Internet - pamelajoy.com

When I first started this website in 1997, I had visions of sharing my journey step-by-step so that others wouldn't have to go through the same agonies that I did in learning the Internet. Along the way I found helpful people who would share their knowledge with me so that the journey wasn't quite so agonizing. After all these years, I still have intentions of collecting the links that have helped me so much. Here are a few of my favorites. I hope they help you as much as they have helped me.

WebPage Making Links

~ HTML help pages ~

Atomz.com - provides a search engine for your site. I use it to validate the internal links because the log will tell you which page on your site had the dead link.
My IP - Sometimes when I am looking through the logs of my website, I want to know what my IP is so that I can tell the pages that I viewed.
Favicon from Pics is great for making your own personalized icon from any image. I drew my image and then Favicon generator converted it to an .ico format.
W3 Schools - is a wonderful place to learn how to write HTML, CSS, XHTML, browser and server scripting.
PageCounter has a neat little utility that will count all the pages on your site. Atomz will also count the pages.
Dr HTML will give you a single page analysis of your site, including document structure, image syntax, table analysis, browser and font support, form structure, spelling, metatags, and HTML format.
GraphicGoo is a friendly forum of graphic artists who are willing to share their knowledge.
Webmonkey has provided me many tutorials that have helped me to learn CSS and HTML tricks and tips.
Webopedia, online Internet dictionary, is the place to go if you hear an Internet term that you don't understand.
Keyword Density Analyzer will help you determine the density of keywords on your web pages. Some people think this is important for getting a high ranking on search engines. My theory has been to provide content and they will come.
W3.org Validator will tell you if your HTML markup is correct. This also helps me find typos in my HTML.
W3.org Link Checker will check one page or several linked pages. This is another good way to check for typos in URLs.
CSS Validator will validate your style sheet. I have learned so much from using this service. I aim to have every page validate except those that have the colors on the scroll bar. That will not validate.
ZDNet Software Downloads provides programs which makes creating webpages easier with developer tools, utilities, security programs, and more, all sorted by category.
