Website building

[itsmefolks]

Can anyone advice a novice how and where I begin to build a website?? I have loads of photos and video etc that I would love to put together on a website for my Grandchildren to see. I have seen some amateur sites with hyperlinks, and "click to enlarge" thingies which I would love to do! I have some knowledge of computing but not brilliant!!
Regards

If you have a broadband connection such as virgin you will have free web hosting for simple web sites. Your ISP is the first place to look, and they will have tools and tutorials for you to utilise

Use Google sites. It's free AND so easy for what you want to do.

google is a good start - quick and easy
but then consider taking the time to use your webspace

Why not put the videos on YouTube and the photos on Flickr.

Cant see they point of building a web site when there are web sites around that already offer this service.

Thanks for the ideas everyone. I want to learn how to build a website, and looking for a simple way to start with, thanks!

Hi,

An easy to use and really excellent template step by step builder (using flash, so no-one can steal your content, which they can if HTM or HTML) is MOONFRUIT.COM, I've used them for circa 10 years and never been disappointed.

Cheers
