your HTML code to a Website that works

For most beginners, turning HTML codes to a working website seems like a puzzle. 
To turn HTML code into a functioning website, you'll need to follow these steps:

1. Create an HTML File: Write your HTML code using a text editor like Notepad (Windows), TextEdit (macOS), or a code editor like Visual Studio Code, Sublime Text, or Atom. Save the file with the ".html" extension.

2. Structure Your HTML: Ensure your HTML file includes the necessary structure. At a minimum, it should have the following tags:

   ```html
   <!DOCTYPE html>
   <html>
   <head>
       <title>Your Website Title</title>
   </head>
   <body>
       <!-- Your website content goes here -->
   </body>
   </html>
   ```

3. Add Content: Fill in the `<body>` section with your website content, including text, images, links, and any other elements you want to include.

4. Apply CSS (Optional): To style your website, you can use CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). Create a separate ".css" file and link it to your HTML file using the `<link>` tag in the `<head>` section.

   ```html
   <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css">
   ```

   In your CSS file, define styles for HTML elements.

5. Add JavaScript (Optional): If your website needs interactivity, you can use JavaScript. Create a separate ".js" file and link it to your HTML file using the `<script>` tag, typically placed just before the closing `</body>` tag.

   ```html
   <script src="script.js"></script>
   ```

6. Test Locally: Open your HTML file in a web browser to test how it looks and behaves. Make any necessary adjustments to your code.

7. Domain and Hosting (Optional): To make your website accessible on the internet, you'll need a domain name (e.g., www.yourwebsite.com) and a web hosting service. Many hosting providers offer easy ways to upload your HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files.

8. Upload Your Files: If you have web hosting, upload your HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files to the server. Hosting providers often have a control panel or FTP (File Transfer Protocol) access for this purpose.

9. Access Your Website: Once your files are uploaded, you can access your website using your domain name or the hosting provider's provided URL.

10. Maintenance: Regularly update and maintain your website by editing the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files as needed.

Remember that building a complete and functional website may involve additional technologies and tools like content management systems (CMS), server-side scripting languages (e.g., PHP), and databases. 

The steps above provide a basic overview of creating a static website using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

The world needs the Gifts and Skills that only you have

 TAP THE UNTAPPED. RELEASE THE RESERVOIR. Learn more at the Ransford Online School. Your life has the potential to fulfill your purpose. If, however, you imprison that potential, you rob your life of its purpose and fulfillment.  You and every other individual on this planet possess an awesome treasure. Too much of this treasure is buried every day, untapped and untouched, in the cemeteries of our world.  Much talent, skill and creativity have been lost to the world for want of a little courage. Many obscure men and women enter eternity pregnant with potential, with a still-born purpose. Living with ability brings responsibility. Dying with ability reveals irresponsibility. Everything in creation was designed to function on the simple principle of receiving and releasing. Life depends on this principle.  What if the plants refused to release the oxygen they possess or if we human beings refused to release the carbon dioxide we produce?  The result would be chaos...

Worldview Matters

Worldviews are rules, values, beliefs and biases that an individual customer brings to buying situation.  If Jude got completely screwed the last time he bought a car from a used-car salesman, the worldview he has when visiting a dealership four years later is a little different than that of someone who is buying her third car in four years from the same place. If Nkechi sees her job as purchasing agent for a big company as one where she should avoid risks, she’ll view that new salesperson in her office very differently than if her understanding of her job is that she should cut costs by innovating and trying new alternatives. Different people, different worldviews. People can see the same data and make a totally different decision. Worldview Affects What's bought ! People don’t buy what we sell. They buy or want to buy what it will do for them. They want the way it will make them feel. What we sell is a means to an end. They are roads to achieve...
