Nasir? :-)
Let?s start with what a website is?
A website is a collection of web pages saved on a server( known as web server)that runs 24x7x365(Server that is running all the time ). A web page is what you see on the screen when you type in a web address like http://www.yahoo.com, click on a link, or put a query in a search engine. A web page can contain any type of information, and can include text, color, graphics, animation and sound. For example, when you type www.yahoo.com you see the yahoo?s webpage and that is the default page of domain yahoo.com which opens first and so it?s called the yahoo?s home page.
What is a web server? A Web server is a computer that holds the files for one or more sites. A very large Web site may be spread over a number of servers in different geographic locations. IBM is a good example; its Web site consists of thousands of files spread out over many servers in world-wide locations.
So in other words we can say ?A Web site is a related collection of World Wide Web (WWW) files that includes a beginning file called a home page?.
A website is typically written in HTML, which is almost always accessible via HTTP, a protocol that transfers information from the Web server to display in the users Web browser. And hence when in the browser you type www.netflix.com ,browser automatically change the address as http://www.netflix.com/ . Which means the website Netflix.com is accessed by http (hyper text transfer protocol) and the forward slash added in the end of the address is telling the web server to transfer the home page of website netflix.com.

| Web Address |
So the first step in creating a website is to register a Domain name. Now to understand the domain name registration you have to first understand the Domain Name System (DNS) for a deep knowledge of how website works?
Domain Name System is the global address book for internet just like the phone book in your cell phone. So when you have to call your friend you actually find his name in address book and dial his name but it?s his phone number which is dialed and connected to same way each website also has an address on internet by which it is accessed and that address is known as IP address and typically written as 31.124.56.80 so if you have to open a website you can also type the IP address of that website in the browser and the browser will open it for you. Normally this IP address is always the IP address of the web server where the web pages are held or hosted. But remembering the IP address of any website is not easy so the concept of DNS came and it actually maintains the name and IP address of the entire website in the world and translates the web address in text format into IP address.

But remembering the IP address of any website is not easy so the concept of DNS came and it actually maintains the name and IP address of the entire website in the world and translates the web address in text format into IP address.
DNS server is the IP address that we set in the computers network connection settings that is contacted every time we type any website address in the browser and try to load it.And you wont believe that every DNS server also has its another DNS server address set in its network connection settings.The DNS system is, in fact, its own network. If one DNS server doesnt know how to translate a particular domain name, it asks another one, and so on, until the correct IP address is returned.
So to reach another person on the Internet you have to type an address into your computer -- a name or a number. That address must be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN coordinates these unique identifiers across the world. Without that coordination, we wouldnt have one global Internet. So managing, maintaining and administrating the domain name and IP address and other associated services with it are called Domain name system. Picture below is an excellent example taken from website howstuffworks.com on how DNS works.

| DNS System |
{This picture states that when a user types a name of a website in his browser and hits enter to open any website. The browser first sends the request to DNS server to check the IP address for the website which is the IP address of the hosting Web Server once your browser gets the IP address of hosting web server it then sends the get page command to website hosting server and website hosting server then fulfills the request by sending the home page of that website.}
Domain name registration and administration is mainly carried out by the one international body named Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN),it coordinates with Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) functions, which are key technical services critical to the continued operations of the Internets underlying address book, the Domain Name System (DNS).
You can also read about DNS at http://computer.howstuffworks.com/dns.htm.
But ICANN will not register a domain name for you because it has accredited many companies to act as a registrar so you have to go to one of them. And a good example of them is godaddy.com which is an accredited registrar of ICANN. Few other famous accredited registrars are Namecheap.com, Amazon Registrar, Inc., BigRock Solutions Ltd. And register.com etc.So before registering a domain with any registrar, please check if it is accredited with ICANN.
I registered my domain with Namecheap.com because I found them best in terms of charges and services.you can also register your domain with Namecheap.com by clicking at this link, Register your domain with Namecheap.com.and I am going to show you the steps of creating a website from registering a domain to hosting a website using Namecheap and 000webhost.com because I did it with them.
So the first step in creating a website is to go to Namecheap.com.And check if the domain name you have decided is available.So type in the name of domain( mydomain.com) in search box and then click search as shown in the picture 1(a).
 |
| 1(a) |
Now if that domain is not available it would not give you the option of buying rather it would show you the option to make an offer as its going to buy it from the existing website owner as shown in the picture below.
 |
| 1(b-1) |
 |
| 1(b-2) |
 |
| 1(b-3) |
 |
| 1(b-4) |
Pic-1(b) - now when I searched a different domain. That domain regbuildforme.com is available so It gives me the option to buy that domain for $10.69/year. so I would click on add to cart button and then click On view cart once it shows in the cart on right hand side. then select the no of years you want to purchase that domain for and then click confirm order and then it is going to ask you to login with your existing user ID and Password if you have, otherwise create an account by filling up the information and then you will be redirected to payment method page so you have to select a payment method like by credit card, debit card or by PayPal account. So fill in the card details and click continue at the bottom, verify the payment and once payment is confirmed you will get a mail from Namecheap.com in your registered email which will have all the necessary information about your purchase and login.
So now you have purchased a domain but you still don?t have a website because your domain does not point to any website on any hosting web server. So you will have to get a hosting account to host a website.In other words that means you have to buy space on a Web server (Which runs 24*7 and can be accessed anytime from anywhere) to keep your webpages so that it can be accessed online anytime. So by now you should have your website written in HTML language and should be ready. Keep all these WebPages in one folder and now get a hosting account. You can also get hosting account from Namecheap.com.
Host Your Website Free Now
Here in this article I am going to show you free website hosting option on 000webhost.com which is one of the best options to host your website free of cost so you just pay for domain. Which means even if you register a domain for $2.95 from Godaddy.com and using free hosting account you are just spending $2.95 .To register a domain with Godaddy now click on this banner below.

