What sort of server are you running out of? Whatever it is, there's probably a file with a name something like index.html somewhere near the top of the directory structure you're serving. Changing the content in that will change what you're showing to the world.

Past that, you're in the territory of tools and techniques. Google jQuery, or even just HTML, and start reading and experimenting - you can save HTML files on your local PC and look at them with your browser. If you want a nice free editor, grab yourself a copy of Java and a jEdit.

Getting stuff from your PC to the server can be another stumbling block, but the ways around that depend on the tools you're using.

Programming? What do you want the website to do? And what language do you want to tell it to do it in?

Maybe brainstorming a few ideas will help you "wet someone's appetite" and get them interested in helping you out... even if it isn't brainstorming on the technical side of things so - what do you want your site to be about?

I have used this and it is very good to were you can create .html files and if you don't know how to code webpages you don't need to if you don't want to
