Hi All, I'm starting to get a good sense for the online business model I'd like to pursue, and realize I'll need my own web site and domain. While I have some experience hand coding html websites using notepad, I haven't done anything like that in years. I'm pretty rusty and there are so many new bells and whistles in websites these days that I have no idea how to recreate.
Long story short, I'm looking for a decent program to help me design my site. As I am not wanting to start my business needing to make up excessive start-up costs (ok, I'm cheap. I admit it...) I'm looking for the best free web design software out there. Any nominations?
As always, thanks all for your help and support!

Try checking out NVU.com - its a little outdated, but it works pretty good. You can get free templates at OSWD.org. You might also want to check out Weebly.com

Wordpress would be a good place to start. Not only is it free, it is also an open-source application for processing blogs. Just ask here if you find it difficult to install

You can install WP very quickly and easily if your web hosting company has Fantastico Deluxe.

Hi Dr_Boo,
You might look into a paid hosting account. They have templates and wizards. You might also look into SBI. They have the same as well as good online marketing info, tools, and a nice forum.
