I have to install an outside light for my house that currently has none. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might go about this or how hard it might be? I have only limited experience with doing electrical jobs like replacing light fixtures or switches. Many thanks!

This is a common DIY project. If you have some technical ability, you should be able to do this. Go to your public library or home center. Obtain at least three books on home wiring. Read them all cover to cover. Then come back with any questions you many have. Everything will come out fine as long as you go into this prepared.
