THE EVOLUTION OF THE FIRST WEBSITE

THE EVOLUTION OF THE FIRST WEBSITE:

I have done my research before I set out to help you, and my sources reveal that Tim Berners-Lee was the person to create the first website design as early as in the 90’s.

To be precise the exact date when the world got its first website is on the 1st of August, 1991.

Almost 26 years have gone by since the first site was launched. Have you ever wondered what was your first website like?

Let me tell you:

This first website has content that described what the World Wide Web is all about and also it contains a few links.

The HTML page was a single-column design, and some inline links were fused in. Don’t know whether the new gen kids like you have ever seen what this resembles?

If you have had the luck to study the history of web designing or how it evolved, you might be aware of the standard structure of HTML pages that is more or less content based with a few tags like the heading, paragraphs and links.

As time passed, newer versions started replacing these and also we had updates like options to include images, tables, graphics and more…

The Web is the property of all and not any single person. So, there should be some way to prevent individuals or organizations from disturbing the built-in ecosystem of the web.

Emergence of the World Wide Web Consortium:

Commonly known as the W3 Consortium, which came to be formed in the year 1994 brought along with it the standardization of the web.

It qualified HTML as the standard for marking up web pages.

As time passed, several changes evolved, and we got table-based designs, followed by design over structure, flash based web designs, Macromedia Shockwave, DHTML, 3DML, CSS-Based designs and what not.
