3.3 Use templates

Before start creating your web site, think about what your site should look like. If you need, use a pencil and paper and draw a sketch.

Then create a template page, i.e. a page with the general structure of your site, with all the necessary formatting tables, pictures, navigation links, images and other elements you may think about.

Try to set the definitive web site layout before starting the page content edition process.

Then, create your pages by copying your template page.

Finally write all the page specific content in all the pages.

This way you may save a lot of work. It's better to lose some time setting up a solid template than have to re-edit all your pages just because you forget to put something in the template.
