I am an internet marketer, so I know that it is also helpful to be able to capture your visitors email addresses so you can inform them of specials or coupons.
once you have a website you should see an increase in sales because you will be able to print out fliers and hand them out around school
you can visit the link above to set up a free website, but save your money because it is worth it to purchase a domain because it will help you get even more sales, it will also be easier to track your customers purchases.

You may want to look into setting up a homestead.com website which is a complete ecommerce do-it-yourself website with credit card based shopping carts. The monthly hosting fee starts around $10.00. And before you publish your domain name/website, you may want to read the following article from Google.com on how to set up proper SEO metatags.
The most effective way to advertise on the Internet is
to first set up a website and publish its domain name
on major search directories such as Google.com,
Yahoo.com [at http://www.google.com/addurl/?...... and
MSN.com since 85% of Internet shoppers rely on these
search directories to provide them with goods and
services. In a sense, these search directories are a
very large Internet Yellow Pages.
Nevertheless, should your website or opening webpage
fail to contain "generic" keywords, then anyone using
such "generic" queries will not be able to discover
your website. Your domain name [URL] of your website,
in a sense, will be invisible, undiscoverable.
You may want to consider some simple algorithms which,
when observed and committed in designing of a website
with placement of various critical metatags that can
surely achieve a high search engine presence and
increase Internet traffic to your website. These
metatag strategies work well with published webpages
at Google and Yahoo.
Design: Should you create an extensive Flash-based
website, make sure to fill-in the property entries
such as the Title, Description and Keywords. Failing
to do so, leaves no hard HTML or ALT resource that can
be readily indexed by search robots. Also consider the
Internet audience and their incoming setup. For
example, if they are on analog/dialup, Flash webpages
take too long to load up and therefore analog users
will likely lose interest and discontinue entering the
Flash site. On the other hand, anyone on hi-speed DSL
lines, will welcome Flash pages which load quickly. So
before designing a pure Flash websitge, ask the simple
question, “Who’s my end user – is he on dialup or
DSL?” And if you had to choose between these two users
for maximum marketability, then select analog users
since 80% of most resident users are still analog
Internet subscribers and pure HTML designed webpages
is best for them.
A non-Flash-based website which relies on hard text,
is far easier to be indexed by search robots. Limit
the use of stylized text saved as .gifs since as a
graphic, they are not indexable by search robots.
Avoid use of frames since any number of search robots
are unable to properly classify textual material.
Placement of Metatags:
A ranking or search order does take place with Google
and Yahoo and it begins with the “Title” metag which
should consist of no more than 65 characters separated
by commas. The “Title” should describe in generic
terms, the goods and services, followed by a location
from which the resource is located, i.e., city, state.
The placement of a domain name which is not generic
within the “Title” is not appropriate, unless your
domain name is a major recognizable brand name.
The second metatag is the “Description” which is
usually 25-30 words to form a complete sentence which
best describes one’s goods and services.
And the very last category – “Keywords” are also
somewhat limited to 15-16 words which can be plural
and compound in nature. Again, avoid multiple entries
which could be mistaken as “spamdexed entries” which
is defined as the loading, and submission of
repetitive words into a particular metatag category.
“Spamdexing” when discovered on a webpage and reported
to Google’s spamreport.com can result in the
elimination of your website from their search
directory.
Good luck!

The DIY is the cheapest way to go. You can get free software that offers ‘click and drag’ or copy and paste’ functions. There are a number of good servers and hosts to use, but check their services before purchasing hosting. There is a great list of services at http://www.guideofwealth.com/rgcomputers
You can even get a site for $20 on there if you don’t want to do it yourself.
There are also plenty of free hosts out there, but if you go free, they will put ads on your site.

I agree on DIY. It’s cheaper anyway it’s easy to do that. The hosting company I use offers free sitebuilder, 1 click installer to scripts like forums etc. Not to mention free professional templates.
