Re: Where can I build a website before actually having a host or domain?

On your computer. Just save the files with a .htm or .html extension, and your browser will open them. Then when you do get a host all you need to do is ftp them up.

Re: Most reasonable domain name hosting sites...

Actually you mean domain name registration. Hosting is for websites. Namecheap.com has registrations for about $11 a year. You can get cheaper from some providers if you search for coupons.
