find some nerdy ass dude with a busted car and fix it in trade for a web page

good plan.

 

 

Make sure they actually can do a good website. Not just any nerd will do or you will have a half assed website.

 

 

Get a idea what you want and let me know I can point you in the right direction but i dont do web design. hit me up.

If your building just a web page where you wont have people give you personal information over the net, you dont need an ssl certificate. If memeory serves its from a third party who ensures the given informations protection. Are you taking credit cards or anything over the net?

I use them for all of my sites. They've got awesome support and I have been happy with them since I started using their services in 2005.

 

freeservers.com is who i use rob

 

but who built them per say? you guys do it yourself?

just go to hostgator.com

 

I think there is still a code where you can get the first month for a penny. If you're only going to be hosting one site, they have a 4.95/month plan that would be perfect for you.

 

fuck all of the hosts mentioned so far. You won't like them.

you don't need spamgaurd if you don't ever put your email address on there, or use the domain for email.

 

SSL is for secure connection to the website, like for when people use a credit card to buy something from the Information Super Highway.

I've got dreamhost, I should be able to make a coupon to get it for damn cheap if not free for the first year or something. Then its $10/month, and every month your bandwidth and host space grows. You can host as many domains as you want, the first domain you register is free and any after that are $10 each.

 

As for actually building it - have any more specific questions? I don't know a whole lot about websites, but so far your questions are very broad.
