I have gotten a number of requests lately to know about the best online courses for learning HTML, CSS, and other web design topics. While it is tempting to simply point people at the free classes I offer there are a lot of other options out there - including degree and certification courses from accredited universities. But are they any good? If you have taken any online courses in web design, I would love to know about your experiences! Thanks for taking the time to write a review.

ther than paying tuition somewhere, I would suggest just watching online video tutorials and creating your own little websites for practice. I have found videos much easier to focus on and learn from (since they seem to go faster than i can read lol) rather than reading a book, although i still read books about various technologies on some more advanced topics. If you’re more interested in doing web development, you can watch several free video series on Nettuts in javascript, jquery, and php, along with other miscellaneous web development topics. You could also pay for a monthly subscription to lynda.com and watch video tutorials on Web Design, Photoshop, and several web development technologies.
From my experience, I took a small certificate program during my undergrad and it gave me the fundamentals in web development, but that definitely wasn’t enough to get me a job in the field. After that over the next year and half, I watched online tutorials, read books, and discovered industry practices which helped me get job offers now in web development. Some of the things that i wasn’t taught in school included MVC frameworks, JS libraries, and object oriented programming.
The simplest way is to search for web designing particular topic videos on video sharing sites. Reading something and looking at the videos makes a huge difference. You’ll grasp things much faster when watching a video rather than just reading some steps. There are wide range of videos on css, htm, javascript, wordpress design and much more.
