Yes things have a tendency to take longer than that was previously planned, because we all extend our initial drawn borders, but things do come much better at the end. It'll be great to see the finished work.

About the website, there's one:
Netfirms Basic Free hosting:
http://www.netfirms.com/web-hosting/web-hosting-basic/
You buy a domain, like any .com, .net, whatever, it's on USA, you can enrol from here (UK) and from anywhere else, of course. Domain costs yearly I think 10 US Dollars, but you get the website and all hosting services free.
They offer (quoting from their website) :
25 MB Disk Space
1 GB Monthly Transfer
1 WebMail E-mail Account
24/7 FTP Access
FrontPage & Perl (CGI-BIN)
Customer Support via E-mail
(disk space and traffic is pretty decent. It's a secure company, I think no1 in the world, or one of them. Just check it see if you'll like it)
