Finding A Host Or Some Personal Space
First things first, you’ll need to decide if you are going to build your own site and get it hosted or use one of the popular blogging sites. Building your own site may require some technical know-how and will mean you’ll need to purchase some webspace (see hosting tips below). On the plus side you’ll have almost total freedom in your design and content.

An alternative is to use one of the free blogging platforms such as Blogspot or MySpace. Blog sites like this very site have become an enormously popular method of getting seen and heard on the web. They are easy to customise, even if you’re not technically minded, and there are loads of great free templates to download. Other personal page services include wordpress, which have space to blog, share photos, pictures, your movie files and links. This option is great if you’re looking to get your site off the ground and your content seen as soon as possible. In the long term though, you may want to look at a more ambitious design and to get your own webspace, which involves some more hands on design work and coughing up for some hosting.

Hosting Tips 

 

The URL of your site (the www. bit) will need to be registered first; this is the address people use to find your site. One thing to keep in mind here is copyright, don’t use someone else’s IP (intellectual property) in the URL otherwise you may be forced to close or rename your site once it’s launched and built a community. As mentioned, most of the sites that offer hosting include registration services, but if you do register a domain name with your hosting service you’d be wise to check who owns the url should you want to change hosting providers and take you url elsewhere.  

 

Pure HTML programming requires little software other than a simple text editor such as Notepad. However, if you don’t want to get your head in the books and start from scratch, you can opt to use a wysiwig editor (what you see is what you get) to build your site. These editors make website building far easier since you can place elements on your pages using visual tools and wizards. However they won’t necessarily improve your knowledge of the code behind your site. Again, it’s a question of how quickly you want your site up and running and how much time you have to invest in learning all that’s involved.
