How do you do web pages?
If you are serious about websites either for personal or your business, don't go to free web hosting as they are usually not reliable and you may end up losing all your hard work. Free web hosts usually put advertisements on your websites and it could be annoying.





If you like to create websites (usually you will end up more than 1 website, I got more than 100 websites in about 6 months' time), go for multiple web hosting services where you could host all your websites in one account.





I would like to suggest following webhosting , they are excellent.

They offer hosting of "unlimited domains" and you will get massive webspace of 300000 MB (300 GB ). They only charge $5.95/month and they offer "a free Domain Name" and installing service called "Fantastico". By using Fantastico, you could create own forum, photo gallery, shopping cart (e-commerce),your own auction site and your own blogs within few seconds. They also offer "Free Website Builder" as well.


Visit the site to check details.

Domains


Following site is quite good to register domains as price is reasonable with free privacy. Some charge about $5/ year just for free privacy.

there are many free web host that have WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editors that come with your site. tripod and angelfire are two that come to mind, just off the top of my head. Tripod comes with pop ups though, and angelfire has banner ads.





It depends a lot on if you just want a web page, or if you want a complete multipage website, what you want it for, and how technical and snazzy you want to get.





You could always download a trial version of Macromedia Dreamweaver to build you web page/site. It is a lot like using MS Word or the likes, when in design mode. There are several places online that you can download website templates and edit them in Dreamweaver.





Then upload to your web host. just make sure you change the links to the site domain. Unless, you take advantage of the ftp feature in Dreamweaver.





Hope that helps some, though I imagine you most likely find it all confusing if you are just starting web-design. I did when I started. I would say the best advice is just get a good HTML reference (you might find some online, just google, or search yahoo) and jump on in.





You might try checking into www.pureportals.com. they even have a shopping cart interface for your site. or you could maybe look into setting up a paypal account.
Reply:You really don't want to go with a free web hosting provider. If you do, you could end up serving your competitors advertisements.





If you just want to hang a sheet out there, you can use a free blogging service like:

As for selecting an actual hosting provider...





You should really spend some time making this decision. Don't just go with the first one you see. Bug them a bit, see how friendly they are before picking one.





Most important of all is getting a separate registrar for your domain name. I use 1and1 for the domain name but I use another provider for the actual host. This way, if I should ever decide to move hosting providers, I can change the settings with 1and1.com and keep my domain name. For the actual web host, I use a VPS. (probably more than you'd need for a small business)





Once you establish your domain name, you don't want to loose it if something goes wrong. Keeping the registrar and hosting provider as two different companies will go a long way toward shielding you from damages.





When picking a hosting provider, you actually want a small one, you'll get friendly service that way. Larger hosts can be reluctant to help you when you get into problems. Since you kept your registrar with a separate company, you get to keep your domain name if this small company goes belly-up for any reason. Friendly service w/out the risks!
