Building a website.

Sitec · 2011-12-21 17:14:32

I want to make a website to record my progress through a college project. I will need to put videos, pictures and text on the site. How do I go about building one? Where do I purchase a .com site? How expensive is it? Thanks for your time.

Try google sites - its free so it'll probably suit you best
To buy a domain - try any of the registered resellers here

If you're only going to be using it to track your progress, you'd be best off using something like Wordpress.com or Tumblr.

I think Digiweb are still doing free non-commercial hosting for students for one year, including domain name.

Set up a blog on wordpress.com or blogger.com - that's ideal for what you want.
