Convincing the parents..
Well, I've been making freewebs sites for a while & got myself a subdomain a while ago. Now I really want to buy my own domain. The cost is no big deal, I can easily pay it myself. However, it has to go through their credit card & then I would pay them cash in return. So they need to know. How should I ask them? They're kind of weird about those things & might see it as stupid & might not like me having my own website. What are some things I can say to convince them to let me do it? I was just going to tell them i wanted my own space to do whatever with, it's cheap, & I've been reading about them & experimenting with free sites, etc. Any ideas?

I eventually resorted to getting my own web space and domain name (I now have 2 and plan on buying a further 2 or 3 in due time) because they were far more flexible than signing up to some site for web space.
The best way to convince them for starters is have the money on hand that it'll cost you. It shouldn't be much since most places charge you the domain name fee which is 1 or 2 years and then the fee for the domain space package you want which is usually on a per year basis. Have this money on hand and that way when it comes to buying it you can say you've the money on hand to pay back your parents when they buy the space and name for you through their card. :] This way they won't have any doubts about you paying them back and such. As for the reasons, you can simply explain that you just want some space on the Internet you can call your own (it's a great feeling having that bit of space to call your own which you can do anything with) as well as having the freedom to be able to experiment with web design and such without limitations that free web sites put on their domains (such as adding tons of popups and banners all over your pages).
I had absolutely no knowledge of html when I started. I read up some basic notes on html from my sisters university notes and from there began to develop my skills. I started off with free web sites as well but, as stated, they were very restrictive and limiting and there was no real freedom so I decided eventually to buy my own space and such. You can see my site via my column if you'd like. Good luck. :]

Ok gurl im going throught the same thing except i wanna got o lasvegas and day won't pay for it. look just tell them that you wanna have your own space so u got a website. tell them that they have to pay credit ,but then tell them that you will pay them back. Get out your money to give to them cause they might not believ words but truth. if u need your space then that's not a bad thing let them know that.
