I want to set up a web site

Mrs_Bones

Hi

I want to set up a web site to show some of my crafting items, with a view to maybe moving into selling a bit later on.

I've been told that both Weebly and Wix are fairly idiot proof but that I may need to get a domain name from somewhere else cheaper. Can someone give me some advice where to go for a domain name and what to look for, or indeed any other advice about web sites. I'm completely new to this and I need something simple.

Thanks.

weebly do free hosting of your site, so why not use their free subdomain (yourname.weebly.com) then you can buy a domain later and point it at your weebly site.
i recommend 123reg.co.uk for the domain.

Moonfruit is so easy to use and gives great looking websites. You can also use it for free while you practice.

I made this site using it: www.mortgageplymouth.co.uk, took me a weekend

Moonfruit also gives you a free domain name when you take one of the better packages (about £4 a month I think)

Thank you, I had not heard of the Moonfruit site, I will look at both that and the 123 one.

I bought my domain name from 1+1 and used Weebly to create my site.

Weebly's dead easy to use imho.
