Over my year of designing web pages, I have had many different sources of inspiration. Being a self-taught webmaster, most of my experience comes from extensive hours hunched over my keyboard surfing the net. In doing so, I came to have a better understanding of the dos and don'ts of the Internet. The criteria I developed is a summary of those hours of surfing assembled into one neat package.

Over the past year, I also found myself diving into random HTML guides and books. One book I found helpful, though a little complex for the beginner coder, is Web Publishing Unleashed -Stanek, W.R.. (1997). Web Publishing Unleashed. Indianapolis, IN: Sams.net Publishing. It looked at pretty much everything one would need to know and understand in order to build a good website. I also found some helpful articles pertaining to the Internet in Educational Technology journal. Here are some of those references for your perusal:
