I might not. Their own page:
<http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.2createawebsite.com%2F>
"Failed validation, 166 Errors"
...and it uses a Traditional doctype. New pages should be Strict. Use:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
Don't use XHTML.

This is correct. Never register you domain name with the same company
you use for hosting the site.
