What people often ask me is how to create a website. Being in the computer industry is so elite. It is very typical for anyone to be interested in it. The easiest way to get into it is by creating your own website. It's simply instant eliteness. Nobody has got anything to lose.



So, how to do it? Luckily for me, I had training in doing it during highschool. For those who didn't, don't worry. You can always visit w3schools.com. The tutorial there is straightforward and comprehensive.



After your tutorial on w3schools.com you will realize that you can always create a website on your own computer. It is easy.



The only thing missing is how are you going to share it to the whole world. In layman's terms, how are you going to make it go live?



There are basically two ways: one, without payment; and two, with payment.



To accomplish the first one you need a free web hosting site. Register there and before you know it you have a website up and running for the whole world to see.



The catch is you can't always control the whole domain name on these free web hosting websites. For example, x.com is the free web hosting website. Sometimes, for them to host your site freely, you will be restricted to a domain name that is .x.com.



To accomplish the latter, which requires payment, you need to rent your own server. What is a server, you say?



A server is the one who serves the website to the client(s). It is literally derived from a server-client relationship in a restaurant. A client orders food from the server and the server consequently serves what the client orders.



It embodied by a protocol. The protocol being the rule that it is always imperative that when a client orders something, the server must always serve it to him/her; just as the rule that the client must almost always has to pay for his/her food is important.



You need to write code which the server will serve to your clients. You have to decide on which service you can provide.



In the case of theclarky.com, the service that it provides is being an image hosting website where users can upload and view images around the world.



For that to work, I must write a code that will instruct my server(s) on what to do so that it(they) can do it's(their) job correctly.



That is it for today's crash course on how to create a website.



Let me know what you think on the comment section.
