ABSTRACT

The Web's global impact has brought people numerous advantages, large and small. And it is transforming society at all levels as untold number of people actively blog, microblog, and otherwise express themselves with online media. It goes without saying that an understanding of the Web and how it works will be good for everyone. The Web uses Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) to identify many kinds of resources available on the Internet. Any Internet host with a good Internet connection can provide Web hosting. A Web host provides space for websites to store webpages, pictures, audio and video files, and any programs that produce Web content on the fly. More importantly, the Web host also runs a Web server program through which the stored websites can be accessed on the Web. The simplicity of hypertext markup language (HTML) makes it easy to learn and publish webpages.
