Two of us did it between us. Both putting pages together and emailing them back and forth for corrections. Once we were happy we pressed the button and sent it into cyberspace to fend for itself. It was easier than we thought but did take a bit of time. Neither of us had ever done anything like it before. Costs me ?22 every two years for the domain and space that came with it (including 10 email addresses as yet unused)

Draw some pictures on your scanner (wax crayons will do). Scan them in and then send them to, er cyberspace.

Frankly, I dunno how it works either. I get a woman in!

Either that or some swine has been remapping me keys

This bloody board is getting more like Auntie Sobs problem page every day.

I am getting to be fully occupied just watching for the next episode of calamitous developments.

But it is nice to see Nick playing such a full part in the technology departments  Bravo Nick.



Yes!  Go for option 3.  There are countless ways to buy a domain and you don't have to rent the space from the same firm. 

There are places that do commercial sites for next to nothing, I use a US west coast company for mine,  everything I need 2Gb of space unlimited POP mailboxes and traffic for $24 per two years.

I can point any web address to it and use any software to upload (including Front Page extensions).

I started from scratch, knowing nothing about web sites and got everything working in about a week.  but a tip:  Remember that all the links and pages and things are case-sensitive. it took me days to work that out, and that .htm is NOT the same as .html

There are a few elements?

Firstly is the domain name www.growler.com or whatever

Then you need the web space to host your web site

The POP thingymagigs are e-mail accounts so you can have sales@growler.com and such like. Some give a limited number free while others charge you for them.

That should be you up-and-running. Additional services that U2 charge me for are web statistics so you can see how many people visit your site every month and professional DNS services which you don?t need. they may also offer to spam filter your POP accounts for you at an extra charge.
