web Hosts
Here are two reliable web companies who can register your domain name and host your site:

Spiralhost (USA)
what do I need for a simple web site?
1. A domain name - eg www.yourname.com - so that people can find you.
2. Web content pages, like this one.
3. A method of transferring files from one computer to another. This can be done through your browser.
4. A web server (web host) to deliver web pages to the world. Any computer can be turned into a web server by installing server software and connecting the machine to the internet - but leave it to the experts. It needs to be fast, robust and capable of handling lots of information 24/7.
Make sure you keep all of the usernames and passwords in a safe place. Make sure you remember where that safe place is.
