In terms of design on the web, I find the majority of it centres around typography. If you can make a page look good with black text on a white background, you're most of the way to being a strong web designer.

Read books, look at typographical hierarchy libraries, read their source code, experiment. Most importantly, keep your eyes open! You're looking at web typography on a daily basis, so pay attention to it. Whenever you see typography that you like, try to deconstruct it. What do you like about it? Why does it work? How could you break it, and why? Feed this back into your experimentation. Do this for long enough and you'll find your design skills naturally improving.
