How to start a web page

My first web page tutorials came from days of experimentation. I used two text books from a required CIS class that I took as part of my marketing major. I also went to my local public library and read many books. With the help of each book and several online tutorials I was able to create a template and the beginning of my first web page.

Grid layout design helps to manage the visual desired outcome of a web site. As you can see in the second image,the content area on the right is outside of the grid layout specified in the header section. The grid system does not set a standard on layout, web pages that are not proportional is acceptable as well. However in this case, my goal was to set each element in proportion with each other.

I will attempt to use the grid system again soon.
