Re: need to build a website
Where will you be hosting it?
If you have a server with php and MySQL database then use a content management system to built it

Seriously, cheapo / freebie options almost always without fail look dreadful, don't work, can't be found by search engines and are a complete and utter waste of your effort. Trust me - we get loads of them to fix! |

WordPress is very easy to setup.
Find a theme which isn't too 'bloggy' and use that. Here is one i made earlier... See what I did there? www.florenceberry.com |

Re: need to build a website
I agree with JamesMio, if it is for personal stuff, then wordpress or some other cms with templates will be ok. If it is for a business, get it done professionally, it really does show if you cut corners.
Have a chat with JamesMio, and if he can't help you give me a PM. |

Another vote for Wordpress here. Easy to get to grips with and can look great. I've used it for many a client site and no complaints.
