Necessary

Instructions
Step 1
You can create your own website absolutely free of charge on any of the services that provide such services, and there are many of them on the network. In this case, you will not even need to learn the basics of the HTML language, since you will be provided with an almost finished site - you just need to choose a design and fill the resource with content.
Step 2
The above option is very simple, but it has its drawbacks. First of all, on the pages of your site, the owners of the service will place advertisements, sometimes very intrusive. In addition, you will not be able to move the site to another location, it can be closed at any time without explanation. You can avoid this by registering a domain, purchasing hosting and creating a site code. In this case, you will receive almost complete freedom and independence, you will have the opportunity to transfer your resource to another hosting at any time.
Step 3
First, register your domain with any of the registrar services. The cost of a domain in the.ru zone will cost you about one hundred rubles a year. After registering your domain name, proceed to create the pages of your site. If it's simple, you can write its code in a simple html editor like CuteHTML.
Step 4
In the event that you need a large colorful site, it is better to use Dreamweaver. This is a very powerful visual website builder that can be found on the Internet. In addition, you will need a paid or free template, on the basis of which you will create your website. Using a ready-made professional template will save you a lot of time and effort.
Step 5
Start Dreamweaver and open the downloaded template in it. Now you can modify the template in the way you want. It is necessary to make on its basis the main page of the site and a template for other pages. First, remove from the template everything that you don't need - extra columns, fields, etc. Determine what elements will be common to all pages, including the home page. When the new template is created, save it under any name and make a copy of it.
Step 6
Now, based on the modified template, create the main page of your site. Enter the necessary headings, text, make navigation, insert pictures. For your convenience, download and install the Denwer program - it will help you view the site pages as if they were already posted on the network.
Step 7
Based on the copy of the modified template, create the rest of the site pages. The template is convenient because you already have a page template, you just need to insert the necessary text and images and correct menu items. Check the finished resource carefully in Denver for errors. Only after making sure that everything is working correctly, proceed to the next stage - finding a hosting and laying out the pages of the site.
Step 8
Hosting cost starts from 30 rubles per month. Pay for services for two or three months - this is enough to check the quality of the service. Find out the names of its DNS servers in the reference section of the hosting, then go to your account on the domain registrar service and enter these names in the appropriate fields. This is necessary in order to link the domain to the hosting.
Step 9
Log into your account on the hosting service, find the public_html folder and load your website pages into it. After that, try to open the site in a browser using its domain name. Remember that from the moment the domain is linked to the hosting, it can take about a day before your site starts to open.
