    Default Websites

    Has anybody ever set up their own website. I was looking at Freewebs.com last night and my computer wont allow the set up wizard thing to be used.

    Are their any other free sites like this out there that any of you guys have used and found easy!!! (thats the most important bit lol)

    Hi Nicki

    My hubby did mine but it wasnt a free one, sorry.

    Pauline aka d'boss of this site will build you one for a very reasonable price, £25 I think x

    Might just have to speak to Pauline then.

    Although my hubby works in IT so really should volunteer. Maybe if i drop enough hints!

    Thanks

    I wonder what your computer won't let Freewebs load? I use Freewebs and it's very easy - you write your page on your computer and when you're ready copy and paste it in.

    Pauline's sites are lovely - she did Angel's if you want to look at one

    That's a lovely website Angel, really enjoying flicking through it . Do you have a lot of response from it, does it look good for Ofsted?? I'm fully booked at the moment so dont know whether it's worth doing one or not ..... I suppose when I get a 'free' moment - hahaha- it might be worth looking into!

    To be honest I know the parents of the children that I mind love it

    They are always looking at it

    I also get a lot of emails from strangers asking if they can have buttercup the bear haha

    I think its nice to put on my paperwork - my link - I feel proud of it

    I have only ever had one call from it though so no it does not bring in the work but im full anyway

    The most important thing if you do want one is the price

    Pauline is the cheapest by far and charges one fee for the year
    She does everything - the lay out - the colour - the wording - everything just the way you want it

    I can not praise her enough

    I would def go for it
