Yes, I use google pages which is great. I also use godaddy and pay only 8.95 a month... cheap and great. Comes with sitebuilder and hosting!

Mikovirtual - I have a question for you. How do you use google pages, then also godaddy.com for sitebuilding and hosting? I have my domain name thru godaddy.com and paid $17.50 for two years. I'm seeking info on the website building and hosting. So, the goodle pages is what' confusing. Robin

Some additional free website building sites:
www.weebly.com
www.viviti.com
A free flash site builder: www.wix.com

I have some experience with weebly. Haven'ty tried viviti yet. Have played around with wix.

I have built many pages with Weebly and it's great, super easy to navigate and create. Best of all it's FREE to host. The best thing I like is that when you want to add it to say a godaddy domain or any other common domain it gives you a tutorial on how to do it. Seems overwhelming when you are just learning how to do it all but Weebly makes it easy! I had no idea what I was doing and now, I feel like I learned alot by going through Weebly! I do want to look into Google because Google has soo many other applications that are fantastic! Good Luck.

I just checked wix.com and that is one cool site, Flash site builder! I have some people who might be interested in this!! I will have fun playing with it!

This is where I have come to a road block. Not sure if I am just being picky but I dont want to get stuck with a cheesy site so I opted to search for a website designer only to find their price range is from $500-$900. Please any advise would be appriciated...

PS is flash on the site asking for too much?

Thank you for the site - I'm just getting started and would love something to just kind of play around with at no cost 1st. This should be a great tool
