    I'm working on an HTML tutorial right now. It has some blog posts to read, or videos to watch if you prefer that method. Let me know what you think about this: http://mihelcich.com/archives/2013/06/03/learning-html-the-easy-way/

    its easy dear.....
    first... all html tags start with < and ends with >
    lets take a look... for bold a text

    <strong> hello... this is a bold text. </Strong>

    HTML is not case sensitive you can write this uppar case or lower case... both meaning is same....
    you can ask me any question related to HTML....

    Go for free Hosting and Domains, Play with some Free scripts like MyBB, Wordpress etc, try to edit their themes, observe how they were made. There are dozens of HTML tutorials out there.
    http://lmgtfy.com/?q=how to learn html
    Give them a try. If you are able to spend some money for tutorials go for Lynda.com subscription. Their video tutorials are best in my opinion as they start with the very basic of anything.

    Everyone who said that he/her should stay with learning HTML and CSS and other coding languages like PHP It is not your decision to decide what he/her should to create a website. let him/her do what he/her wants!

    I was on the same boat as you i found it too hard to learn HTML/CSS and you have to remember as well and take alot of time as well. after i gave up after a couple weeks and now i use a website builder.


    Here are some websites builders you should try or start to create your website
    see what's best for you.

    http://www.weebly.com
    https://www.yola.com/
    http://www.webs.com
    http://www.angelfire.lycos.com
    http://www.jimdo.com
    http://www.webstarts.com

    They are all free!

    And on these website builders (above) you can put ads on your website and earn money from that or create a web store(ecommerce) like Amazon.com

    I recommend Weebly.com and i still use Weebly.com (nearly 2 years now)
    I created a website on Weebly.com and its a voting website check it out http://www.pollsfun.com

    Website builders are great getting a website up and running as fast as possible and great for beginners and for professionals and great for SEO.

    Note: More and more PEOPLE are using Website builders to create there websites now days than learning to code (HTML, CSS)

    Hope this helps

    I recommend to download some simple free html template and edit it with your datas. Learning by work is 100 x better than learning from books, tutorials etc.

    First of all, w3schools.com offers free html lessons. I would get any of my sources from them. They also list all html tags
    <html>, <head>,<body>, ect, ect
    HTML:
    and explain what each one does. My other suggestion is: if you don't already have it, wordpress is an excellent CMS (content management system) as well as wysiwyg/html editor. It is free, and you can create your own html pages and learn at the same time because it displays your SOURCE code where you are able to edit it. So, you have your wysiwyg as well as your normal point and click html editor. Btw... wysiwyg = what you see is what you get - in reference to the html editor.

    Learning Html or any language takes an action , if you don't take an action you will never learn anything .

    Why don't you install an Apache server on your computer and then use that to practice writing HTML. p.s. if you're starting out now make sure you begin with HTML5, CSS3 and responsive design. You'll be thankful later!

    Why do you need a web server for this?

    The best way to learn HTML & CSS it's to take a free template, and then you can examine and play with his code. If there is something what you don't understand check the below sites to see the meaning of the code:
    http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp
    &
    http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp

    You will get ample of videos in You Tube about HTML tutorial. Besides, w3schools.com is also very useful site. Besides, Learning Web Design : A Beginner's Guide to HTML, CSS, Javascript and Web Graphics is a great book written by Jennifer Niederst Robbins, I am benefited personally by this book and I am learning too.

    I would like to add to this post in the hopes of answering any pending questions: In reference to adding a web server - you would need accesss to a server because, if you are learning css, you may want to make reference to your style sheet which would contain all your website's design/layout/ which would need to be stored at the server, i.e. online. Plus, some elements won't display correctly without access to the internet.
