In order to start creating your first page you will need what is called and HTML editor. HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is nothing more than lines of ordinary text that tells a web browser how to format your web page. All the text HTML text is placed between brackets. All the text that is between brackets is not visible your web page.
Not all that long ago creating web pages in a text editor was seen as the best way to create a web page because the editor had would use only the necessary codes that were required for the page to be displayed properly in a web browser.
Now web design programs such as Dreamweaver allow you to create solid codes and view what your page looks like while you create it. Less time is spent on finding errors in your script allowing you to become more productive. For example, in Dreamweaver CS4 all files associated with your pages will open together with the HTML file you choose to open. As soon as you click on a certain area of the page the CSS section associated with that particular area show up in a side bar. This makes it easy to access and edit and modify your CSS file from inside your HTML file. No longer do you have to go and find yourCSS file, open it, find the area you need to change, change it, and go back to editing your HTML script.
There are a number of HTML editors that you could use. Some of them are free and others have a nice price tag attached to them. Before you buy an HTML editor, why not start by using a free one. Perhaps for your purposes the free one will work just fine.
A free HTML editor that I have used in the past is Evrsoft First Page. This WYSIWYG editor works well and I have been very happy with it. Clicking on the link will bring you to the Evrsoft site where you can download the editor and install it on your computer. Although you will be able to work more productively DreamWeaver CS4, Evrsoft First Page has all the tools you need to create your first web pages.

I would argue that Dreamweaver is the best WYSIWYG HTML editor on the market.
