Creating a website has got the following elements\n\nDomain name: This is the address that any person has to enter in browser to reach your website. if you want your site name only followed by .com or .net or .org etc(like yourname.com or yourcompanyname.org) you will have to register the domain name from an accredited registrar like http://www.godaddy.com . This will cost around $10 for 1 year registration and it varies depending on the registrar. If you don't want to spend on domain, then there are free subdomain providers like http://netfirms.com , http://50webs.com , which can give you website addresses like http://yourname.50webs.com or http://yourname.netfirms.com . Usually these free subdomain providers also provide free web space also\n\nWeb space : Having a domain name is only first part and you need some webspace in some webserver, where you will actually upload the files of your website. As I mentioned free subdomain providers usually give free webspace assosiated with the subdomain they provide. But in the case of registering your own domain, then you may have to purchase webspace from a webhosting provider. After purchasing webspace you have to link your webspace with domain from the control panel provided by your domain registrar. Most domain registrar like http://www.godaddy.com has also provide hosting packages also.\n\nWeb pages designing: This is the actual designing of the files that will be put in your webspace. Either you can learn html to create web pages or use programs like microsoft frontpage to design the html pages. After you create the webpages of your site in your computer, you have to upload them to the webspace using an FTP program. Your webspace provider will be giving you the ftp address, user name and password for doing ftp to your webspace.

Here's the quick and easy explanation;\n\nA domain name, which is what you say you bought, is simply the internet address people will use to find your site online. My domain name for my online hosting company is http://www.mxdwebservice.com. With this information a person can simply type the name into a browser window and find my site. :)\n\nA web hosting company is a company that owns and maintains servers where they store all the files of a persons web site. For everything you read and/or hear about web hosting, it's really just a large self storage company for electronic data. You pay them a fee and they will house your web site files and point your new, shiny domain name to the files residing on their servers for you so all the happy, shiny surfers can find you. Unfortunately, you still have to actually provide the webpages they will store and display to the public for you....\n\nThats where a web designer comes in. This one is an easy one, web designers are exactly what they sound like...they design web pages and web sites for a fee.\n\nIt is the combonation of all three services that make up your average web page or site.\n\nMy own company, MXD Web Services, offers all three services for very reasonable pricing. Domain names are free with the purchase of any hosting plan and plans start at only $5.77/mo...thats less than $70 for the year! We also offer professional web design, with basic rates starting at only $100/page...of course this is negotiable depending on what your site needs are. :)\n\nFor more information about Domain Names, Web Hosting or Web Design go to http://www.mxdwebservice.com where you will find tons of free information about running a successful site!\n\nI hope I was of some help!\n\nGood Luck!

Having a site is different from having a domain. To have a site you must having hosting, or computer space set aside to save the information from your site. This hosting should have come with at least some limited email functions. You should contact whoever did your website and get them to set up your email. Don't let them over charge you for this at all. At the very least one email address with limited space should be fine and should be free. Anymore than a few email addresses with great space may cost you, but I would guess no more than around 10$ a month.

Well, if you wanted to have your own site and eventually a domain name, you should look into getting web hosting and using a shopping cart system.  My dad uses PayPal, which is free but charges a transaction fee.  This takes money from each item you sell.  Google offers a service like this too.  There are plenty of shopping cart scripts though, if you find a web host that gives you a MySQL database and offers PHP so that you can install it.  Below I added a link to a list of them.  As for hosting, it depends on how much you want to spend or if you want to start off with a free site.  I recommend searching for this yourself but I have added links two directories I find helpful to speed up the process.

In the example above, "yoursever" is your website.  For example, if you own billybob123.com, you would replace "yourserver" with "billybob123.com" in the above example, so it would look like http://billybob123.com/catalog/inst..."  Don't try to click on that link, it won't go anywhere.  :-)\n\nI think the above example is assuming you do have your own domain.  I'm not sure what to do if you're using something like geocities or your ISP's personal webspace.  If the program name indicates what it does, you might not be able to.  If you adminster a domain, and need help, whoever gives you tech support should be able to help.  If you don't....  I don't know what to tell you, but I do wish you luck!

