Google Sites allows you to create websites quickly and easily.

No prior knowledge of HTML coding is needed to get started and it is free of charge.

You can also purchase a domain name and assign it to Sites, although, if you are considering purchasing a domain name, it may also be worth investigating Google Apps Standard Edition as it offers a larger storage capacity for Sites (100Mb versus 10Gb) and bundles the associated features together (e-mail, calendar, documents) inside your domain name.

"How much Storage do I have [with the different versions of] Sites?"
