Where did you guys go to make your web pages or what service do you use? I just want something simple so I can mess around with for now and maybe make profit off what ever product/service I sell in the future.

Any tips/comments? I have a basic knowledge of html,xhtml,xml,css and access to other web developing tools.

 

i used 1and1.com. got two domains and space for like $30 i think

for a year im pretty sure

edit: before that i used dreamhost.com, just because it was $5 for the year :thumbup:

 

use paypal to sell stuff its cheap and easy.

 

Cool thanks, i'll go check that site out.

Yea agreed. I have an account since I buy/sell on ebay once in a while but definately would incorporate that on my page if I were to sell anything.

 

notepad or dreamweaver
1and1 does asp.net

 

HostRocket FTW

 

You can use your own computer to host a webpage by seting up a web server like apache and a database like MySQL. There is a package that includes everything you need to do this called XAMMP.

Once you get it setup the way you want it, since most people use dynamic IP's, you can set up a dynamic DNS to have a static link to your site. Once you have the static link, just buy a domain name for like $8 a year and forward to your dyndns link.

You can set up a dynamic dns at http://www.dyndns.org

This method is ALOT cheaper than paying some third party to host your site. And if your site ever goes down, you can only blame yourself. Also, the space you have is limited by your HD. You can have as much as you want.
