 well i guess..
theres nothing free now a days, i mean would u give some one some thing with out gettting some thing in return ?
i mean there are loads of people where you can get real .com doamin names but again u have to work for that.
so the answer to your question is really NO.
ide recomend you some thing but we are not aloud to condone talk about other web
hosts.
also if you want to build a web site, before you start i recomend you learn a bit oh html, which should help you build some thing basic, but to make it more complex you need moore programing languages which take tiome to learn.
also to get a GFX making prog as no web site will look pro with out even buttons to supprt it.

 Well some free webhosts (like angel towns) put the ads in your website control panel rather than as banners or popups on the actual site. Meaning no ads on your site. So I'd say the answer is 'yes, but...'

And there is lots of websites offering html help to beginners. Learning html is really all you need to create a website, and even that isn't nessesary as lots of free webhosts offer beginner-friendly webbuilder tools. The problem with those is your site end up looking butt ugly, and you're not in complete control of your site... So learning html defintely pays off.

Plus with a bit of html knowledge all you need is notepad and a webbrowser to make a webpage.

There's no need to make it more complicated than it is... once you've learned how to make a decent website we'll come back and hit you on the head with validators, css and paid hosting :P

 I'd recommend Freewebs. It has an easy mode for novices and an advanced mode. No ads, although they require you to leave the copyright in.

 If you can afford $2.50 USD a month or £1.25 GBP, I can point you in the direction of the most amazingly cheap host you'll find, which has many options for people who don't know HTML.

 Freewebs is not very good because they offer so little features. I found this great new host! It has 3gb transfer 100mb space 1 mqsql account and more all free with a small banner at the top. Its what I use now.

http://www.100webspace.com

Hope this helps!

 Anybody new to making websites wouldn't need any of that.
Freewebs is close to perfect for beginners and has no ads, which is what they asked for. ;)

 You should send a e-mail to your ISP about it.
(that adres would most likely be something like: support@xx where xx=what your parents have after the @ (assuming you still live with them)
I know that's not understandable:P
The adres can be found on there website :yes:

All ISP's I know give you (some) free webspace without any ads.
(No php or anything, but you won't be needing that for a little while :) )

For websites that only use html (and maybe some JS) that webspace is good enough.
(I use mine a lot)

So check your ISP's website, send an email (though the info should be findable on the website is self) it should help you :)

 Hmm, yeah.
I always forget I have an ISP. :lol:
I never even bothered to set up my email with them.
That might be a good way to go, though maybe some of the cheaper packages don't offer webspace? :unsure:
I can't imagine those $9.95 dialup ones do. :ermm:

 A good site to learn (X)HTML and CSS is http://www.htmldog.com. I know of some good free hosts, but I'm not posting them because of what happened last time.

 Building your own website isn't really a big deal. Here is some example code of a simple website if you want:
Code: HTML
 
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<meta name="author" content="Zuzanna K. Filutowska">
<meta name="generator" content="mcedit">
<meta name="keywords" content="me, my, homepage, page, first, website">
<meta name="language" content="English">
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<meta http-equiv="creation-date" content="07.05.05">
<meta http-equiv="reply-to" content="me@mydomain.com">
<title>My first Website!</title>
<!-- Magic code that does alot of nice things begin. -->
<style type="text/css">
<!--

It will give you something like that http://pt.platinum.linux.pl/sillyhtml/ (it is only an example site).
After you will read manuals you should quickly figure out what is going on in this code. ;-)
