Starting My Own Website

I chose to do research on creating a website week 2 becasue that was something that I was interested in doing. I went to register our name but my husband told me that he had already registered our name. He went to network solutions.com and ofosu.com was already taken so he put us on back order so when the name became available we would be notified. Eventually ti became available and my husband purchased it for $95.00 for 5 years. That was all that was ever done. Now I am going to move forward and actually create a website for our family. I am checking out prices and services currently. My husband wants to stick with network solutions but I am going to see what is out there. There is a website out there that rates web hosting services and I am going to check it out.
