Ever thought of making a website but thought it would take too long or cost too much? Well, that's just not true. You can make a website in under a minute with nothing but basic software [the kind that come with your computer]!
You don't need to spend thousands, hundreds, or even a dollar to create an elegant website. The most advance website developers can create websites by solely using NOTEPAD.EXE. For most users who do not have either the time or the endurance to learn a set of 20 or so tags, there are also web builders that can help you. Some of the popular [but somewhat expensive] programs include Adobe GoLive! and Macromedia DreamWeaver. Both of these have extensive tutorials on how to create certain aspects.
What you need to know if you're using NOTEPAD.EXE is HTML. HTML is a set of tags that is read by the browser to format the layout of the website. You can go beyond this by using CSS [Cascading Style Sheets] and other things such as JavaScript.
If you're using the higher leveled [higher leveled in the sense that it is easier to use] software, they usually have tutorials that can aid you in the process. The more expensive software that are not manufactured specifically for a single company or user usually are well documented or not used at all. Google is a good place to search for tutorials if there is not a resource page with the software.

First you'd need to find hosting. There are plenty of free hosting sites all over the net. Some of them provide online web design software, but if they dont, you'll need your own. There is free software out there, but personally I use Dreamweaver, Fireworks and Flash.

a simple website can be made with a text editor such a word. for better looking sites you need to learn about html and style sheets. for even more functionally complicated sites, you will need to learn a web programming language such as ASP, PHP, ASP.NET or Javascript

Use (free) Netscape in the composer mode. It will generate the HTML code for you
