But if the site is going to be very large and complex, then you will need to organize files into separate directories and sub-directories. Developing a logical directory structure is an essential part of planning your web site. You can have a subdirectory for sound clippings.

8. Develop a look & feel The term Look and Feel means the overall representation of your site. It is the combination of color, graphics, type and text that help to convey your meaning with style and impact.

10. Steps to publish a website

11. Establish the basics: your website will need two things: A unique domain name: Each domain name is registered with DNS( Domain Name Server), which indentifies a domain name with a unique internet protocol addresses. Space: Each website must have a web space allocated to it. This is provided by a web server, many of which are maintain by private companies.

12. Find out if the name you want is available.  Many websites (such as domainsbot ) will catalogue which domains are available. Or, you can always try typing the domain you want into the URL field of your browser .

13. Find a website that can show you similar domain names that are available.  Searching a taken domain will turn up similar domains that are still open. For example, if you want to register the domain name “domainhostingcompany.com” you'd see that “domainhostingcompany.co” is available but “domainhostingcompany.com” is already registered.

14. Register your domain.  Find a domain name registrar and sign up your domain. (To find a registrar, simply search "domain name registrar.") You'll probably have to pay a start-up fee, as well as a yearly fee to keep the domain registered in your name. Afterward, the registrar will provide you with access to a control panel for your website .

15. Manage your website.   From the control panel, you can check your disk space and monthly bandwidth space. You can also upload and download the contents of the website, as well as updating the files and folders of the website using FTP server address .
