Hi all, massively appreciate any support I can get.  I'm really keen to open a garden bench business but intend to start small and with that, make use of the internet as my shop.  As ever keen to save money so with that, can anyone recommend any free webpage making companies that I can make use of?  And anything else I need to consider to start a new and small business?

I can't really help with your question about free web making/hosting services, but if you want to have a store where people can make purchases and you can receive payment for them, then you are likely to have to pay for this.

Make sure you understand all the charges, e.g. transaction charges that might be levied for taking payments.
