How to create my own website for free

Kevin Kevin

If you have ever tried to create your own website from scratch (such as using HTML with Notepad), then you know how time intensive such an operation is. Not only that, but sometimes, the website can turn out looking completely unsatisfactory. This article will demonstrate how you can cost-effectively create your own web page with little or no knowledge of coding in HTML/CSS.

Making an informal site

Most people who are looking to create their own website wish for a blog, or personal hobby site. For this, it would be somewhat impractical to pay a web designer, since there are chances that you are not planning on making too much profit from your endeavour. Making a blog A blog is a slightly different classification from website. Blogs are usually more centred around one topic, and are typically written in person, with a feel of creative writing. If you would like to make a blog, it is recommended that you use Google's absolutely free blog hosting and creation service titled "BlogSpot". Located at BlogSpot.com, it has an extremely simple set-up process, while allowing those who know CSS coding to customise one of the hundreds of free templates available from Google. Additionally, there are no forced ads, but you can choose to have adverts on your site and get paid for them through Google AdSense.

Making a formal site

If you wish to conduct business on your site, or you want to have formally written, official-sounding articles, BlogSpot is probably not the best choice for you. In order to build a site to create your own business, you should try the service located below. Weebly Weebly, located at Weebly.com, is ideal for beginners. Weebly is an absolutely free hosting service without any adverts whatsoever, other than a very small line of text that says "Create your free website at Weebly.com today". They have many pre-made templates, and many advanced features that come with the free membership, on top of unlimited bandwidth and storage for your website. There is a Pro membership that has more advanced features, but most of them are not necessary, unless you desire to remove the footer with the advert and want to have a .com domain.
