Real dummies: just say NO…,
When the “Dummies” series books first came out, they were truly for “dummies”. Apparently not so anymore. Right on the cover of this book is the phrase “Go from Web surfer to site developer”. Well, web surfer I am, and what I was looking for was a book to give me the ABSOLUTE BASICS about creating a web site. This book assumes that you as the reader, already know how to create a web site!! HELLO!! If I knew how to create a web site, I wouldn’t need the book, thanks. Page 2 “Foolish Assumptions”: “We figure that you have some kind of experience with creating web pages.” WHAT?! I thought this book was going to turn me from a surfer to a developer. Page 27: the first line of chapter 3 reads “This chapter’s here just in case you need a refresher on basic web page building before…” CHAPTER 3! Refresher! This book obviously should be titled “Enhancing Your Web Site for Dummies”. This book does not even explain to a “Dummy” how to create the file necessary to create a web page. What a waste of twenty bucks.

A good Dummies book,
Read the title! This is not an HTML book. If you are hoping to be able to code your first web site after reading this book, you might struggle a bit.
This is a decent book on how to construct a web site. As with most “Dummies” books the explanations seem to drag. However, I have found that they can be a good introduction to a subject, if the reader is truly “in the dark”.
If you have never written any type of computer program, or if you struggle with using your computer, and are still set on creating your own web page (go for it; they aren’t that tough) buy this book and “HTML for Dummies”. The combination of the two will get you up and running.

OK For general Ideas,
If you are looking to code a webpage or site, buy this book along with HTML 4 for the WWW by E. Castro. Castro’s book is easy to follow and deals with multi-browser webpage construction. This Dummies book does give you a good feel about the practical things to consider when constructing a website. Not just about creating a page with links and pictures, but about practical navigation construction and how to build websites for a particular audience (ie. websites for your family versus an e-commerce site). Some useful info here, but they should not jump into HTML without creating a good feel for it in this book–try Castro’s or HTML for Dummies–becuase this book could have served one better if it stuck with the key ingredients for a decent site, then had a small primer for HTML or recommended good HTML books. For other website design books, try Web Usability by J. Neilsen. This is an ok book that deal with the problems associated with website construction–Web Usability has color pictures and is not dependent on any one design software package.
