You need an account on your ISP. They'll give you the address/Account Name/Password for the FTP. You deliver your web page content to that site along with all graphics, etc.

You don't actually have to get the web address from Internic (and pay the $70US fee). Your ISP will give you an address that is off their primary address. You only need to go to the expense of registering your own domain if you want people to be able to think you're at the top of the food chain. For example my site is hosted by CyberChute and therefore my web address is the cumbersome:

www.cyberchute.com/rvbus/madmark

instead of the sleek and personalized: www.madmark.com

Once you have created your web page (for help on that look in the Front Page and HTML forums) you use the FTP program (another source is www.ipswitch.com) to transfer your files onto the host. Once the files have been saved there anyone in the world can visit your site.

There are also sites where you can sign up for hit counters (www.fastcounter.com), guestbooks, etc. These sites give you snippets of HTML to add to your page that add those functions. You simply copy/paste. There are other sites that will review your HTML code for accuracy, completeness, etc. Finally there are sites that you can submit your site to so that the various search engines can find you. Yahoo, Lycos, etc. will all accept site submissions.

Have fun!