Now you just need to go to your domain registrar and you need to change the DNS settings of the registrar to point your domain to the 000webhost server. It?s very simple you just need to change the DNS server address of your Namecheap.com registrar to the DNS server of 000webhost which are normally ns01.000webhost.com and ns02.000webhost.com but I would recommend you to better check that in account details by going into the C panel of the 000webhost.Refer to the picture 1(f) below for more information.

Then click on the first option ?Your Domains/Products? on the right hand side. And then you will see the list of domain you have registered as shown in the pic 1-(i). So click on the domain name you want to modify the settings for.And then on next page look at the left hand side menu options for Domain Nameserver setup link as shown in picture1-(h) and click it to change the DNS server to ns01.000webhost.com and record 2 as ns02.000webhost.com and you are done.
Bingo!! Happy hosting?
Now after changing this value your domain registrar may take few hours to update the records.Once the records are updated the 000webhost will start displaying your page and your website is ups and running.

The Growth of Todayƒ??s Website Designing Industry
The Growth of Todayƒ??s Website Designing Industry
Interestingly, the first versions of HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) enabled only basic content structure: headings (<h1>, <h2>, etc.), a few paragraphs (<p>), and a few links (<a>). The later versions of HTML however included images (<img>) on pages, and eventually supported tables (<table>) as well.
During 1994, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) was formed, and this consortium set HTML as the standard for marking up web pages. This almost prevented any individual organization from building a proprietary browser and programming language.
Since its inception in the mid-1990s, web design and development have been one of the most rapidly growing industries in the world. In fact, during 1995 there were fewer than 1,000 web development companies in the United States. A decade hence there were over 30,000 such companies, just in the U.S. alone.
Web development is today a broad term and can range anywhere from developing the simplest static single page containing plain text to the most complicated web-based internet applications, e-businesses, social networking sites, etc. One of the foremost reasons influencing this growth of the web design industry is the decline of costs for creating and managing a website.
Today?s Internet has become an effective tool for interaction, communication and even business growth. Website development has ceased to be costly, and there are a large number of small web developers who offer their services at very affordable rates. The growth of the web design industry was fuelled by companies using the web as a business tool to sell their goods or services. The emergence of electronic commerce (e-commerce) has contributed a spurt in the growth of the Web design industry. E-commerce sites have dramatically altered the way people buy or sell goods, making trading much easier and convenient than ever before.
Another classic example of transformation led by web development is blogs. Open source content management systems (CMS) such as Joomla!, Drupal, XOOPS, and TYPO3, along with enterprise content management systems such as Alfresco, have carried web development into totally new spheres of interactive communication.
Social networking websites such as Facebook and Twitter offer users a platform they can communicate freely with one another, and this is also changing e-commerce through the number of hits and online advertisements.
Advertising on the web is also developing into a multi-million dollar industry, as advertisements in one form or another are invariably available on every page of a website.
Today, many web development companies have well-trained and skilled professionals who offer excellent services and have earned exceptional reputations around the world. With competition getting fiercer every the day, and with there being a proliferation of websites, effective SEO practices are also becoming necessary. It is a fact that online businesses and their unique web designs are the KEY to commanding a lot of attention and respect from today?s Internet visitors.
