    GoHoster is a simple tool that makes it easy to create web pages for every internaut out there, both uninitiated and knowledgeable. The system entails no technical proficiency, and it is web-browser based.

    Great list! Another good option is Webs.com. You can create a free website for pretty much any purpose. But, what’s really nice is that they also offer a free small business website that allows you to sell products online.
