What is a Website?

            A website is a collection of web pages (documents that are accessed through the internet). A web page is what you see on the screen when you type in a web address, click on a link, or put a query in a search engine. A web page can contain any type of information, and can include text, color, graphics, animation and sound.

            When someone give you their web address, it generally takes you to their website’s home page, which should introduce you to what that site offers in terms of information or other services. From the home page, you can click on links to reach other sections of the site. A website can consist of one page, or of tens of thousands of pages, depending on what the site owner is trying to accomplish.

The World Wide Web

            The World Wide Web (usually called the Web) is a gigantic storehouse of information. The web is the most popular part of the internet, partly because it displays most information in a visually appealing format. Headlines, text and pictures can be combined on a single webpage much like a page in a magazine along with sound and animation.

            A website is a collection of interconnected webpages. The web contains millions of websites and billions of webpages.

Why do people visit website?

            Generally, people look at websites for two primary reasons

            1. Too find information they need. This could be anything that students are looking for as pictures of frogs for a school project, to find the latest stock quotes, getting the address of the nearest Thai restaurant.

            2. To complete a task, visitors may want to buy the latest best-seller, download a software program, or participate in an online discussion about a favorite hobby.

            The main thing to remember in creating a website is that you’re not crating the website for you; you already know about the information or service you have to offer. You’re creating the site for your visitors, so it should contain the content they want, and be organized in a way that makes sense, even to an outsider.

            A website is a mean of communication and it is only successful when its message is received by the intended user.
