3 Ways to Make a Free Webpage Using Microsoft Word (for Macs)

You may of heard of websites that allow you to create free webpages or websites. But, they either require you to know HTML code or choose from a selection of pre-made templates. But, if you have the latest version of Microsoft Word for Macs and are familiar with it then you can create your own personalized webpage for free! And best of all, it's as easy as typing a Word document!
STEPS
METHOD 1 OF 3: CREATING THE WEBPAGE



1
OPEN A WORD DOCUMENT. This where you will add content to your webpage. If you are familiar with the tools for Microsoft Word then this will be a breeze.



2
ADD TEXT BY SELECTING THE COLOR, SIZE, AND FONT, AND TYPE AWAY! Keep in mind the way you see it now is the way everyone else will see it on the web.



3
ADD PICTURES BY GOING TO INSERT>PICTURE>CLIP ART. You can browse through the selection your Clip Art window has, or you can also follow the link at the bottom to Clip Art's website and upload pictures from there. Another way to add pictures is to open iPhoto and drag-and-drop your own photos.



4
HIGHLIGHT ANY TEXT YOU WANT TO HYPERLINK AND GO TO THE HYPERLINK MENU TO LINK IT. Adding hyperlinks is a good way to create an entire website by linking your other Word webpages to phrases like "CLICK HERE".
METHOD 2 OF 3: PUBLISHING THE WEBPAGE



1
TO PUBLISH IT, GO TO FILE>SAVE AS WEBPAGE. A window will pop up allowing it to save. As long as you clicked on SAVE AS WEBPAGE, it will already have the default save format for publishing it to the web.



2
CLICK SAVE, and it will save your document to your designated file . Safari should also open up and take you to your webpage. If not, open it through the file you saved it to.
METHOD 3 OF 3: PROMOTING YOUR NEW WEBPAGE



1
YOU MAY NOTICE THAT ITS URL CODE IS EXTREMELY LONG, SO DIRECTLY ENTERING THE URL OF IT ISN\'T ALWAYS THE QUICKEST OPTION. The best way to promote it is to create links for it on your Blog, Twitter, or Facebook.



2
YOU CAN ALSO TELL YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT IT THROUGH EMAIL. Copy and paste the URL into the hyperlink option.



3
FINISHED.
TIPS
This method might work on PCs also, but it is not guaranteed.
WARNINGS
Do not make viruses and post them with this method.

How to Uninstall Apps on Android: 7 Steps - wikiHow

Is your phone starting to get a little sluggish? Too many apps installed can bring your phone’s speed to a crawl. Follow this guide to remove those unused applications and free up some space on your device.
STEPS
METHOD 1 OF 2: UNINSTALLING THROUGH THE APPLICATION MANAGER
1
OPEN YOUR SETTINGS MENU. You can open this menu by pressing your device’s menu button and selecting Settings, or by tapping the Settings app in the application drawer. Scroll down to “Application manager”, typically located in the Device section.
2
FIND THE APPLICATION YOU WISH TO UNINSTALL. The Application manager is split into three sections: Downloaded, Running, and All. Browse for the app you want to uninstall and tap on it. You can sort by size or by name by pressing the Menu button.
3
SELECT THE APPLICATION. This will open the “App info” screen. From here you can stop the application from running, clear its stored data, or uninstall it. Select Uninstall to remove the app from your phone.
Not all apps can be uninstalled. If an app came preloaded on your phone, chances are it can only be disabled through this menu. To remove apps that came preinstalled, you will need to root your phone.
METHOD 2 OF 2: UNINSTALLING THROUGH ADB
1
ROOT YOUR PHONE. The process is different for every device, but essentially rooting your phone gives you access to system applications and developer tools. The only way you can remove programs that come preinstalled by a carrier is to root your phone first.
2
DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL THE ANDROID SDK. The SDK (Software Developer Kit) runs on your computer. You can get the Android SDK directly from Google. This program will give you command line access to your device when it is connected to your computer.
3
CONNECT YOUR ROOTED PHONE TO YOUR COMPUTER. Turn on USB debugging mode for your device. To do this, open the Settings, then scroll down to the System section. Tap “Develop options” and slide the switch at the top to ON. Scroll down and check the box next to “USB debugging.”
4
FIND THE APP TO UNINSTALL. Open up ADB and enter the following commands:
adb shell
cd system/app
This will list all of the applications installed on your phone. Find the one that you want to remove and type:
rm appname.apk
reboot
This will uninstall the application and reboot the phone to complete the process.
WARNINGS
Be careful when uninstalling applications from the ADB terminal. If you remove applications necessary for your device’s operation, you may render the device inoperable. Always research the apps you are going to delete.
