Q: how do i publish my iWeb site without mobile me?

According to your signature you have iWeb '08: you will have to publish to a local folder, and then upload that to another server using an FTP program. Please see this page for more details:

iWeb V3 has two other ways to publish...

You will need to find a 3rd party web host. I personally use IX Webhosting and have been happy with them for several years now.

Depending on the version of iWeb you are using you have a couple of publishing options:

iWeb '09 (3.0.4) you can publish to an FTP Server or a local folder. ( With the built in FTP in iWeb you will end up with an address like "www.YourDomain.com/sitename/Home.html )

iWeb '08 you can publish your website to a local folder
