The staging area vs. the web server -- Defining your site -- Which folders you can access -- Check in and check out

   

Folder structure and file location:
Respecting the established site architecture -- Using the convention of "index.html" -- Public server vs. Staffweb

   
Creating your web page:
Templates -- Ready-made graphics in Assets folder -- Absolute vs. Relative links -- CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)
   
Saving and naming your web page:
File extensions: htm and html -- Proper naming of PDF files
