I have had web pages since the early 1990's. First it was a page at school, then a page with my dial-up company, then my new dial-up company. I was helping with my community's website and one of the members was a partner in a web hosting business. He hosted my website for free. I only had to pay to register the domain. Can't beat free. I do everything by hand.

If you don't have a template, I would suggest starting simple. Build a website with about five pages (Home, About Me, Pictures, References, Contact Me). The Home page would be the welcome page and link to the other pages. About Me - What do you do, clown, juggle, face paint, etc. The areas that you work (how far you will drive for a party) Professional training or organizations that you belong to. Pictures - Pictures of you in action, faces you have painted, ballons, etc. References - quotes from happy customers. Contact Me - Your name, address, phone number, email address, etc. so people can book you for their party.

Check out what other clowns/magicians/entertainers have on their websites. Don't copy them, but use them for inspiration.

If your son's friend can't help you get a basic website posted, I may be able to help.
