Need help with starrting a Web Site

[Throntar]

Although people ping on it quite a bit...Microsoft's FrontPage is a pretty good tool for beginners and most intermediate users. You just have to be careful about using too many of the advance functions.

However, I agree...DreamWeaver takes first place in my book. But remember that Dreamweaver can be a little difficult to use for beginners as it does not offer as much "hand-holding" (and I mean that in a good way) as FrontPage does.

Now where did I leave that doughnut?!

What are the best free sites in starting a website and the ones that give you the most space

Unlimited space but files can only be 500 kb, great for graphics and info sites.

http://graphicbox.co.uk
Free, 20 mb and no ads although they give you 5 more mbs if you disply their banner.

Please don't bother with Geocities or Xoom, they just suck... harder than a nuclear vaccum cleaner, I never even bother to go to sites hosted their. and if you sign up with Xomm they clog up your mailbox, up to 5 ads a day...its freaky!

www.worldzone.net is easily the best free webhost...it is also the best paying webhost I have found. Only $36 a year.

The ads on Worldzone are bottom in-line based so they do not take away from your site(add afew
tags to mae the ads seperated from your content. You can also pay $12 a year to have no ads.

if you want a good domain registrar www.directnic.com has $15 dollar a year domains.

If you want to learn on something simple try www.angelfire.com or www.geocities.com. Doesn't cost anything and you can learn HTML basics.

Geocities is pretty limited, though.

Well just to add there's tripod too, exactly the same as Angelfire (both owned by Lycos) but that gives you a cgi-bin directory too. This might well come in useful when you become proficient with building webpages and want to add scripts.

learning html is a plus,

here are the website designing programs I use:

Microsoft FrontPage 2000
FrontPage Express (you'll find it under Internet Explorer program)
Microsoft Publisher

my all-time favorite website host is tripod (but I hate the pop-ups)
and others: geocities.yahoo.com and http://angelfire.lycos.com/

best of luck
