I want to enable comments (like in any regular blog) but the site is static. How should I do it?
Is there a service to "host" comments (like imgur for comments for example)?

Disqus is a great option, and depending on the type of site Facebook Comments can make a lot of sense as well. Both will work on a totally static site.

Disqus is almost exactly what you're looking for. They give you a little snippet and it embeds a commenting system in your page. Used by about half of Tumblr and big sites like Engadget.

To gather all options:
Juvia is an open source alternative to Disqus. The problem is, you would need a server to host it yourself and the development seems to be stuck.
Disqus is very popular.
Facebook Comments integrates well with that social network. But it requires people to have a Facebook account.

Check out Isso, self-hosted and open source.

Even though Disqus is a good answer to the question, I also suggest the service Muut. They give you a snippet to include on every page to embed a commenting system. It seems to be a lighter option though.

I'm trying to get back into HTML & CSS coding and learn JS. I found so many tutorials which are very helpful, now I would like to develop some simple websites. Many years ago the only way to make subpages (I hope it is a correct translation) was to use iframe or just copy whole content from homepage (so with need of editing every page to change ex. logo or footer). What is the best way to do it now?
Typing "HTML CSS webpage tutorial" in YT returns a lot of awesome results, but it gives me only the solution how to make a design, not a website with working menu etc.
What do you suggest? I prefer to work on separate files instead keeping all code in one "index.html".
Thank you in advance,
Happy New Year!!!

I have no solution yet.
Nowadays different frameworks are used for that purpose. If you don't want to use one, the easiest way would be to still use PHP and use its include method to load "subfiles" like header, footer, navigation sidebar and other content / website parts that are identical on all pages.
BTW, just a note aboute a detail in your question: The "ancient" method for this didn't use iframes, but frames – that's a big difference: iframes load external webpages, frames (as parts of framesets) load parts of the own website.

This is an old problem but I fail to find satisfied answer. I create a repository with some html files. When I open it, I see the html source code instead of the rendered version. The example is here: Example.
What I want to do is that I see the rendered html webpage when I open the html files in my repository (not source code). I searched the answer online, some people said that it's impossible since Github force it to source code. Is it correct?
I know Github page and https://htmlpreview.github.io/, but they are not what I expected. The reason is that they try to create a new url link. I think that RawGit does the similar thing.
Do you have any idea to solve my problem? Or you can confirm that my idea is infeasible. Thank you very much in advance!
Looks like you are going to need to use Github Pages:

They have a nice tutorial set up.

What is the best/most common way to create a website for a business? I would like to do the programming my self, and I don't want to do something like wordpress given the lack of full control. I've tried googling answers to this but all I find is sites recommending Wix or Wordpress. I've used Visual Studio in the past for ASP.NET, but I'd like to hear from someone with more knowledge.
My goal is to make a site would involve users being able to sign up and post results they have found, and although it sounds like something a cookie cuter forum model could handle there are some features that I don't see being able to handled by things like Wordpress or Wix.
"there are some features that I don't see being able to handled by things like Wordpress "
Not sure where you got this information from, but with a wordpress.org site, you can add or delete anything you want from a wordpress theme. All you need to do is create a child theme based on the parent theme you select and you can edit the child theme to your liking.
For more info, check this out creatingchildthemes
If you haven't installed WordPress yet, I made an easy tutorial marvelmoe.com/wordpress
One way you can do this is to make it on GitHub, by creating a repository and coding it there. Then,you can get a custom URL from GoDaddy. Then you will have a site. This is what I did to make my site, and it worked perfectly.

I've been wanting to make a website but I wanted to code it myself without using one of those website makers. Are there any ways of doing this? I would also like to publish it as well. Thanks.
1.Write your code and save it.
2.Purchase a domain and host it with ehost or something like that.
3.Upload your file. That's it.
[ehost provide hosting with free domain]
This is not technically an appropriate question for SO. However, you need to learn the basics of HTML. Start at W3 Schools. http://www.w3schools.com
You mentioned that you already know HTML. If you are just making static content, that will suffice. I strongly recommend learning CSS. While it is not technically necessary, it will make your life much easier. When you want to publish it, you will have to pay for a domain and a hosting service. Google Domains can help you with this.

I'm looking for information on how a person typical uploads the HTML file of there website to share with other users on message boards(Graphic Design forums)
I already have my original website live but have started to add features and have trouble fixing the problems. I have posted on numerous sites and all the members say they want to help but need to see the code live.
(Hard code) won't help or work for them?
Where do I upload the site? Would I then provide a link or url?
Being it's public forums I can't use a FTP program right? because they could do anything afterwards to my site having the username/password.
I'm just very lost,doing a preview in firefox with Dreamweaver cs6 is so simple but trying to share with everybody makes no-sense.
thank you
So it's just plain HTML/CSS/JS?
Use http://jsfiddle.net/
If your website is already live and on the web, you don't need to upload anything. All anyone needs to do to see your code is to look at your site with a browser and press CTRL+U to see the live html, javascript, CSS etc.
Unless there is a special reason they need to see static code ~ which you can easily upload to http://pastebin.com/ ~ that should suffice.
