Is switching to another domain name is easy, hosting to remain as before.

Contact your host for this he has to modify you account information for that. Also you may loose your traffic and search engine position.

Switching to another domain name means a whole new site by itself All your visitors will have to be made aware of your new address. Switching hosting is simpler. You can have a look at the following posts on my blog on how to shift hosting. There are some more posts that will come on this topic as soon as I find some time

Shift website hosting - part 1 (static site)
Shift website hosting - part 2 (leftover emails)
Shift website hosting - part 3(1) (dynamic sites, CMS)

Int you can use some CMS for maintaining your web site. It doesn't really require any knowledge of any type of coding unless you want to do all kinds of personalisation.
But, it would be good to atleast learn HTML and CSS. They are easy to learn and very useful. W3Schools is a nice place to learn.

@ int86, first and foremost, throw out Frontpage. It simply sucks! Instead try out NVu. Of course, the best thing is to not use any such WYSIWYG editors and write the code.

Learn XHTML, CSS and some basic PHP. XHTML is little different from HTML but is the future. tech_your_future has given the link. Have a look.

Pop comes a question in my mind. I have a blog at blogger, which is redirected to a .tk domain name as u can see in my signature.
But I wanted to learn HTML and design pages for my own site. Now w3schools.com has very good tutorials, but where can I find a free host. If u visit my site, u can see I have not added any ADs, I don't like them.
So where can I find a totally AD free site host ?? My traffic/bandwidth requirements are not high though.

Sometimes CMS become complicated for the first timer.Drupal for example

Free hosting without ads will require forum posting. After all even they have their costs to cover! If you google, you will find plenty of free hosting options without ads. Some will give you a sub-domain/folder on their main domain, some will let you have your own domain.

Yeah no doubt there are some CMS's like drupal and civicspace can be a real mumbo jumbo for those who are relatively new to CMS's. And if there's a problem you'll never know what to do, if you don't know php.
But, does he have much options at this point of time when he doesn't even know HTML. So, even if he gets some templets from some good sites, he won't be able to customise it to his liking. So, will it be with the themes for CMS's.

Thanx everybody.

I think you can try yurx.com. Although I haven't had a vert satisfying experience (its too slow most of the times), you can try

Google will show you many more links
