Begin your text like this:
You need to plan your website carefully before you go ahead and create it. There are three stages to the planning process:
Problem-solving

Websites
Weather Reports
Several weather-related sites can give you up-to-the-minute weather reports and precipitation radar for your city or local region or for an area in which you’ll be travelling. You’ll also find extended forecasts. Some weather sites provide safety tips for dealing with severe weather (www.weather.com).
Comic Strips
Everyone needs a laugh from time to time, and few things can put a smile on your face more quickly than a classic comic strip. You can check out dozens of your favourite comics and, in some cases, even send a comic strip to a friend (www. unitedmedia.com, www.uexpress.com).
Maps
Websites can give you detailed street maps for major cities, or they can give you a map of Interstate highways. Some sites can help you find a particular address or suggest the best method of travel to your destination. You can also print maps at many websites (www.mapblast.com).
Travel Research
Whether you’re looking for the best airline and hotel fares or researching the best travel destinations, the Web can help. Several websites also offer tips for travelling by aeroplane or with small children. Some allow you to book train tickets (www.expedia.com, www.concierge.com, www.thetrainline.co.uk).
Neon City
If you have a webpage that’s looking a little dull, you might want to add some neon signs, word or tubes. Neon City produces a variety of cool neon clipart that you are free to use on your personal webpage so long as you link to the page you got the design from (www.neoncity.co.uk).
Exercise information
If your current exercise program doesn’t seem to be working, consult the Web. While Web surfing doesn’t quality as exercise, you can use the Web to find information on an exercise program you’ll enjoy. Some websites also help to track your progress (www.fitnesslink.com, www.runnersworld.com).
