Answer 1

1) Determine the objective of your website.here for you its going be on business
2) Once you decide what you want to make it on decide what all you are going to put up
3) Once you are sure about what all you are going to put up (eg what pics,what text ..what scripts will you be using and all)..search for a good free web host which supports these features (Features such as a ftp client which will allow you to upload your pics,supports the kind of scripting you want like flash,javascript,cgi etc..)

some good ones are geocties.com,lycos.com,
bravenet.com,pages.google.com( you will need a gmail id for google pages )

4) Lot of these free web hosts provide website builders which have predefined templates to allow you create a decent website easily and quickly..if you are satisfied with that..well and good..but if you want some more customization then I suggest you get a free WYSIWYG HTML editor such as NVU ..(if you have microsoft frontpage already well and good..its quite good)..

5) Using the editor you can easily create a website ..learning a bit of HTML to improve the site appearance wont harm anything..
6) If you really want to spice up your website then i suggest you can implement some javascript ...you can learn it and do it or download the scripts from the net and put it on your site..here are some sites which have a lot of good scripts with various functionalities

1) http://www.javascriptkit.com/
2) http://www.a1javascripts.com/
3)http://www.java-scripts.net/

4) http://www.javafile.com/

Happy building

Answer 2

I find that http://www.w3schools.com and http://www.thesitewizard.com are the best sites for learning the basics of web building. As for hosting, NEVER go with geocities, angelfire, freewebs, or tripod. Use http://www.phpnet.us or http://www.ifastnet.com or any other site listed on http://www.free-webhosts.com

However, if you don't have the time to learn, google has a service, http://www.pages.google.com that allows you to design and build a webpage with no knowledge. Though you need a Gmail account to use it.

Last time I checked http://www.cjb.net also had a similar service.

Answer 3

u could use http://geocites.yahoo.com to start your own free site but it doesnt have its own domain like www.whatever etc..
u need to pay for that.
