Free website ideas

"I'd like to have an actual website. Didn't know you could have free ones. Can you point me in the right direction please?"

I would suggest either Wordpress or Blogger. They offer free hosting and their blog formats can look almost any way you might want them to while remaining easy to use.

They both offer many features
Both can have a URL (domain name) pointed at them too so they look just like any other website to visitors

If I had to suggest one, I'd go with Blogger, it's owned by google, there are lots of features and it's easy to add google advertising if you do want to try to make a few $$ with it

If you need more help let me know, but I suspect if you figured out You Tube these will be easy for you

Good luck
