For most people just starting out you will want to get a shared hosting account. In other words your website or sites will be hosted on the same web server with other customers and their sites. This type of hosting account is much cheaper than having your own dedicated server. Your next decision should be to decide if you think you will be creating more than one website. If you plan on having more than one website you will want to choose a plan that allows you unlimited bandwidth, unlimited storage and the ability to host unlimited domains on the same hosting account. Many web hosts will offer you a free domain name but I prefer to buy and control my own domain just in case I decide to switch hosting companies in the future.
What are some of the things you should consider when choosing your domain name? An obvious choice is to select a domain name that closely matches the subject of your website. As an example if your site is about swimming you should choose a domain name related to swimming and related activities. After you have selected your domain name and the registrar where you will make the purchase you need to consider whether your need to privatize your information or not. When you register a domain you have to provide the registrar your name and valid contact information. If you do not want that information to be publicly available then you will need to acquire a private listing. Some domain registrars charge an annual fee for this feature and a few include it in the purchase of your domain name.

You no longer have to be a super geek to have your own site on the net.
