Definition: Web publishing


Creating a website and placing it on the Web server. A website is a collection of HTML pages with the home page typically named index.html or index.htm. Websites are designed using Web authoring software which provides a graphical layout capability along with hand coding in HTML. Distributing the site requires copying the resulting HTML pages and graphic elements into the appropriate folders on the server. See Web authoring software, content management system and HTML editor.
