Naming the First Web Page of a Web Site

The first page of a web site must be named a particular way.  In most cases, index.html is appropriate.  However, check with your web hosting provider as they will have a list of acceptable names for the Home Page.

But, if you do not  yet have web hosting, then your safest bet is to stick with index.html as I have found this to be universally acceptable. 

*default.html, on the other hand, is not always supported by web hosts.  In other words, naming the home page default.html is sometimes ignored by various web hosting providers.

 

Naming Other Pages

As a rule of thumb, do not use any spaces in your web page names.  You can use a hyphen or an underscore, but never leave a space.

Video-Tutorials.html  is correct.

VideoTutorials.html  is correct.

Video Tutorials.html   is not correct. 

The browser will ad a 20% where the space occurs.
