It's not all that tough. You need to determine where you want it hosted. The cheapest and most personal would be your own ISP.
There are a number of places on the web that give you free space. Geocities.com comes to mind.
To keep the difficulties of creating the page(s), you can use Netscape (free) in the composer mode to generate the HTML code you need automatically.
It allows you to input the text, pictures and links as easily as if working in Word.
If you also want your own domain name, you can get that most inexpensively at https://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/offers/cross_sell.asp?se=%2B&ci=6018 (about $7.00 to $9.00/yr) and that includes 100 email forwarders per domain. Hosting service from $3.19/mth.
At that point your site, based on a unique domain name, will look totally professional.
If there is a website you would like to clone, you can copy and paste that into Netscape and have it without extra work. Only the text will have to be altered

1) you can learn HTML, the language used to build websites. 2) you can buy software that builds websites. 3) most website hosting companies offer this software free as part of the service.

When talking about WEBSITE Making, there are three things
1. Domain ie. www.YOURNAME.com
2. Hosting some place to host your site for 24 hours online
3. Webpages THE actual pages
============
If you have Domain, and hosting then easy way is to install www.Wordpress.org script and ENJOY! There are thousands of Templates freely available online.
ABSOULUTELY FREE. NO hidden costs at all.
But if you have not domain and not hosting but want to have one websit.
Then www.Blogger.com is great way to start for you , it is from google.
They provide you domain i.e. www.YOU.blogspot.com
They host your pages
They provide you easy to install templates and ......
and you can also earn from it by placeing adsense on them.
Every thing is FREE. and easy explained in detail here

First you must have hosting to get on the web.
The cheapest I've seen is $4.95/mo that uses about anything ie. cgi, php, jsp, mysql, etc. with free domain name and free set up. I like this part, cause I like to know what I pay ahead of time. I've used these guys a bunch, and I would only say good things about them.

Free hosting on www.tripod.com. They also help you build.
You could also get a Myspace like everyone else in the world.

For experts:
1) Buy a domain name (www.dotster.com, www.modhost.com, ...);
2) Find a host for your web site (www.dotster.com, www.modhost.com, ...);
3) Use a tool to create your web site (MS Frontpage, Macromedia Dreamweaver, etc.);
4) Upload your pages to your host.
Tadah!
For beginners:
1) Use Geocities (http://geocities.yahoo.com/)

you can use Microsoft FrontPage, included in microsoft office, to make your page and convert it to html. you also need to buy a domain (your site address).

why don't you try Myspace first to get to know how to use HTML.
