Well what I think we can offer is on two tiers:

The first tier is like a framework where the layout is quite fixed, but you can add as many pages as you like within the framework. An example of this is what Chris 1066 has been testing for us.
An example: http://www.RootsChat.com/history/hastings/
(the colours and the menu items you can change by the way)

The second tier is where we simply give you an username and password to "upload" your webspace, then you can do your own thing.

Also, we might also offer something in between the two which is a more sophisticated (but more complicated) system called Mambo which allows you to manage your own pages.

Whichever one you choose, it will be free, and on an incredibly quick webserver (with no popups either!)

I too would be interested.  I have had a website 'in the future' for a long time now - I too would need an 'Idiots Guide'!!!

Hi
We have 20 years of research on both our families.  I would love to put them one a website of our own, but don't know how.  I did try one on tribalpages as they did the work on setting it up. 
Would need help but would prefer to do one with Rootschat.  We might then be able to correct some of the incorrect info, placed by others on the web, re families.
Do you realise that you would end up with world wide genealogies.

Hope to see it.

Hello.
I'd love to be able to start up a Family web-page/site. I also would need my hand holding. I can't even find a valid BUNDY family crest.  ???

Fitty,

When we've moved the whole of RootsChat onto the new server then I can set you loose on it !

We will be able to install PHP/MySQL Packages for people, or offer FTP access for people - but not generally both to the same person (incase you crash our server)

If you have a particular requirement though then I'm sure we can accomodate it.
