There is another thread on here about gbbo.co.uk the Get British Businesses Online web site but as anyone will tell you, their past offering was shit!
Albeit a free .co.uk domain name the hosting and page creation was unusable even for people who became experts at tweaking the UI.
The end results looked like a kinder garden attempt at writting signs in Letraset .
In fact Google should have held its head in shame as they hosted the sites and web creation apps and even screwed up the cname so www.mydomain.co.uk worked but mydomain.co.uk got you an error.
Its all change now. Google hosting got fired.
Still free co.uk web domain and the only verification is a UK mobile but the hosting is now with Yola.
Not the perfect solution as there is no ftp access but if your new to web design you can knock up a half descent page in the time it takes to drink a coffee and they throw in a £30 ad word voucher.
So long as your not selling something like insurance, sex, midgets (det) where the cpc would be £1+ a click the ad word voucher at a £5 a day cpc should put you on page one in the adds for a couple of days. (not the most cost effect way to do ad words I know) but you'll get the traffic rush that might inspire you to do more.
So all you need is a product or service that sells.
