Setting up a web site

[Chapel]

I want to set up a new website (nb - not for sales). What steps should I take?

Decide what you want on your site, create the pages and look at them on your own PC before attempting to upload them to any server for the rest of the world to see and make sure that if you include any images, that you don't link to files on your hard drive : use a "relative link" to the image instead.

Your ISP likely gives you free webspace to host the site on.

Read up on HTML. www.w3schools.com is a very good place to learn. Also www.freewebs.com will let you make your website for free. It even has a WYSIWYG editor for if you don't know HTML.

Thanks folks.

Am happy enough that I know enough HTML etc, what i need to know is how to get the site on the web. I think Stevie21 answered that for me.

Cheers.

If your ISP doesn't give you space, I have plenty of it although the address would be something like:
www.stevie21.com/chapel/index.html

Alternatively lots of free webspace is available online from nice people such as brinkster etc.
