Hi Billy,
You can download BlueVoda now, take your time building your site and then sign up for your VodaHosting account when you are ready to publish.

Obviously, to ensure that you get the domain name that you want , especially if it is important to your business idea, then you should buy your domain name soon.

It was the wrong section, but no worries - you will leaarn to find your way around. Welcome!

thanks

Yes in order for you to have working links you have to publish your site. Links use URLs and they work on the web so cannot work until you have published. Publish and construct aren't the same. You can build or construct your pages, get most of the hard work done. When you have done what you can and need live testing then that's the time to set up your VH hosting account. Of course you will have tweaking and fine tuning to do so you will just edit your pages and republish until you are happy.

NB, Remember to size your pages properly. The best width is 800px which you should then centre in your browser (by checking the box in page properties). Whatever you decide DO NOT take it wider than 1000px. Sideways scroll is a no no.

Good luck, Billy.
