Building your html resume is not as difficult as it sounds. HTML is relatively easy to understand and there are lots of very cheap software programmes available to help you. You can use tables, bold, italics in the HTML version of your resume, just like in your printable version. The same rules for resume building apply - keep it short. However, in an online resume you do not have space limitations - you can be creative and create a non-standard resume where each section has links to more details on that section.
