Rich, There are several ways of doing this with costs going from nothing upwards.
Some ISP's charges are inclusive of some web space ( see my tiscali site) and others one pays for (my fergys.co site). The former usually has a limit on the space eg. tiscali is 50MB for the main email address + 10MB each for the next 9 addresses. In general they only allow html/javascript and not php/sql and other ways of working/coding. The paid for site allows much more space (I have 1 GB) and am free to use many types of site construction. With both I need to use an FTP Client to get the site onto the servers. I currently use ftp Commander which is available, free of charge, from http://internet-soft.com/ftpcomm.htm . The free version works well but others are available with different facilities just Google for "Free FTP Clients" (no quotes). Other ways of getting your site up include using one of the free sites available such as Geocities at http://geocities.yahoo.com/ps/learn2/HowItWorks4_Free.html . The free version allows drag and drop to get the pages onto the site - can be a bit time consuming! Some sites tend to specialise in genealogy such as Tribal Pages but there are others such as Site Builder, again Google is your friend, try "Free Website Hosting" (no quotes). Finally for Legacy users there is a specific self-help group concerning websites at http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/WUL/ .
