Instructions on How to Make a Website for Free

1. The Squidoo publishing platform makes creating a free website point-and-click simple. Squidoo's creators claim that as of February 2010, it had more than 1.4 million (Squidoo's name for a website) in its system. With Squidoo, you combine pre-made modules and your own content to create a lens. Besides simple components that support things like text and graphics, there are modules that display YouTube videos, Flickr photos and other media. There are even modules that connect your lens to online vendors such as Amazon and eBay, so you can sell items from your lens.You can create an unlimited number of lenses (websites) for free. The Web address of each lens takes the form of XYZ.squidoo.com, where 'XYZ' is the name you assign to your lens, and the rest of the address is the Squidoo domain name. Squidoo runs Google AdSense ads on each lens, and popular lenses earn a small share of that money, so even if you don't do any sales-related activities yourself, Squidoo can earn you some money.
2. Wetpaint combines the elements of blogs, forums, social networks and wikis (sites that allow visitors to contribute content) so you can create a free website that emphasizes contributions from, and interaction with, visitors. Like Squidoo, it features pre-made modules that you combine with your own content to build your website.Free sites on Wetpaint include ads that the company uses to pay for the service. The company also offers a premium service where it charges a monthly fee in exchange for removing the ads from your site and giving you the option to have a custom domain name.

3. Blogger is for people who want to create a free blog-style website. Web logs (blogs for short) are a series of journal entries (blog posts) rather than a more structured website. Typical uses for blogs include keeping a daily journal, reporting on ongoing news or events, and similar uses that involve writing about a stream of activity.Blogger provides pre-designed templates and supports both pictures and video in blog posts. To earn money, you can opt to have Google AdSense ads or links to Amazon.com (through the Amazon Associates merchant program) appear in your blog posts. Like Wetpaint, Blogger allows you to create a custom domain name for your website. Unlike Wetpaint, you do not have to pay for a premium version of Blogger to use a custom domain name.
