Looks like you're looking not so much for a place to host it as advice on creating it. So, first off... go see what your library has as far as books on HTML/XHTML, the languages used to create Web pages. I personally recommend Paul McFedries'
Complete Idiot's Guide to Creating a Web Page & Blog for its down-to-earth, aimed-at-beginners tone, but if you're generally tech savvy, any book on the subject will do. Even if you plan to make your site using some type of third-party utility like Expression Web or Dreamweaver (note: I do
not recommend even touching Fireworks; it's like a Web design program for kids or something), it helps to understand what's actually going on under the hood of programs like that, because there's a lot they can't do, or will do incorrectly.
After you've got that down, bookmark the
W3Schools website for reference material you can access anytime. They stay up to date with all the HTML/XHTML standards so you'll know you're getting the most relevant information. They're invaluable to me when I need a CSS (advanced design) cheat-sheet.
Then, of course, there's the rest of the Web, which can show you how to do all the cool stuff that's not immediately obvious how to do. Like, suppose you want to create a box on your page that has rounded corners, but isn't a specified, set-in-stone size all the way around. Just Google "rounded corners CSS" and see what comes up. There's no end of tutorials out there for cool stuff like that. But of course, you have to know what CSS is and how it works to get much out of them, which is why the book is so important.
Finally, there's Furtopia's own Web design support forum, which the Web design savvy among us visit with some frequency and will gladly provide troubleshooting and tips even if your site isn't hosted by Furtopia.
