How did you do your website… - Posted by JB in MD

Hi all,

I know many of you have great websites, as I have visited most of them. I am basically HTML ignorant. I imagine that I could figure out how to use Frontpage, or some other web publishing software, but I don’t want to invest in the program if I shouldn’t. How did you all do your websites, yourselves, or have them professionally done? If you did do them yourselves, what is your opinion on the best software to use to construct it? Also, I know that I would then have to register/buy my domain name, so how do I do that? Once I have that space reserved, I know that I can then publish the creation to the web. I also know that I need to be interactive with the site as far as posting and removing pictures etc., so is it wise to have it professionally done, (read: do you have to pay them every time you want to change a picture/description, and would they create it for me and then show me how to update it myself?). If you had it done for you, what is reasonable to pay for the service of constructing and publishing my website. As always, all responses are appreciated,

Jason

Even though the web site creation tools are getting better every year, you would be much better off to have a pro do your site. They don’t charge much for a template-driven site. FrontPage, NetObjects Fusion, etc.

You do the real estate.

You will never be able to match a pro’s work, and your site will always look amateurish if you do it. Don’t take this as a challenge to do it yourself, because you can learn it! But you will make FAR GREATER money doing real estate.
