-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 You're talking two different things here. when you're looking at upload and download, usually that's measured in mbits. So 8 mbits gives you 128 kbps up/down. Now if you're using any kind of js, some of those are 32 (jquery, bootstrap etc). css adds another say 16 which brings us to a grand total of 48. If your webpage is 4 kb, that puts us at 52. Add another couple for header information etc and we're now at 54. Two visitors at once and you have what we call a saturated connection. Bandwidth feels like a lot, but when you actually start sending data out it ends up that what you thought of as a lot isn't anymore.

If it's mostly text content you won't need much bandwidth to serve up web pages. A commercial broadband service will probably be required to get a static IP, at least that's what Cox cable in my area required. With just 512kb up (about 50K per second) it works ok for basic web serving. A nice UPS battery backup can keep a Mac mini and a cablemodem going for quite a while. The web sharing checkbox is gone in preferences on OSX 10.10 but Apple still bundles the Apache web server, which you can turn on via terminal commands. You can still play and set things up to serve pages just to yourself on your local network before you go live. Registering a domain through somebody like GoDaddy is $10 for a year and up to $14.50 for 10 years. For that much it might make sense to register your domain before somebody else takes it even if it does nothing but sit there for a while.

You canput text edit in "plain text" mode and start writing your first html file. Then load that in Safari to check your work. You'll just flip back and forth adding stuff and reviewing. Once you've got the hang of HTML then I'd start thinking about hosting and setting up a domain name. So in text edit, before you create a new file go to preferences and set the format radio button to Plain text. Name your file something ending in either .htm or .html such as MyFirstWebPage.html and then you can start putting html in there. Once you have saved that file somewhere you can open MyFirstWebPage.html in Safari to review the results.There are piles of free tutorials out there so just googlearound. Web pages are generally three general buckets. HTML is the content with markup sprinkled around to tell what the content is such as a paragraph, list or table. CSS is Cascading Style Sheets where you can make, for example, all the headings a certain font or add margin to paragraphs. The last most complex bit is javascript which is code that can manipulate the content or the styles, usually in reaction to user events such as mouse clicks or keystrokes.CB On 6/22/15 6:29 PM, Nancy Badger wrote:Hi, I am thinking of building a very simple website.
