FINDING A HOME
FOR YOUR HOMEPAGE

Before you can start to build your homepage, you have to find a place to build it!

If you are working from a computer where you can build a homepage and then upload the page(s), you have much more freedom in picking a provider. However, WebTVers must find a site where they can build their page(s) on line.

Here are just a few providers that offer just such a service:
  1. ANGELFIRE
  2. FREETOWN
  3. GEOCITIES
  4. TRIPOD
    and
  5. XOOM

Each provider will offer different advantages, so you may want to spend some time checking them out.

Most will offer both a 'Template' and a 'Do-It-All-Yourself' format for building your pages. The 'Template' format can be a bit constricting, but is a great way to start to learn just how HTML works.

I built my first page that way and then edited it in the 'Do-It-All-Yourself' format where I could see just how the various parts of the page worked.

Almost all of the providers do not charge a fee for use of the homepage space - but they usually do place some sort of ad on your page. Usually they offer a no-ad alternative for a minimal membership fee.
