How to learn HTML Fast

If you've been to the bookstore lately, you'd easily believe that it takes ages to learn HTML. There are dozens of books on learning HTML fast - but, by "fast", they then say "in a weekend" or "in 24 hours."

Why does it need to take so long?

The fact is, learning basic HTML is easy - as long as you try out what you are learning immediately.

The problem is, many of these courses rely on three different parts that you have to juggle. You need a text editor, web browser and book.

For example, the standard way to learn is to open the Notepad program on your computer, type in some HTML. Save it somewhere on your computer. Then, find the file on your computer and open it in your web browser. If you make changes, you then have to go back to your web browser and click refresh.

Now, imagine doing this for everything single concept you learn. Repeat this process dozens of times, and you begin to see why it would take so long. So much for learning HTML fast - you'd be exhausted by the end of the first chapter.

Learning HTML from a book means having to juggle these three parts - the book, the editor and the browser. That's why it takes so long - the principles can be understood pretty quickly. But it is the wasted seconds in between learning about principles and trying them out that diminishes your capacity to learn.

This is where a system like One Hour HTML really succeeds. You learn far quicker because all three parts are combined into one. You read about a principle, type it in to the program and - with one click - your formatted text opens up. This really is learning HTML fast.

HTML is easy - but the process of learning HTML is usually harder than it needs to be.
