FIRST LEARN HOW TO BUILD A WEBPAGE AND LEARN THE BASICS OF DESIGN WITH FREE TOOLS

FREE HOSTS

Interversity
The point of being a bureaucracy-free zone is to enable folks to do things they want to do but can't easily manage in the institutional world. Whether because of scarce resources or briar-patches of persnickety polices, institutions sometimes put roadblocks in place where we would like to see open doors.

Ning.com allows people to create their own social-networking Web sites. Teachers can create private mini-social sites to create class discussion, profiles their students create and social activists can generate buzz, support their causes with a very public social-networking site. The service offers all the tools for free.

The Free Site

Free Shell Account
Geocities, Tripod and Angelfire are some of the best known of the free hosts for your webpage. However, many free webpage hosts now require pop ads that are distracting and annoying. I would recommend finding a place that doesn't load annoying ads. Some features that are nice to have include: 10 mb or more of storage (although 5mb is probably enough), FTP capability, CGI capability and NO popup banner ads.
