Been thinking of making a website, but have some questions.

Yeah, I have been thinking of having a website for some time.
But I was wondering what is the best way to do it.
I see different rates out there and some mention of free ones.
Can anyone recommend a good one at a very low price or even free?
If free, what strings will come with it, if any?


I can make can create and modify html documents/files quite easily in MS Frontpage. I guess I just have to put it up in cyberspace rather than just saved to my D:\ E:\ F:\ ect.

So this one site has a fee of $8.95/year:
http://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/defaul...isc=gooe013ad4

I found that with a quick google search.
Any comments on that one, or is there a better one out there?
I just know the price seems attractive to me ($8.95).


Any helpful comments welcome.

The biggest thing to consider with free hosting is they limit size. If you can find places to hotlink images, photos, etc. then that isn't a very bad idea.

The nice thing about pay hosting is that you can usually choose a domain name like www.tonyisthecoolest.com or whatever fits your fancy. That is worth a few bucks a year to me.

What type of site are you wanting to make?

Thanks for that reply.
Well, I was thinking of making a site about my bike, painting stuff, what I am into, a little car stuff too, and maybe have an online resume....who knows.

I just think that everyone should be able to know how to put up a website. Sort of like everyone should be able to know how to use a computer.

I have wanted one for quite some time, but I guess just not really enough to persue it. So how much are we talking in $/year or $/month?

See, I do have a photobucket.com account, and from having that, I just want to be able to expand and have a whole site, with more than just image hosting (what I use photobucket for).
I guess I could use photobucket for the pic hosting.
I don't plan on having huge files on there at all.

Godaddy looks to be an ok place to register and host.

Let me know what you decide to go with.
