By the sound of it you sound like a 6th-8th grade boy?

anyway.. there are a lot of steps, you need to know flash, actionscript, and java, which isn't exactly easy.

People that don't know think it's just 1-2-3 to make a website that is very interactive, but there is A LOT of work put into it.

ClubPenguin probably costed in the 10,000's over all this time to make.

However, If you know nothing and want to keep knowing nothing you get buy a domain with hosting, and look into 'runscape private severs'

As you may know a domain name is just a name, not a real website. If you are going to create your website: 1- Buy a domain name. A domain name is a name you want to call your website (ex: www.yahoo.com). To get a domain name, you have to pay an annual fee to a registrar for the right to use that name. 2- Buy a web hosting service to provide your online space and enable you to get your website online at your purchased domain name.



If you want to start your website I recommend purchase your domain and hosting together. In this way it is possible to get your domain for free. Some hosting services offer this gift today.



As an experienced webmaster I recommend BH web hosting which I’m sure it would work for you and fulfill all your requirements. They have a really great offer for hosting & I have used them for over 3 yrs now, and have never had a single problem with them.

Can you figure out from this exactly how the resulting web page would look? This is about the simplest of pages incorporation HTML, PHP and JavaScript which would be absolute requirements for any kind of interactive website.

If you can't make sense of this, then you have a long way to go.
