It looks quite good because they link you to Google & Yahoo automatically and you can upload audio & video etc - has anyone tried it - its pricier than other options, but is it worth it? I've not had a website before and would need it for business purposes/publicity for music.

Do your own website using NVU, NVU is free to download and I taught myself. I did my own website for free! It is easy to submit your site to Yahoo and Google, I did it myself, instructions are available on the internet.

No! Yahoo's hosting seems to be not really cool...

Take a look at this page to see some reviews about it: http://www.hostingreviewsbyusers.com/yah...

No, Yahoo hosting adds code to the bottom of your pages that makes them break coding specifications (and to top it all off, it's a tracking script). I'd recommend against using them as your host.

If you're looking for online website creation tools, you could try using a bigger company to host, like 1&1 or GoDaddy, but really no automated website creation tool is going to get you a website as good as a standards-based site that's made by a professional.
