i need to make a web site for my weather data and web cam also do you have to pay for having youre own site thanks.

Morning,
Most web hosting companies charge or use adverts to get revenue. I have used hosting4hobbies. It has allowed me to create and use a page for free, the only thing is you need to have hosting4hobbies as part of the address. Try it http://hosting4hobbies.info

Then follow the detailed help given in the forum for setting up the webpage. http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/Simple_Website_setup

Enjoy....

Thanx martin for the info iv'e now set up an account with glovine.net cheers.

Your Internet Service Provider probably gives you some web space. You need to make sure that they allow you to ftp (upload on-demand from your PC) rather than only by a control panel.

Later on you may wish to consider things like PHP, mySQL, bandwidth allocation - but that's for when you decide to get clever and have only 30 mins sleep a day

Having your own domain name is no great hardship either technically or financially, I recommend everyone should have one if only so you can have a million mail names that never have to change !
The easiest option is to 'buy' a name from eg. http://www.123-reg.co.uk and then 'forward' it to where ever (and when ever) your real web space is. (and the same for the mail which is part of it)

EDIT: Oh well , must be in a rush
