Calling all computer geeks!

Calling all computer geeks! Help?

Help! I want to start a website for MJ (using a URL that I buy) and I need to know of a good not terribly expensive hosting place that I can make her a website using Front Page (no microsoft jokes, it's what I use! LOL) I want a easier way to sort all of her pictures, stories, videos, health updates, etc, so it isn't so hard to find the information that is on her blog. Anyone have any ideas?

I recommend Yahoo Small Business web hosting. I have used it before and it is very reliable (website is hardly ever down) and easy to use (for the most part).

You can compare the plans at http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/webhosting/compare.php


Right now, you can get a free domain name with the packages. Frontpage should work with any of the three packages.

I use DreamHost, and before that I used Netrillium. Both good.

Please Please Please Please Please don't use Frontpage. Please

Try nVu [pronuounced New View] for a free WYSIWYG web editor. Frontpage does not make good web pages... :wave:

I use A Small Orange. They're a great host on so many levels. They're fairly cheap, they have lots of great features, they're very fast, I never see downtime, and all my support questions are usually answered within minutes. I've yet to find a complaint about them, and I've been with them since around September 2004.

I have been using Lunarpages. http://lunarpages.com
It seems great!

I use Dreamweaver for my web authoring, and I love it. Grew up using it and will continue to use it forever and ever!

Thanks for all of the suggestions gang...unfortunately, with taking care of MJ and stuff I just don't have the engery to learn another program...I did look at htem all though. For hosting I went with Networksolutions, I did buy a domain name (MJsSpot.com) thought there is nothing there yet and will just use Front Page... not the best choice I know, but if I want to get this up anytime soon I have to go with what I already know how to use.... Perhaps when things settle down here a little bit I can devote some time to learnign a new program

I use Powweb for hosting and coppermine for pics. Happy with both of them

Do you already have a webhost? Becasue what I'm gettign from your post is that you think you can just use Front Page and your web sites magically on the net. At least, I think that's what you're trying to say. You still need a web host to actually get the site on the net, Front Page just makes the web site files. You still need to upload it to a web host. Meaning, you can still use Front Page and then upload it to your host, which should be A Small Orange.
