Before trying to make your own web page and launch it on the Internet, first you need to know how web pages work. Here are the basic terms:
- The server receives the request for a page sent by your browser.
- The browser connects to the server through an IP Adress; the IP address is obtained by translating the domain name.
- In return, the server sends back the requested page.
Web pages are written in HTML, Hypertext Markup Language. A markup language is a computer language that describes the layout, format and content of a page. The Web browser renders the page according to the HTML code.
Web servers are computers whose job is to respond to a browser’s request for a web page and deliver it through the internet. Pages hosted on a web server can be displayed to anyone all over the world. It is like a hard drive that stores your website files and images. In order to host your page on a web server you need to pay a hosting charge.
