    1.open notepad

    2. type your html, you will need some thing like:

    Title

    your code here

    3. press file save as

    4. type the file name .html Example: index.html

    5. make the save as type “All Files”
    and leave the encoding to what ever it is already

    6. find the file and open it, it should display in the browser.

    For a beginner i recommend a free piece of software called Hap Edit.

    Open notepad and start your HTML code like usual. So something like

    First Webpage

    This is my first webpage…

    Then the important step is when you save it, save it as a .html so index.html

    If you want to make changes, just open notepad and click open and select the index.html

    1. Open notepad
    2. type this

    that is the skeleton for HTML, the basics, which i wont describe here, there are plenty of resources online.

    3. File->Save As…
    4. Save it as blahblahblah.html (make sure you put .html on the end, or .htm)
    5. Add content to the site

    May I reccommend downloading Notepad++, it is much better than using just notepad.
