Sure, first get free hosting at http://www.hostiz.com . They offer the best services (no ads, 150 MB space). Do you know HTML? You can use Microsoft Office FrontPage to build your site but still you should know a little. \nDon't use those "buiding-tools" web-sites, the final product always sucks.\nIf you need help, specify your email at details and I'll contact you. I'll try to help as much as time allows me (I'm working on some of my projects now).\nGood luck!

Kids need supervision on the Internet just as they do when playing at the playground. Here are some things you can do:\n\nSet up your computer in a high-traffic location in your home so anyone passing by can see the kind of content is being viewed.\n\nSpend time with your kids teaching them how properly to use the computer. If they're young and you want to strictly limit the places they can go, put all of the sites you allow in the Favorites section.\n\nInstall a filter system. I highly recommend Bsafe.com.\n\nIt's a battlefield out there. We parents need all the help we can get.

I assume you want to design your own pages. When you are learning to do this, start with something very simple (perhaps a short piece of text). The practise page can easily be deleted later.\nYou will need to gradually become familiar with the format of a page of HTML - messing about with the HTML of your practise page will help and you can do this directly using the Geocities HTML editor.\n1. Create a VERY simple page with a text editor (perhaps 'Notepad' or 'Word').\n2. From the 'File' menu, choose 'Save As' and select HTML. Give your file a name (e.g. test1) and save it to somewhere you can find it again ('My Documents') perhaps.\n3. Log in to your Geocities website, select the Advanced HTML editor, find the link that asks 'Upload?' and click it.\n4. You will be able to upload five files at a time though of course you have only created one so far. Click where it says 'Browse' at the end of the first box and find the file you have just created.\n5. Upload the file.\n6. You can now use the editor to preview your new page, edit it, and generally mess about with the HTML code.\n7. Try making a page with two similar chunks of text in different formats (colour, size, etc.) and see how the HTML differs.\n8. If you want to use pictures too on a page don't forget to upload the picture to the site! Again use a SIMPLE graphic first. Notice how hyperlinks are used to connect (link) your page with the graphic.\n9. Learn how to use hyperlinks to connect all the pages in you website together.\n10. Experiment, investigate, have fun!

I recently was approached by a friend of a friend to produce them a modelling website.  I said yes.\n\nWhat i didn't tell them was i had never done a web-page before!!  Well I downloaded a program called coffeecup that gives you fairly clean code (compared to Frontpage), and used its visual editor to start.  I then looked at the code it had produced to see what was going on.  After also looking up different HTML tags and how to do tables and such, it was much easier and i was now able to write HTML without using the visual editor.\n\nI then had to tackle PHP to do a few bits.  I used these websites to get what i wanted.\n\nhttp://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/index.phtml/fid/51\nhttp://www.zend.com/php/index.php\nhttp://www.devtek.org/tutorials/image_gallery.php\nhttp://www.webdeveloper.com/\n\nAnyway i went from knowing nothing to producing a website, with changing images, a web based contact form and a shopping cart (short list) in about 2 weeks of on and off looking at it after work.\n\nIt is more than possible to learn to do web design in short amounts of time.  Obviously for more complex features it just takes longer, but i have found all information available on the web that i need.  Certainly no need for a 10,000 course.  Also simply look at the source for websites to see what others are doing.\n\nGet a project to work on, research the web and do it!\n\nGood luck and enjoy.\n\nFor my small triumph, visit http://www.seenmodels.com

Yes, I know how to make a web site.  There are several ways to make them.  Web pages are created in Hypertext Markup Language or HTML.  There are other languages used on websites but this is the best one for beginners. \nIt is also possible to make websites using software such as Microsoft Word, Microsoft Frontpage.  There are a lot of different WYSIWYG HTML editors.  You can get them at download.com.  Also http://www.zohowriter.com creates files in HTML.\nAlso you can use http://www.openoffice.org/ Open Office to create web sites.\n\nI think the easiest way for a beginner to start a web site is to use the sitebuilder at tripod.\nhttp://www.tripod.lycos.com/  You can sign up for a free account there.  Then you click on sitebuilder.  It is really easy to use. \ngeocities.com also has one.\nGood luck!

Before the children told their friend, the site was mostly adults.\n\nYahoo believes that their numbers for Users is great but does not understand that right now for every 10 adults, there are 90 kids, some as young as 8 or 9 (the limit is 13).\n\nI'm 58 and have been here since last December when it started.

This is a real issue to me at the moment. My ten year old, and all her friends, have been making their own websites, (or 'webbies'), as they call them. They all use this new 'language'. I asked my daughter to try not to - she's not the best speller to start with. Anyway, she's been watching me on Answers, and last night she said she was going to design her own Answers page on her webby. I've just looked at it. I quote:\n\n"Evr sin dat yahoo Ansers? well im makin mi own. if u want 2 ask a question, den put ur question an put ur nic name. if u want to anser a question, den put 2 hooevers question ur anserin, den anser da question den put ur nic name."\n\nWhat the hell is that all about? I shall be having a word when she gets home from school!

