There are lots of web services that provide a free website thats yours to customize. You could learn HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language), which is the basic code for a lot of websites nowadays, and if you want to improve the look of your site, then you could learn CSS and Java coding as well.

If you aren't very savvy with HTML and codes, then you can use software like Macromedia Dreamweaver, Page Maker and Quark. Voda Host has its own website software that works a little like Microsoft office, making it easier for most people to customize their site. You could also get some image software to make your icons and site logo. Adobe Photoshop and Corel Paintshop Pro are good choices.

Then you need to get another website to host yours, here are some ideas:

Your choice really depends on what kind of website you want to build. If you want one with lots of pictures, or an online photo album, choose sites like piczo: http://www.piczo.com

If you want a blog/diary site, then go to sites such as: Blogspot - http://www.blogspot.com and Xanga- http://www.xanga.com

If you want to make a real website with a combination of all of these, plus a series of webpages (let's say, you're making a site on how to care for dogs...) you can use web services like these:

(For free sites:)
*Geocities- http://geocities.yahoo.com
*Bravenet- http://www.bravehost.com
*Webmania- http://www.webmania.co.za
*Tripod- http://www.tripod.com
*Angelfire- http://www.angelfire.com
*FreeWebs- http://www.freewebs.com

(For paid sites:)
*VodaHost- http://www.vodahost.com
*Reason8- http://www.reason8.com

(For your own domain name: e.g. www.your-site-name.com)
*Dot.tk- http://www.dot.tk (Free)
*CJB.net- http://www.cjb.net (Free)
*Hosting Dude- http://www.hostingdude.com (paid)
*Go Daddy- http://www.godaddy.com (paid)

and lotz more are available on the web. Be careful though, free websites are ad-supported and have many annoying banners and advertisments that could drive a customer away. If you get a paid service though, you get more features, and usually no ads.

But the best advice in building a website is to plan. Many people spend a lot of effort, time and sweat building without planning and it can cost them so much more than what it might have been had they prepared. Be sure that you know exactly what you want in your website, before actually building it.
