I personally recommend ATSPACE.COM. The host is free and allows up to 50MB of webspace, FTP Uploads/Downloads and NO ADS! Most Free hosts don't allow CGI, PHP or ASP. Usually only HTML and JavaScript.\n\nATSPACE.COM\nhttp://www.atspace.com\n\nHere are two sites I've created on this host:\nhttp://tim8w.atspace.com\nhttp://tricountytitans.atspace.com

There are many good web designers, BUT good and cheap don't go hand-in-hand. You have to pay for quality! A good designer cannot be expected to work for nothing. You really do get what you pay for.\n\nBefore you hire someone to design it, interview them and look at other sites they have designed. Don't just assume they can handle it and don't just take the first person who comes along. Make sure they can really do whatever it is that you need! Also get references and call them! Ask about not only how good they are at the job, but also how easy they are to work with, how easy they are to get in touch with, how quickly they work, etc. When you decide on someone, come up with a written contract together so there is less chance of a problem later. Working w/o contracts is asking for trouble - on both sides. Remember to allow for ongoing payment since there will be constant updates and maintenance. A site like this is not just a one-time setup fee.\n\nTo find a designer, don't just look in the Yellow Pages. Many of the good ones don't even advertise because they get their work by word of mouth. You can find them by calling local printers who work with freelance designers (many designers do both print and web design) or ask around if you know local businesspeople. \n\nIf it's truly a new concept, you should talk to an attorney about it. Call for a free consultation and see if they can help you - and get a professional opinion. \n\nGood luck with the site.

if you are looking for free hosting, try geocities, they will provide free hosting, basic templates and an online editor, every thing to get you going and learn a bit on the way.\n\nif you are looking for more advanced site, you should try the same free hosting, but an advanced editor and maybe some free templates.\n\nif you are using a posix OS, try bluefish (great editor but only for mac and linux ... sorry)\n\nanother great editor is NVU this one does run on windows and provides some templates for you to start up\n\ni could mention more editors but that's the best free one for windows.\n\ni leave a link for free templates

The best site out there for helping you design and operate a website to professional standards is the Sitepoint website. You can find it at:\n\nhttp://www.sitepoint.com\n\nI've followed the site since before it was Sitepoint (was webmaster journal or resources or some such back in the 90's) and it's hands down the best. Many professionals and really smart entrepreneurs and techies hang out in the forums and the entire community is very helpful. They even have a forum where you can request other members to look over your site and offer their opinions which is great to help you stay on track. The articles range from basics to very technical, but all are well written and if you're the least bit computer-savvy, most will walk even beginners through some fairly complicated steps with ease.\n\nIf I had only website that I could visit to use as a resource for web design, web development, coding, eBusiness and eMarketing...this would be it. The guys who operate it started their own press and they've put out many great books over the years. I say this as someone who majored in eBusiness, worked as a PC tech, has a military background in technical intelligence and communications, authored an IT column, and has been building sites and consulting off and on for over 8 years.\n\nIf what you really meant by your question was "How can I have a cool Flash website?" then I would suggest you hit your favorite search engine and look for "Flash designers, Flash design" and see what services they offer. If you're into do it yourself, I'd suggest enrolling at a local college and taking a Flash course to get you rolling in the right direction--but only if you're a bit artsy and patient and willing to read up on good web design and accessibility standards and practices on your own. Otherwise, Flash designers are everywhere, which means it's a buyers market (i.e., you can hire one without going into the poorhouse for 20 years). \n\nGood luck with your endeavors.

Macromedia Dreamweaver, with Fireworks and Flash are my favorites.  Also Adobe Go Live used to be ok.  Then there's Microsoft Frontpage, Microsoft Publisher, Microsoft Word even.  I'm sure there are others, but those are the most popular.

Cinemanow.com seems to be a custom product written in ASP.Net.\n\nFor your purposes, however, osCommerce will most likely suffice: \n\nhttp://www.oscommerce.org/\n\n___________

I personally don't like online WYSIWYG editors. If I were you I'd use frontpage and I get my hosting from ReliableSite.Net...super happy with them!

Webdesign can be a lot of fun to learn, however it's very time consuming.  Different professionals go different directions... Linux based and Windows Based.\n\nLinux is more of CGI, Python, Perl\nWindows is more ASP, ASP.NET, .NET (which is how I design all my websites.. if it's good enough for companies like Jaguar, it's good enough for me)\n\nThere is also software.\nYou can learn stuff like FrontPage, Coolpage, LiquidFX, and you can be ridiculed by professionals.\nOr you can use the industry standard which is Dreamweaver.  It's the best, hand's down.  Anyone whose been in the business on a professional level will tell you to go with Dreamweaver.\n\nYou need to know basic photo editing.\nFireworks, Photoshop, JASC and Corel, all provide great photoediting software.  JASC for it's money ($99) will work just fine for basic web editing.  \n\nSo, from my standpoint if you know the following setup, people will be crawling to you...\n\nASP.NET\nASP 3.0\nHTML 4.0\nCGI / PERL\nPython\nPhotoshop CS2\nDreamweaver 8
