Create A Free Web Site

With several web sites offering free web pages, you do not have to pay any money to become part of the World Wide Web. As long as you have a little time and patience (plus the willingness for your web page viewers to look at advertisements), then you can get your first web page on-line in an hour or less.

Two of the most popular sites which allow you to create a free web site are Yahoo! Geocities and Angelfire (part of the Lycos network). Both require you to register with a username and password before an account can be built, and both places ads on your site.

Each site offers different pros and cons.

Angelfire
Web address: (www.angelfire.com/(area location you choose)/(your user name)
Amount of Disk Space: 20 MB
Extras: free images, blog builder, cut and paste html templates, free ftp, FrontPage enabled, free Pay Pal shopping cart (does not include fees incurred through Pay Pal)

Yahoo! Geocities
Web address: (www.geocities.com/your-Yahoo!-ID)
Amount of Disk Space: 15 MB
Extras: free images, step-by-step page wizard for beginners, Yahoo! PayDirect, Site statistics

Based on their offerings, first-time builders would best be served by Geocities to create a free web site quickly with their page wizard. Angelfire is a better choice for those with very basic HTML offerings, especially if the user wants FTP capabilities. If you only want a blog (the on-line version of a public diary), then Angelfire is also the best choice for you with its easy-to-use blog builder.

If you need a more extensive web site with more options and your own domain name (www.nameofyourchoice.com), then please contact A+ Technical Services for a detailed estimate.
