Creating a web page?

I am new to creating web pages and I have one on freewebs.com but I need advice on what the best host is so that I can get a domain name and what is the best software program for beginners that Novices can also use for when I get more practice?

http://www.netfirms.com is near to be the best hosting provider considering price-quality ratio.

Adobe Dreamweaver (Ex Macromedia Dreamweaver) is the best tool availabe todays (in the past too) to author the web pages. Its latest version is CS3 and previous was version 8, both are good.

Simply The Best Web Hosting Company Period!
