web page design

[Daphne]

As you may have read, I'm starting my own business and want to get a website. What is the best way to do this? I've seen where you can spend lots of money on a website but then again it can be really cheap.

What do you suggest...Gabe???? Should I create my own or have someone else do this for me? Are there any tricks and special tips I should know? I'm a little nervous about this website design. Any help and advice you give is greatly appreciated!!!!!!!

daphne, i'd definitely do it yourself. hubby and i did his and i think it looks good. if you want to check it out, it is: www.fox4video.com if you have any questions, i'd be more than happy to help anyway i can. we pay for the domain name (really cheap) and monthly for the space ($4.95 a month).

I use Homestead-- you do your own design via a drag-and-drop program that they provide for you. My sites are non-profit, and I pay roughly $75 a year for the names and space. If you upgrade to a business package, it's a little more expensive. You can go here for more info: www.homestead.com

My sites:
http://www.activityprofessionals.homestead.com
http://sainttherese.homestead.com

I have more, but that's a quick peek at what Homestead offers.
