IONOS Website Guide: website advice for all

A website isn’t just a website – these days, there are countless ways to create an online presence in a way that matches your ex­pec­ta­tions. The ‘Websites’ section of the IONOS Digital Guide offers detailed in­for­ma­tion about creating, managing, and op­ti­miz­ing websites as well as facts and general back­ground in­for­ma­tion on the World Wide Web. For a closer look, you can also explore one of several sub­cat­e­gories about different topics. Here, we present website advice for everyone, from mere en­thu­si­asts to qualified pro­fes­sion­als.

What’s in the IONOS Website Guide?

The ‘Websites’ section is one of six main cat­e­gories in the IONOS Digital Guide. ‘Websites’ is then broken down into four further sub­cat­e­gories: ‘Website creation, ‘Web design’, ‘Web de­vel­op­ment’, and ‘Digital law’. While ‘Website creation’ focuses primarily on the technical aspects of internet sites, ‘Web design’ articles look at the optical makeup of content, in par­tic­u­lar the use of text, images, and re­spon­sive displays through HTML or CSS. ‘Web de­vel­op­ment’ covers the use of scripting languages, like PHP or JavaScript, as well as specific tools for the de­vel­op­ment of internet services. But basic in­for­ma­tion about the standards and trends of website de­vel­op­ment can also be found here. The sub­cat­e­go­ry ‘Digital law’ presents online laws and practices, like image usage rights and privacy policies.

Website advice for beginners, advanced users, and pro­fes­sion­als

The Website Guide serves as an in­for­ma­tion portal for small and medium-sized companies, along with de­vel­op­ers, web designers, tech­nol­o­gy lovers, and general internet en­thu­si­asts. Many articles on the IONOS Digital Guide require little back­ground knowledge, though some are also aimed at more ex­pe­ri­enced users. Beginners can enjoy posts on topics like ‘What exactly is a website?’, ‘The basics for modern web de­vel­op­ment’, or ‘How are websites accessed?’, while more advanced readers can broaden their knowledge of specific topics with com­pre­hen­sive articles and tutorials. So whether you are a novice, an advanced user, or a pro­fes­sion­al: our handy Website Guide has plenty of useful tips and tricks to help you become an expert on the World Wide Web.
