Funny enough, this is how I started out on the internet and look what has happened! Anyway, a free website is good because you can use it for many things. These include

a personal web page trial business purposes information for your club or group discuss topics of interest (forum) trial a new product a family web page plus many more!

The great thing about starting out with a free website is that their are many very good services online that you can get up and running with and which have excellent learning tools.

For instance, www.bravenet.com which is probably the largest and most well known supplier of free websites and hosting gives you 1.5 gig bandwidth, 50 meg of space and also many of the following features:

Absolutely No Setup Fees! Unsurpassed Customer Support Free Domain Names Marketing Tools and Tips Free Instant Content Easy Website Builders Clip Art, Audio Clips and Fonts Over 500 Website Templates Outstanding Industry Reputation

These types of sites are wonderful as the tools are all housed in one place thus allowing for a very quick learning curve.

For those who are really quick learners (the young and quick) unlike

Websites like:

http://www.chami.com/html-kit/ http://www.homeworlds.com/freesoft/editors.htm http://www.htmlgoodies.com/

all offer great html, information, resources and advice.

What ever your taste, online is the place to be for learning, creating and keeping in contact with family and friends.

Have a great time and just remember, when starting out on the web most items and information can be sourced for free, it just a matter of looking around.
