If you get the software and create the website, you can always upgrade or change it as many times as you like. Go to www.godaddy.com. THey have cheap rates and give good service. The program I use is Website Complete. All in all, its about $55 to get up and running, not bad.

This site is extremely helpful when you are looking for free webhosting. They have summaries of the services out there and reviews so you can select one very easily without having to sign up and try them all. I chose http://www.100webspace.com for my hosting and have not been disappointed. Their sign up is easy, there are no ads, the control layout is simple, they have all the features I could want, the hosting is stable and fast, and its all free.

I am still looking for good URL redirection, http://www.tk is what I use currently but it is unreliable. Hopefully I will find something better soon.

Microsoft Frontpage has served me fine as an HTML editor. I`m sure your computer either came with it or you can borrow the Microsoft Office suite from someone to get it.

Thank you for the tip. Now they will allow me to make a page and pick a name .....a www.mywebname.com and i can advertise that , people can log onto the site? or do they allow me to make a page and i have to pay for the name. thanks again for the tips

Free hosting companies will host your webpage but it will be at a longer address, usually something like www.hostingcompany.com/yourusername/. If you want a .com, you will have to pay for it, although they really aren`t that expensive. If you choose to go that route, you might want to use the company m23Accord suggested, they seem like a good deal. That is probably your best option unless you are trying to advertise on free or very low cost budget like I am. My detailing gig is only for the summer because I`m going away to school in the fall, so I don`t want to pay all the money to get set up with a domain when I will only benefit for a month. If it were not for this cirumstance I would very seriously consider a paid hosting service like www.godaddy.com.

Your ISP (Internet Service Provider) may also have some space for which you all ready pay for in your monthly billing.

You can create any page on your PC, you donâ€™t need to have web hosting to view ideas you want to try on a page. But if you want one up and running at the same time yeah all the ones suggested above are GTG.
