Web Design in easy steps: 5th Edition

by Sean McManus

There are millions of websites on the Internet, but most of them fail to make a lasting impression on readers and web surfers. Creating a site that is both appealing and financially remunerative can seem challenging, but this invaluable tool makes the process both simple and fun. As with every book in the popular series of computer books, this one walks readers through every step of the process. From design planning to search engine promotion, each step of the process is thoroughly explained in clear, jargon-free English. Full-color graphics, including numerous screenshots, add further support and clarification. Written by the designer of the website for the In Easy Steps series, this book contains all the information needed to create a website that looks good and makes money. This updated edition adds more value by covering HTML and CSS.

I bought this book without having any background on it, something I don't do frequently, yet it worked out very nicely in this case. There was a lot of information packed into this little volume, yet it was presented in a way that was not overwhelming for a beginning to mid-level student of Web design. I keep it in my office and refer to it frequently. If you are looking for a solid introduction to web design concepts that does not read like a textbook, this is for you.
