How can I use PHP/HTML to start a very very basic social networking site?

I only want the users to be able to create a profile with some information, and be able to create events. Is this possible using PHP and HTML?

  1. You can start a community with php and html but you might need to know alot of php but there is a easier way you can either use a forum like VBULLETIN or PHPBB.
  2. It is possible. You'll also need a database like MySQL. Bear in mind that even a simple networking site will require a lot of planning. There will need to be scripts for creating, editing, and displaying profiles. All the info will need to be stored and organized in the database.
  3. You need to look at scripts at hotscripts.com or scripts.com . You might find one. If you look for web hosting, don’t rush into it. Read reviews about web hosting and decide properly before going ahead with web hosting. I personally will recommend you a web hosting which many people find it very reliable. It is hostmonster. Before deciding to sign up hostmonster, read the reviews and stats about hostmonster at the following website. http://www.hostmonsterreview.co.uk
  4. You will need to hire someone to create a social site script for you. I would like to suggest following webhosting which I use, they are excellent.
