Free web design for local businesses
I want to improve my web designing skills so was thinking about offering to make a simple website for local business for free.
Is it best to host the site myself or get them sorted with a free (or paid?) hosting company?
And what about getting them a domain name? Should I get them a domain name and ask for them to pay or just use a free subdomain or something?
I'm guessing that some of these companies won't know much about the internet so wouldn't know how to sort these things out themselves. I don't really want to say it's free then suddenly ask for money for these extra costs!
