The problem with using google to answer an open-ended question like this is that it's very hard to sort the results. And it's not just the first question, that question will lead to more questions and you will waste an enormous amount of time asking lots of wrong questions and getting lots of bad answers.

Bad answers can be ad-ridden, no-content crap, bikeshedding pundits, obsolete documentation, overkill solutions, corporate labyrinth websites selling overkill solutions, incomplete fragmented mailing list archives, or material way too dense and advanced to be consumed without guidance. But they lead to frustration and often to more bad questions.

Sometimes the answers aren't bad, they're just decidedly suboptimal. If your friend wanted to make a website, and you left it up to them to go google the answer, there's a good chance they'll end up using GoDaddy.

Chances are if you see this question, it means someone thinks you, either individually or as part of some community, will give them better answers than a machine will.
