How do you go about making a website page for free?

[asu_lady_indians_fan]

I'm not talking about MySpace or Facebook. I'm talking about a website on the net that I can go to, sign up with, and make a free website page with. A website page that I can use HTML codes on and everything. Does anyone have any suggestions or does anyone have their own website that they made for free?

Generally, you won't find free web hosting services, unless they place ads on your page.

You can sign up at blogspot.com and create a blog (just like a website, but usually updated more frequently, like a journal).

You can use HTML to edit your own page(s), and it's free.

good question. i need this also but i don't know.

You could always set up your own webserver by simply loading the appropriate software on your pc.

See http://www.apache.org for the free webserver software. Once it's installed and running, build your web pages in the apache/htdocs directory.

If you want your own domain name, I recommend going to http://www.dyndns.org.

Have fun!

If you are a true novice and don't want to spend much time learning how to make a site, I would suggest the current super-popular MySpace. You can quickly get your information up for all your friends to see.

If you are interested in something more, but still fairly simple try GeoCities or Yahoo.

If you are willing to learn HTML I would suggest ATSPACE.COM. You can create a website for FREE up to 50MBs in size. I have two websites through them and the uptime is great. NO ADS, NO BANNERS. You'll need an ftp program to upload your stuff. There's a good free one for personal use called "FTP Explorer". Of course you'll either need to learn HTML or use one of the WYSIWYG programs like FrontPage or DreamWeaver to actually design your site. e-mail me if you need some help...

If you want your own domain and have it hosted, I suggest ReadyHosting. You get 1GB of space unlimted e-mail accounts, FTP access and domain name registration all for $99 a year.

Web hosting site (FREE):
http://www.atspace.com
Web hosting site (COST):
http://www.readyhosting.com
FTP Explorer site:

A couple of my websites:
Pioneer Baseball Website (ReadyHosting - Cost)
http://www.pioneerbaseball.org
My Son's Travel Team's Website (ATSpace.com - FREE)
http://tricountytitans.atspace
Family Website (ATSpace.com - FREE)

If you have broadband, some of the providers let you have a personal webspace.

If you're talking about having a domain, and having it hosted on a server, these are not free services.

If you really want to do it right, you'll probably want to start first by choosing the right host. Dealing with the changes later, when you find yourself at wits end can be a nightmare.

I'd suggest http://balboatech.com/

There is a free plan being offered right now - but you'll probably want your own domain name too, which is the way to go, but I don't think you'll find those for free any more.

Once you have a good LAMP (linux apache mysql php) hosting environment with email and all the other goodies - then you can worry about getting a page on it. There are sooooooooooooooooooooooo many options for soooooooooo many price ranges. Ultimately a real designer is the way to go. Usually people use those free web page builders and realize it's more of an embarrasment than anything else so they end up having to learn how to do it themselves or just paying someone for a little work.

Although with balboatech you will get some CMS (content management system) options that come with the hosting, you can install them from the control panel and get to work right away.
