If you could make any website what would it be?

How much does it cost to make your own website? How do you make it? What program do you use?

  • Me and some friends want to make a website thats kind of like iCarly.com, we just pretty much want a site where we can blog about anything and post videos and pictures and pretty much just a cool fun site. We want to have our own domain, like www.(our website).com. We were wondering how can we get started on it, how can we make it, what programs can we use, and any other advice or information for starting your own website would be nice.

  • Answer:

    I've been making websites for a long time and THE best way to do it is get a domain through Yahoo. Your first year is $1.99. Then go to freewebs.com and get a website there. Sometimes they have specials where it's only $15 a YEAR for a fabulous website with no ads. It's super easy to use, you can sell things, post videos, pictures, a blog, you name it. I just started a new one up and chose to pay monthly which is only $4.95. (The didn't have the $15 a year special last time I signed up, but did the time before that.) Really, this is the easiest way, especially if you don't want to mess with HTML or have a newbie looking website. Once you select your site name and all that with freewebs what you'll do is go to your Yahoo small business account (they'll send an email to you with the info) and forward your domain name. It's REALLY easy. If you decide to do this and need help, just let me know. :)

If you're watching a show like "iCarly", then you're too young to own your own website. There are plenty of "free hosting" websites that will let you customize your own forum site. To name two: http://www.invisionfree.com/ http://www.proboards.com/ There are also sites that will give you your own free image board. If you REALLY want to own your own website, you gotta find a website that sells domain names. But making a website from nothing but an owned domain name takes a LOT of hard coding and programming. You need to know html and javascript at least.

Start on freewebs then see if you like it then you can buy your domain name from the its pretty easy and cheap.

you can make a website by going to freewebs.com. it gets you set up really quickly and lets you post videos and pictures. If you want to have a website like this... www.(whatever the name of the site is).webs.com, it doesnt cost any money but if you want to take they webs out, you have to pay a monthly charge that you can find out on freewebs.com. and its a safe website so no pop-ups. By the was I know I sound like Im advertising it, but Im really not trying to... Anyway, You can choose a theme for your website and there are a bunch you can choose from. Like a huge collection of them and if you like one but you want to change the color, they have every color there for you to pick. Also it will guide you throught the steps to make the website so you dont have to worry if you dont know how to make one or if you dont have any experience in the website-making buisiness (I dont know, but it makes sense). Well, good luck!

It does not cost much..to make a website you need a domain and webhosting.The best way to buy a domain for free is to purchase your domain and webhosting together. In this way it is possible to get your domain for free. Some webhosting companies offer this as a gift . I am using bluehost webhosting for mine http://www.bluehost.com/track/bluehostwebhosting/

www.freewebs.com It will cost nothing if you dont want a domain (www.yoursite.com) and you can check their options and prices yourself. It has all the tools needed built into the system. Build a site and if you like it upgrade and buy the domain.

Hmm, the way you phrase it, the site you wish to create is complicated. The .com stuff will cost around from 1 dollar to 9 dollars or more it depends on the bandwith and the quality of the servers. YOu could use an Adobe Program for creating it

you can go from free to $1000.00, you have to buy a domain name, then you gotta build it , ok sounds fun at the moment but have you thought it through, when nasty ppl want to join??

I use geocities to design MY site. It's a Yahoo service, and it's really easy to use. It comes with a "blog generator" and everything. But if you want your own domain name it costs $8.95.

For easy blogging, go to wordpress.com. You get a subdomain (example.wordpress.com) but you can have example.com forward to that. you can buy example.com from godaddy.com or 1and1.com Have fun!!
