This thread and the people on it are amazing. Tears again:o

happy to help where I can with websites.

There are loads of free options out their that are very easy to set up and there are other ones out there that will cost you, but still worth it depending on how far you want to go with it.

First thing is to reserve a domain name for your business. www.123-reg is one option (not one I would personally use having worked for them) but seem to be ok for just the domain name etc, really as for registering the name it really is not a big issue where you do that. Once you have that, well you decide what options you want to do for the webpage itself.

I am happy to help out wherever I can and there are loads of others here that will do the same for you.

I need to figure out the seo on my own site lol, will get around to it eventually, but mine is just a business site without much luck at the moment! lol

Jo - thanks for that, i know of moodle but wouldn't have thought about that - its a fab idea as i know the local college use it and they may allow me to volunteer to help out. I'll look into the open uni stuff too - thanks so much, as usual you're a star XXX

And someone once said we don't take this seriously enough! I've learnt so much from you all and am so pleased i found this group xxx
