A fantastic question!

I'm going to get ahead and asume that you have no coding experience and want to do it for free.

First of all, you need to learn HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language). 90% of the web is coded in HTML. There are many different ways to learn HTML.

The first, is to go to the W3C School. It's free, and you can learn pretty much any lanugage you want on the web.

The second way to learn HTML is by using a program. A great one is called Dreamweaver. It would use it in conjunction with the W3C HTML School.

Pick up the trial version at: http://www.adobe.com/products/dreamweave...

The third way to learn HTML is to use a book. Something like HTML for Dummies, or the Idiots Guide to HTML. This is actually how I learned how to code HTML. Its a great way to learn, but there is a lot of reading, and books get outdated because they are just ink on paper.

Check out http://www.dummies.com for more info.

The second step in starting a website is getting a Domain. A domain is a URL that you own and/or have control over.

There are many websites that offer free domains, but come with catches.

Great places to start are:

http://www.tripod.com

http://www.freewebs.com

http://geocities.yahoo.com/

These website give you a free domain, yes, but they come at other costs. One is that you don't get a .com/.org/.net domain. With tripod, you will get a <yourdomain>.TRIPOD.COM and with free webs it will be something like www.freewebs.com/<domain>

Remember that HTML is just the building block of a web page. Incorperating things like PhP, Flash, CSS, Java, Javascript, and more will get you really professional looking websites.

HTML is a cumbersome but very rewarding process, and its really fun making a website! The BEST way to get good at HTML is to practice, practice, practice.

Good luck, and have fun!

Best way to create your own free website is with Microsoft Office Live Small Business - http://tinyurl.com/officeliveoffer . Currently, MS is offering a free domain name (i.e. yourwebsite.com) for the first year. It has a free online web design tool that allows you to create web pages without coding.  You can add more sophisticated functions to your website by embedding forums, third-party widgets/gadgets via its HTML module.