You have to find a "Who Is" list on godaddy, etc. and try to purchase it from the current owner. Unfortunately, there are so many domain pirates out there.

Most webhosting providers will give you the domain name for free if you sign up for 1 year. So pick a good hosting provider and just use them.

Sorry to dissapoint you but there's no such thing.  Every domain name registration costs money and no-one is going to pay so that you can register your own domain name.\n\nEven if you accept that you're not getting your own domain name you're asking an awful lot.  A lot of free sites are HTML only and a lot don't offer 55MB webspace.  In most cases the bandwidth wouldn't be a problem but 500MB is a tiny amount of bandwidth - it's about 15MB a day; if you're talking 500MB a day then that's going to eliminate a lot of free hosts.\n\nHere's a reply I gave to a similar question...\n\nThere's several places you can get a free website including from Yahoo (their service is called Geocities).\n\nIf you're serious about creating a website and want one that looks professional then I wouldn't consider a free site, there are many paid for sites that need only cost you a few dollars a month.\n\nHere's some of the things to consider about free sites...\n\n-- 1 --\nYou're often restricted in the type of files you can have, some sites don't allow MP3's or video files for example.\n\n-- 2 --\nThere's usually a bandwidth limit (this is the amount of data that's downloaded).  It normally doesn't take long to reach the bandwidth limit and when this happens the site becomes unavailable - you've probably come across such sites yourself.  The bandwidth limit is often hourly and also monthly.  If you hit your hourly limit your site will be down for about an hour but if you hit your monthly limit if could be down for days or even weeks.\n\n-- 3 --\nMost free sites have a limit to the amount of space you have to store your site.  Large files such as music and video will very quickly fill the space.  Simple text pages don't use much space but when you start adding a few graphics this can soon add up.\n\n-- 4 --\nThere's rarely any technical support with free sites other than user forums.  If something goes wrong it's up to you to sort it out.\n\n-- 5 --\nSome copmpanies that provide free sites are 'here today and gone tomorrow' - just what you need if you've spent ages designing a nice site.  Others are initially free but then state you have to pay or your site will be deleted.  To avoid this stick with the well known and established names such as Tripod/Lycos and Yahoo/Geocities.\n\n-- 6 --\nFree sites are often limited in what you can do, a lot won't support PSP or MySql, some don't even support Java.  Could mean that features such as forums, blogs, guestbooks etc aren't possible on your site.\n\n-- 7 --\nA free site has to pay for itself somehow, no company is going to give away webspace without getting something in return.  One common practice is to place adverts on your site.  Sometimes these ads are themed and related to your site but other times they're completely unrelated.\n\n-- 8 --\nOften the site isn't transferable except to a paid for service provided by the same company.  This can be a serious problem if your site becomes popular and you need to move it somewhere that can accomodate your growing needs.\n\n-- 9 --\nOften any extras are hugely expensive, if for example you want to buy more data transfer (bandwidth) you could easily be paying $1 per GB.  It might not sound a lot but if you're also paying for more web storage space and access to certain tools it will work out far more expensive than having a paid-for site.\n\n-- 10 --\nYou won't get your own domain name so instead of having xyzcompany.com you'll have something like freewebhostingcompany/xyzcompany.com.\n\n-- FREE SITES --\nIf you still want a free website then this page here... http://www.free-webhosts.com/search-webhosts.php is an excellent resource as it compares no less than 545 different free webhosts complete with reviews and user comments for each one.\n\nHere's some links to the 4 most popular free webhosts...\n\nLycos Tripod (CNet

NO. You do not have to pay for a domain.  If you have a server, you can just set it up to be a domain controller. Then you will have your own domain.\n\nHowever, if you mean you want an INTERNET domain (which is an entirely different thing), then yes. You have to pay Internic to register the domain name and get a static IP address from your ISP.
