  16. Read these suggestions for setting link color: • Red Shouts (In the jungle red serves as a strong warning of danger. Almost all animals are more sensitive to red than other colors. Go to a magazine rack and see how red is used to stand out. It is the number one flag color. It is why lipstick works. Red says “over here”, “hit me”. Blue says “been there, done that”.

  17. What do you click to change margins or background color of your page? • Modify Page Properties

  18. Name the two ways to link files in Dreamweaver? • Browse for File and Point to File

  19. How do you get your website listed with a search engine (google/yahoo)? • Officially list it with the various search engines (fill out a form giving them information about your site.) • Insert <META> tags in your webpage listing a description of the site and inserting various keywords a person might type in to search for your site.

  20. What do “robots” or “spiders” have to do with the www (world wide web)? • They are electronic devices that search engines use to search out the web for content. • For example, if you put Jake Porter as a keyword in your webpage, a search engines robot or spider would find it and bring it back as a result when you search for Jake Porter – try it – go to dogpile.com and type Jake Porter Northwest High School (see what you find).

  21. Why do you suppose our school website is one of the hits? • Click on the link to our website – it should take you to our main high school page. • Click View, Source and look for the <meta> tag at the very top of the code. It has high school, northwest and Jake Porter in the keywords. • The robot/spider sent out by dogpile picked up our site because it found those keywords.

  22. What is the <html> tag needed to insertkeywords and a description for search engines. • <meta>

  23. The <meta> should be included inside which <html> tag? • <Head> <title> </title> <meta name="description" content="Northwest High School, McDermott, OH, Home of the Mohawks.”> <meta name="keywords" content="high school, northwest, mohawks, mcdermott, oh, scioto, Ohio, SOC, Jake Porter,"> </Head>

  24. So what are keywords? • Words someone might type into a search engine to find your site.

  25. Why put a description in your <meta> tag? • Because search engines “might” use this description in the results of a search to describe your site. • Try it – go to google.com and type:northwest high school • Scroll down, see our school? Click it. When you get to our site, click View Source – find the <meta> tag, our description was used by google

  26. There is a limit to the number of keywords a robot will read . . . • 10 -15

  27. What is this calledHome | Clubs | Faculty | Sports • Navigation Bar

  28. Why do some webpages have a button navbar and a text navbar? • To accommodate blind users. The blind have text readers that will read all the text on a webpage to them. Since buttons are not text, the reader will skip over them. Therefore, they need to have the links as text so the reader will tell them there are links to other pages. The readers read the <html> code as well so they know the difference between text and text that is linked.

  29. What is the hexadecimal code for NHS Red? • #E60000

  30. What is the hexadecimal code for NHS blue? • #001e99

  32. What is a placeholder? • A blank object that you can set the height and width of the picture you will eventually put in its place (remember the trees that you inserted – the placeholder was there holding its place until the image was ready.

  33. When setting the link color of the link for the current page . . . • Set it in a different color as the rest of the links to indicate that it is the current page. • Go to the NHS website and go to Athletics, Basketball, Boys and see if the webmasters are doing this for the links that go across the top of the pages.

  34. When should “named anchors” be used? • When you want to link to sections within a long page. You want to jump from the top of the page way down to another section on the page. • Set the anchors and then hyperlink to them.
