To have your own web site doesn't necessarily require you to pay for it. There are free options everywhere which let you create, store, and publish your web site - entirely FREE. The provider will create a sub-domain specifically as your identification. It may look similar to www.provider/yourname.com and/or //yourname.provider.com. The provider will allocate some space for you as well as control panel so that you will be able to manage your web site.\n\nAdvantage: \n- Free of course!\n- A perfect start for beginner to learn about web development\n\nDisadvantage: \n- Sounds not professional\n- Visitors/friends will know automatically that your site is a free hosting\n- Bombarded with advertisements. (...and lots of it!)\n- Limited expandability\n\nHowever, since you are asking for a specific domain name that needs modification of TLD database (managed by ICANN), you have to pay for it. Some even offer for free (a trick though). Worry not. The domain fee won't hurt your wallet. The fee range from $7-$30/year these days - how much is that going to hurt you?\n\nAdvantage: \n- That unique name belongs to you (ONLY YOU!), \n- Can be transferable shall you wish to subscribe to paid hosting\n- Sounds more professional\n- Fully expandable. You manage your web site\n\nDisadvantage: \n- Need to pay of course!\n\nWhat about hosting? The same goes as above but I do find somewhere in the search engines where you can lease the hosting space for $0.50/month!! An excellent choice for beginners.

I use 1 and 1 internet hosting for my website, ive been with them for two years, starting with the home package at 4.99 a month...it was very good until i needed more bandwidth so moved on to their business package. This gave me 2.5 g webspace and 20gb monthly traffic bandwidth.. As well as this, 1 and 1 give you loads of extras, like statistics, chat channels, newsletter and form tools, database, website builder, dynamic site builders, photo glalery and software worth £400 - which includes frontpage 2003 for web designing.\n\nYou get 3 domains free of charge and can link another 100 domains to the hosting package as well as 300 subdomainds...\n\nEmail is also provided giving you 700 pop 3 email accounts, with virus scanning and spam filters.\n\nIve also found their customer support to be quite brilliant.and for £8.45 a month on this business package yu cant go wrong.\n\nI believe your also interested in shopping carts, which 1and 1 also do, in the form of their e-shop business package at £9.99pm....including:\n\n100 MB web space\nDisplay up to 100 items\n10 Categories\n30+ design templates\nThe Business eShop is an ideal start if you’re just beginning your e-commerce venture. \n\nAlso included \n\n100 MB web space\n10 GB Monthly Traffic included\nOnline administration\nE-mail order confirmation\n\n\nAs for web design, i actually do web designing myself, and quite competitively priced. so if you have an idea of what kind of website your after. and how you want it built, you could give me a shout for a quote...

Well, you'd first have to decide if you're willing to pay for it. If you want your website to have its own name ("GirlsWorld.com), then you'll have to pay atleast $15.00 a month.\n\nIf you want to have a free website, go to www.tripod.com or www.angelfire.com , but if you choose to go to one of these free website hosts, you won't be able to exacly have "GirlsWorld.com" but it could be www.GirlWorld.tripod.com\n\nThese websites can show you how to set up your website, I know tripod gives a nice website guide\n\nI hope I helped!

There are many sites that will give you a website for free.  Geocities is one of them, I would do a search on yahoo for free web sites.  If you want your own domain name yahoo has great rates on those.  I great web hosting company that is reasonably priced is http://www.startlogic.com . They have several different packages to choose from, and have great built in applications for a business context.  Hope that helps, if not you can always email me at jbradley4000@yahoo.com

contact your internet service provider and pay them the required fee for launching a new website through them. it may cost you about 2 pounds every month or so. but before you do all this make sure that you have a website-completed, and that is ready to be launched. for this just don't take into considerations of your own opinion but also of the ones around you. example your parents or guardians, friends, neighbours, etc. also you should be ready so that you can continously be able to provide the monthly rental or else there will be no use of opening a web site.

