Hi Anuj,

1)Try adding the apex:pagemessages , to find if there is any error. 
<apex:page standardController="Account">
<apex:form >
<apex:pagemessages/>
Name: <apex:inputText value="{!account.Name}"/><br/>

Phone:<apex:inputText value="{!account.Phone}"/><br/>
<apex:commandButton value="Create New account" action="{!Save}"/>
</apex:form>

</apex:page>

2) Run developer console and check the count of records of account before and after clicking the save button if there is increase in number , then your account has been created.  If not , then need to check the debug logs as mentioned by above

Hope this helps.

There is only one required field that is Name. I am using standard controller Account. I have checked the link you have provided, in that they have used <apex:inputField> buut I am using <apex:inputText> but I think this should not be the issue. i am not getting any error also so cant track.

Try using input field instead of input text

INput text needs custom code to map it to SF field
