I buy and sell technology products, and I do it all locally.
I would like to have a website where a user can register an account, and only upon registering and being confirmed by me, they may view the content of the website.
I would like for the content of this website to be nothing more than a spreadsheet (similar to an excel spreadsheet) where I have listed the items I have for sale, and their condition.
Am I making any sense?

Anywho, how would I go about doing this?

Basically:
Register and Login required to view content (Spreadsheet that only I can edit)
Registration must be approved by me.


Thank you guys.

PS. I have no real coding knowledge.

e/ I know things like google docs already exist, I want something similar, but I want it to be my own.

I don't want anyone to have access to it without my permission. Can this be accomplished by Google docs?
Plus like I said, I'd rather it be my own. Isn't there some kind of embedded spreadsheet software out there that I can do this with?
I'd like to have my own host and domain, away from any possible intrusion of the general public

Then go to a webstudio to get a quote to get this done?
OR
buy a domain/host
learn html/css/php
do it yourself

You can use a web builder like Wix, then you can make you site invisible so no search engines can find it

register by inserting user/pass/whatever/verifyflag into a db
when they login only start session if credents are correct and verifyflag is set to 1

query like "SELECT id FROM users WHERE :username=username AND :password=password AND verifyflag=1"
check if session is set, if so, show your spreadsheet embedded from wherever
