There are literally thousands of companies keen to host your new website. If you are not sure how to set up a website, but are looking for a simple way to set it up, try Yahoo Small Business. You can set up a site with them quickly and easily and they also provide the Yahoo Sitebuilder software which is easy to use and included free. They also provide an online store facility with payment via Paypal, if you are going to be selling goods.

You may thought about your website name and have a few ideas of what names you might choose. You'll need to see if that name is available or get some suggestions for other ideas. If what you have chosen is not available, you might consider adding “online” or “home” to the name.

I have found Yahoo to be a reliable company for webhosting. They also provide free software to create a website, you won't need to buy anything to create or publish your site. It all comes as part of the package. Right now, there's a special deal on, so if you just want to register your new domain name - it's just $2.95 for a whole year, or if you want to start a website, it's just $8.95 per month.

Yahoo also supply some really good statistics on who has visited your page and you can download the Weblog Expert to get a detailed breakdown of which pages are most popular and what "keywords" people are typing into the search engines.

For this reason, I'd recommend them to anyone. Not least because my daughter (she's just 18) had her own site up and running within an hour. If she can do it, I know anybody can.
