You'll probably need some HTML basics at some time, however you choose to make your website.
Even fully integrated sitebuilders require you to
either add the odd bit of code or at least understand what's going
on with the coding so that you can indentify a problem and put it
right.
There's no need to worry about this however, as what
you'll use on a day-to-day basis is quite limited and you don't
necessarily have to understand it, just have a little knowledge.

stands for 'HyperText Mark-up Language' and in very simple terms
is a common text language used to create web pages.
Think of it as a special language that browsers -
like Firefox and Internet Explorer - can understand and convert
into the nice pages you see on the web.

You can take a look at how any web page has been created
by going to your browser and clicking on 'View'

people have put their pages together, and sometimes you can 'reverse
engineer' a bit of code to work out how something has been done.
If you do that for this page, you'll notice a few
HTML basics that are the same on any web page:
