Hi, can someone let me know of any good website hosting sites. Im looking at starting a website and would like one with a menu down the side to look at different pages. Nothing too snazzy but something nice and simple, but that looks good

Have a look at this Blog from a web host master, he has some good points to share http://pkblogging.*com/blog1/category/web-hosting/ Also although msn can be good it does play up alot too. Yah00 is easy to use.

Hi Robyne, If you've got the patience and tenacity, you can build your own. You can begin easy and try using ready made templates, or you can get your head round using HTML. Who is your internet provider.... most ISP's give you a certain amount of free webspace. If you want to buy a domain name the cheapest are about £8 for 2 years depending if you want a ,com ,co,uk or ,eu ......etc I made mine using HTML with Microsoft FrontPage. We use BT broadband and have free webspace which I host my site on, so there's no horrible adverts flashing all over the place. You can get free hosting on Lycos or Yah00 but it's full of advertising, and I find it off putting. The beauty of building and controling your own site is you can add or alter what you want when you want..... for free!! Mines only basic but I like it. Does what it says on the label :~) www.siouxhealer(.)co(.)uk - remove brackets. XXX Sioux
