Organizing Your Project
As Easy as 1, 2, 3

From the technical viewpoint, there are design techniques that people have learned that will make your web site more efficient on the computer and more enjoyable for your visitors.

	The part of your web site that is first displayed is known as your "home page". If you make your home page short such that it loads quickly, your readers will appreciate it. Keep your home page short by having it contain (a) an introduction and overview of your web site, and (b) links to the other pages in your site that give details about your theme. Call your home page index.html and use lower case; be sure and use html not htm for the file extension.
	Each of the detail pages is a different .htm or .html file (either extension can be used for pages that are not your home page). The use of detail pages allows your web site to be created in several small pieces instead of one or two large pieces, and this will make for faster loading of your site.
	Keep all of the files that comprise this project in one folder on your computer, the Project folder that you were asked to create (see the Getting Started page of this site).
