My tip to add would be to go and make friends with your local camera store. I thought I knew exactly what I was going to buy but decided on a whim to go and look first. When I got there I found out that the tripod I had nearly ordered online just wouldn't have been tall enough to get the angles I wanted and that there were other heads much suited to my little hands than the one I had in mind. Happily the store also sells online so their prices were very competitive. I’ve just bought my first proper tripod using the fantastic advice in this article - thanks L!
