In all honesty it depends on what your target is. If you are looking at a myspace type thing you would of course need something A LOT larder than what you have lol. But for a small network that is good. What i would recommend though is that you go and check out the scripts that are floating around the net. They are a perfect place to start experimenting. just google “social network scripts”

As you may know a domain name is just a name, not a real website. If you are going to create your website: 1- Buy a domain name. To get a domain name, you have to pay an annual fee to a registrar for the right to use that name. 2- Buy a web hosting service to provide your online space and enable you to get your website online at your purchased domain name.
If you want to start your website I recommend purchase your domain and hosting together. In this way it is possible to get your domain for free. Some hosting services offer this gift today.