There is Geocities (free to Yahoo members) and ... well ... a multitude of free webspaces out there!\n\nTo actually MAKE a web page, Geocities do have a handy web page creation wizard which will make you a basic web page with very little knowledge or effort.  More than that and you will need a web publishing software like Front Page (from Microsoft), Front Page Express (which I think you can still download free), Mozilla's Composer (free with the Mozilla browser) - a tutorial here: http://www.thesitewizard.com/gettingstarted/mozillacomposer1.shtml\n\nOtherwise there is loads of information, tutorials and stuff out there on the web.  Start by asking Google about "create your own website" ... here's one of the results: http://cheap-webdesign.com/

I'm in agreement with Drew here.\n\nIt's not something you just up and decide to do without any previous knowledge of webdesign.\n\nHowever, let me try to be of some help\n\n1) You need to know a great programming language.  I built my dating site in ASP.NET.  You can use PHP or ASP, it's a matter of personal choice.\n\n2) Find a good hosting site that will allow a lot of bandwidth.  I use jodohost.com\n\n3) Think up a great name for the site and register it as the domain name.  It needs to be something catchy and people will remember.\n\n4) It needs to be designed so that people can use a trial version for like 3 days or something.  This way you can encourage new users.\n\n5) Build multiple plans that people can choose from for payment options.  Everyone has their own budget so tailor to multiple budgets.\n\n6) Keep it simple and not too cluttered with crap.  \n\n7) Great features are chatting, profiles, instant messaging, forums, compatability tests, newsletters, featured profiles, the ability to block messages by user, ability to add video, ability to add sound.\n\n8) Advertise locally first.  My site was tailored towards college students so I made sure that the local colleges were plastered with flyers (not neccessarily ethical, but hey...).\n\n9) Offer perks to new users such as unlimited use for 1 month for free, or free features such as chatting if they sign up by a certain time period.\n\n10) Network with other sites that work with dating.  Create a banner rotation system and offer to work with online coupons, flower sites, hotel sites, etc.  SOmething that will drive traffic to you from other sites.\n\n11) Advertise online everywhere.  Myspace, Bolt, Bolt2, Match.com, etc.\n\n12) Make sure it's safe for people under 18 (if you allow them to use the service).  Parents don't want their 16yr old son looking at nudity.  The more people that can use your site, will use it.  \n\nLook at other top dating sites out there (match.com) and see what they do.  take from their ideas.

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.\n\nIf you are interested in something more, but still fairly simple try GeoCities or Yahoo.\n\nIf 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. 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. If you need some help, e-mail me...\n\nIf 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.\n\nWeb hosting site (FREE):\nhttp://www.atspace.com\nWeb hosting site (COST):\nhttp://www.readyhosting.com\nFTP Explorer site:\nhttp://www.ftpx.com\n\nA couple of my websites:\nPioneer Baseball Website\nhttp://www.pioneerbaseball.org\nMy Son's Travel Team's Website\nhttp://tricountytitans.atspace\nFamily Website\nhttp://tim8w.atspace.com

The best and easiest way for a "beginner" is to do it using Geocities. There are templates and easy to use pre-written code. See the link below.

Try Lissa Explains. The url is: http://lissaexplains.com . She explains html clearly that even a 9 year old can easily understand it. :)\n\nYou can also try Youtube: http://youtube.com . There are so many videos there so just search for the video that you like. The best thing is that they provide the video code already so that you can use it on myspace! :)

I can help you there.\n\nKeep your website colorful -- Easy on the eyes.\n\nLayout your content to it's convenient to the visitor\n\nMake sure any page can be visited from the main page of the site within 3 clicks.  Remember to always consider the 3-click rule\n\nMake sure your site takes no longer than 10 seconds to load.  Odds are if you have a page that takes any longer to load, the visitor will go off and look somewhere else.\n\nHave unique content\n\nKeep your website organized\n\nMake sure to have your website <title> on your pages

If I understand your question, you are asking what program to use and how to create a web site...\n\nRecommend that you go to geocities.com (a site run by Yahoo) and sign up for one of their free web pages.  They have an online program that helps you step by step to get a web site up and running.  Once have the a working site, you can play around with it, read throught their online tutuorials, and learn some HTML programming to improve the site.  If you work at it a bit, it is not hard to learn how to create web sites.  In a few weeks you will be able to create one without having to use their program to help you.

Use HTML to create a basic page and host it on a Server.\nvisit www.w3schools.com for excellent tutorial.

how much do you want to do?\nto set up a website on a host like your aols, geocities and your myspaces is easy pick what option you want type of stuff.\nor \nyou could use a much more customizable program to create the website with a website making tool like front page and either have it hosted like throught the aforementioned hosts or buy yerself a domain.\nor\nyou could learn html so that you write your own website from scratch.  learing dhtml/css/javascript and others are helpfull for making a nice website. then there is the buying a domain or having it hosted options again.\nor\nyou can host the server yerself.  so you'd set up a computer with website hosting capabilities then write up the website (or again front page it) then register your ip with one of them dns servers and you'd prolly want to pay for a nice url.

In the head section of your html code, put in some meta tags, for example:\n\n<html>\n<head>\n<title>Yahoo Games</title>\n\n<META name="description" content="Click here to play various games on Yahoo.">\n\n<META name="keywords" content="Yahoo, kids, games, online, friendly, fun">\n\n</head>\n<body>\n<p>Welcome To Yahoo Kid Games!</P>\n</body>\n</html>\n\n\nYou may also need to make a 'Robots.txt' file also, since a lot of search engines requires you to have a robots.txt file before they will scan your website.
