Web Hosting Advice - New page on website


Expert: Marty Landman - 2/16/2009

Question
Hi, I have just started a website (www.shoppeunique.com) that is all in HTML and I use Brinkster which give NO coding advice. All I need to know, at this point, is how do I start a new page? I have my front page and I would like to have another page that has friends and links and things on it and have a button on page one that gets you there. I am sure it cannot be that hard but I cannot find the answer anywhere. Also, do I just start the page just like I would the first page, with  a head and body and such? I know this is very basic but I am flying by the seat of my pants and have no idea what i am doing. I hope you can help. Also, Is Brinkster a bad site to have signed up with? Thanks! Diana

Answer
Diana,

I can't advise about Brinkster, but can help with how to make another page on your site. Find wherever on the server you've put the homepage, then add a new file on that same directory called mypage.html. Now someone going to http://www.yoursite.com/mypage.html will see that page.

You should also take care to have links from the homepage to the new page and vice versa. A link can be made simple in html like so:

<a href="/mypage.html">go to my page</a>
