Use HTML "TEMPLATES" !	Organize: use CR'S, all-caps, etc.
Test-drive your web site: Use more than one browser/platform.	Check tags for typos, extra spaces, missing <'s or >'s
Titles: 8 characters or less with a 3 letter suffix	Use GIF89a vs. CompuServe GIF and GIF vs. JPEG
Use horizontal/left justified graphic design	Credit yourself and watch out for copyrights! Thou shall not steal!
WYSIWYG/HTML editors should be used secondary to your text editor	Use color! If you use a background, don't let it dominate your foreground.
Put images in a folder or directory labeled "images"	ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS...HAVE A BACKUP
Use a text editor with a spell check	Double check your tags: begin AND end, don't forget your "/"s
Break larger pages into individually linked pages or use horizontal rules	Create a "Table of Contents"
Write clearly and concisely: Web-pages should be context-independent	Do not overuse emphasis
Simple is always better: Site layout should be consistent	Group related information, both textually and graphically
Provide a link back to your homepage	Provide alternatives to graphics for text-only browsers
Do not link irrelavent material	Keep your graphics as low in memory as possible, use thumbnails
