Actually YUKU is a really great free site. I have an author's page there as well as my own RPG and discussion site. They give you alot of skins and its pretty easy to navigate. Just go to Yuku.com

But Yuku really isn't for websites, it's more for discussion forums like here at Roswell Fanatics.

I think what you're looking for is something like freewebs.com, webs.com, geocities, etc. You can find a bunch
of them here: http://www.google.com/search?q=free+web ... tartPage=1 . Those sort of places are easy to get started with and if you ever need any help,
let me know. :) Good luck!
My fanart/cover art rules:
1) I'm a pro freelance webdesigner so I may not be able to get the art to you overnight, fanart is free time hobby stuff.
2) I do this for free because I'm a fan first and I like to help other people. Don't take my generosity for granted or I won't do it anymore.
3) I usually charge extra for more than 3 changes, so that's the limit. A huge deal :)

Honestly, I've never heard of freewebsites.com so I can't tell you how good they are, but they've been
around for a while it seems so it probably wouldn't be a bad place to start off. Once you've gotten
started and you get used to what goes into the process of a website then you can move onto a web host:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rls= ... ision&cd=6 or Pick-Me . Web hosts are a little tougher to get used to because most
of them require you to write your own HTML and all. I'm sure that there are quite a few people here
that would be willing to help you out if you need it. :)
