I will help you to answer question what is better: buy or create your own website.

Lot of people are interesting in the Internet. They surf for imformation or just for fun. But sometimes they start thinking about their own website or blog.

Not everyone understand how to create website or blog and they spend money for companies that can do this.

I will show you how to create website or buy it cheaper.

  1. You should choose what you want: blog or website. For begginers I recomend blogs, because it's easier to manage them and a little bit cheaper.
  2. Now when you know what you really want you may think how much you can spend on this.
    Hosting (space in the Internet) for simple blog or website will cost you about 50$ / year and domain (http://www.youradress.com) ~10$ per year.
    You can start blogging for free - you may use blogospheres like worpress or blogger. Creating free websites you can at Freewebs.com or Google sites.
    If you use blogsphere or online site creators (Freewebs.com) you will find all instructions inside these websites.
  3. Buying hosting and domain. I can't say which hosting service is good for you, because in different countries are lot of good and bad hosting services, so you may found it yourself (try forums). One of the best worldwide domain seller is GoDaddy.com. Sometimes there are very big discounts.
  4. When you have hosting and domain you need to install CMS (Content management system). For websites i recommend you use Joomla and for blog WordPress. How to install to server you will find in readme file. If you don't understand - read point 5.
  5. If you can't install CMS search for freelanchers - they will install CMS cheaper then Internet Companies. Be careful - nowadays are lot of scamers, search for recommendations in forums, other blogs or websites.

Also you can by earlier created website or blog, but you may have some problems like documentation, licenses of designs and so on. By the way, created websites costs more then new, but sometimes they already have visitors, good PageRank. Advantages of FREE website builder:
  • No fees;
  • Easier than creating all from A to Z;
  • Do not need any programming skills;
Disadvantages:
  • Very few available designs;
  • Not all builders accept your own domain, so you must use their subdomain such as yourname.hosting.com;
  • Maximum file size are limited;
Advantages of your own created website / blog:
  • You can use your own domain;
  • You can install CMS that you want;
  • You may choose from lot of designs or paint yours;
  • and lot of more...
Disadvantages:
  • Expensive;
  • Need some programming skills.