Depends on the goals of your website. Will you be attempting to sell products on the website? If so then your cost will be greatly increased. As for myself, I am currently designing my website because I do web design in my spare time and basically through Yahoo, you can host a good informational website for $20 a month. At the most it will cost you maybe $100 a month to host your site. If you design it yourself then all it will cost is time. If you want a merchant solution your cost will be increased but I could not give you a definite answer of cost.

I guess it depends where you are, how many you'll be uploading and how many you expect to download.\n\nA lot of the free sites don't support audio or video files and those that do probably have restrictions on the amount of webspace available to you or have bandwidth limits.\n\nI'm just tying a new host to see how reliable they are and have so far uploaded about 30 audio files and 30 video files.  They're offering a free 3 month trial and so far (about 3 weeks in) I've not had any problems.\n\nThe web address is http://www.streamlinenet.co.uk  The paid for service starts from £18.99 a year (about $36) to £44.99 (about $85) for unlimited everything.  The fee includes a domain name and there's no set up fees.\n\nIf you really want to avoid paying anything then you could register for lots of free sites and upload some audio files to each of them.  You could then have your website link to the audio files on the external sites.  It's a bit of a messy way of doing things but it shouldn't cost anything.

You can use Yahoo Geocities http://geocities.yahoo.com/join/ where you have the option of starting a website for free or low cost hosting of $8.95 per month.\n\nOr you can use Yahoo Small Business Hosting http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/webhosting/compare.php where hosting plans range from $11.95 to $39.95\n\nFree is good for personal websites but has significant limitations for a web-based operation. For one, having a geocities web address does not look professional - it just looks cheap. You also need to consider the following:\n\n- Scalability: what if your business grows and you need more features. This means you will move to a paid hosting as free hosting has severe limitations on what you can do. Such a move is costly -- you will be basically changing your domain name from http://www.geocities.com/mywidgets/widgets.html to http://www.widgets.com . This implies that all your marketing will be put to waste as you will be starting from scratch all over again\n\n- Your plans to monetize your website. If you go for the free Geocities, you will have limited options in showing ads. You cannot apply to programs like Google Adsense because Geocities is showing Yahoo ads and Adsense has a clause that prohibits its publishers from displaying competing ads in the same page.\n\n- The requirements of your business. With free hosting, you are limited to the scripts available - you can't put in your own. If you plan to add an ecommerce component later on, you won't be able to do it.\n\nI suggest that if you are intent in pursuing a web business, start it right and do it with a paid hosting. There are a number of low cost hosting providers out there such as Godaddy.com http://www.godaddy.com

http://www.p4host.com/webhosting.php\nI have used this site for a couple of years and as part of hosting your site with them their package comes with several ecommerce programs.  Plus they offer very reasonable and scaling solution depending on how many sales (transitions) you expect.  Here are the different carts you can install. \nI think the starting hosting package starts at 24 dollar a year!\nosCommerce \nAgora Cart \nCube Cart\nYou can also install several different PHP sites and then customize them.

Check with your local ISP.  They frequently have someone on staff who can develop a basic site for you. If you are looking for something more substantial, it may cost you, but check the yellow pages ...\n\nIf I knew where you lived, I might be able to recommend someone more specific ...\n\nIn the end, decide what exactly you want to accomplish with your website, and shop around.  Be obvious, tell everyone who quotes you that you are loking for the best deal !!

I have tried couple of them. Proabaly you can try the following\n\nwww.verio.com(Little expensive)\nwww.netandhost.com (Cheaper and reliable)\n\nYou can do online registration and activate your site instantly. I am using both the companies for hosting my clients website. I live in Australia and using the US and Indian companies for my hosting needs.

somthing like that will cost you BIG $$$ - If you don't know anything about web design, I suggest you start learning asap. It would cost you 5 digits just to hire a designer. Thats not including, hosting, advertising, or anything else that you will need.
