You can usually get some space to make a home page from your Internet Service Provider. If you want to have your own unique web address you will need to have a web service provide you with paid space. You can now get a shared web server for about $5.00 a month just search for web site provider or web hosting. You will need to know how to write html or have a software program like dreamweaver. You can learn how to write html by searching "learn html" or you could take a class at a local college. The biggest thing to know about a web site is nobody will know it exists unless you tell them. It's called marketing and the greatest use for a website for your business is to better communicate to your clientele. If you have a unique product available in different sizes and colors a web site is great. I hope this helps. Darrel1953

Ask mail2Web. They may offer templates to do that or they may allow you to design your own HTML page(s) and use that on the space they provide. If not, then you will have to subscribe to a WEB host service, which also means getting your own domain. You can then learn HTML and other aspects of WEB page design or hire a designer to do the job for you. Many WEB hosts offer packages that include design services.

Don't expect to put up a page and have ir pop up on search engines and bring in business. Unless you have a unique product or service, your page will probably be buried several search pages deep. Most WEB pages should be used as a supplement to traditional marketing. A way of providing more in-depth info about your business rather then a first line ad.

You should talk to mail2web and ask them if they will sponsor your page, or you can make you own web page in a word document and save it as an html or webpage document and put a link to mail2web.com or something and you can make your webpage a domain at
Internet Domain Name Registration, Domain Transfers. Your domain name search starts here.
