I think that it's important to look to the best in order to see what the standards are out there. It doesn't mean that you should copy, but inspiration is always needed by creative people. It also means that you can recognise industry & design trends which is an important thing to grasp if you intend to make a career from this. \n\nThere are some really cool sites out there for designers, I have pasted a few below but the list is endless! \n\nAnother thing to note, is when you are just getting started, it's great to be able to look at a site & then look at the code to learn how it's done by the pros!\n\nHave fun with it!\n:o)

Website design process has got two phases.1)Design a website 2) Using some activity with this already designed website.\nFor designing website you should ask yourself, what are you going to do with this website? Is it only a communication medium or should that be a marketing tool to bring business? Accordingly you will have different approach.\n\nFor designing a simple website, you need to know how to use html, or you should have any of the website development tools like microsoft front office or dreamweaver etc. Then design a website. Secondly you need to register a unique domain name representing your business. The name is like your phone number once selected you dont want to change it often. It should be simple and possibly short so that laymen will not make spelling mistakes while typing it in the browser's address bar. Also, if this name reapresents the 'business' you are going to do, then it is better. It should be easy to remember.\nThirdly you need some server space with good security and proper server maintenance. \n\nIf you open any website and click on the "view-source" command  you can see the actual code used inside. This will give you an idea how a website is coded. Please dont violate copyright laws.Or you can buy some already developed templates (eg: http://www.ourwebsitedemos.com  .) and modify it. If you are good in learning, hard code one.Remember, it is better to use html code as search engines do not recognize graphics etc much. One more simple technique I can tell you: create a jpeg page using photoshop.. There is an option under file-save as command which will help you to save as a webpage. But it is better you learn the web designing using a guide book or even better under a tutor. You may search online and find free tutorials.\nAsk the assistance of the server company to upload the pages first time.\n\nOnce you decide the website you should promote that to bring traffic to it.\n1) you can tell all yoru friends 2) You may print and publish in your busienss cards 3) Publish in the forums 4) post ads in the free classified pages etc with the URL. 5) Do an email campaign without spamming. 6)Most importantly do Search Engine Optimization.\nFor doing search Engine Optimization (SEO), you should find out the actual keyword people use to find your or similar business online. There are tools available, but you should have a good logic also. Then you should plant these keywords inside your website pages preferably at the top of the html codes, as part of the meaningful sentences. Never plant only keywords. Build cross links to your page by sending requests to webmasters of other similar websites and also list other websites of same categories in your website. \nRead and observe everyday. Every day search engines are becoming more and more sophisticated. Only if your website improve the quality, it will be visited bye people.

I would start with w3schools.com.  They have a ton of tutorials and so forth.  Buy a few books as well. There are a *ton* of them out there.  Check out Amazon or BookPool.  You can actually code a website and open it in a web browser on your computer without having to upload it to a server.

I recently was approached by a friend of a friend to produce them a modelling website.  I said yes.\n\nWhat i didn't tell them was i had never done a web-page before!!  Well I downloaded a program called coffeecup that gives you fairly clean code (compared to Frontpage), and used its visual editor to start.  I then looked at the code it had produced to see what was going on.  After also looking up different HTML tags and how to do tables and such, it was much easier and i was now able to write HTML without using the visual editor.\n\nI then had to tackle PHP to do a few bits.  I used these websites to get what i wanted.\n\nhttp://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/index.phtml/fid/51\nhttp://www.zend.com/php/index.php\nhttp://www.devtek.org/tutorials/image_gallery.php\nhttp://www.webdeveloper.com/\n\nAnyway i went from knowing nothing to producing a website, with changing images, a web based contact form and a shopping cart (short list) in about 2 weeks of on and off looking at it after work.\n\nIt is more than possible to learn to do web design in short amounts of time.  Obviously for more complex features it just takes longer, but i have found all information available on the web that i need.  Certainly no need for a 10,000 course.  Also simply look at the source for websites to see what others are doing.\n\nGet a project to work on, research the web and do it!\n\nGood luck and enjoy.\n\nFor my small triumph, visit http://www.seenmodels.com

1) First determine the objective of your website...whether its going to be a online photo album or a page about you and your family or a page about your passions say sports ( :) )...\n2) Once you decide what you want to make it on decide what all you are going to put up\n3) Once you are sure about what all you are going to put up (eg what pics,what text ..what scripts will you be using and all)..search for a good free web host which supports these features (Features such as a ftp client which will allow you to upload your pics,supports the kind of scripting you want like flash,javascript,cgi etc..)\n\nsome good ones are geocties.com,lycos.com,\nbravenet.com,pages.google.com( you will need a gmail id for google pages )\n\n4) Lot of these free web hosts provide website builders which have predefined templates to allow you create a decent website easily and quickly..if you are satisfied with that..well and good..but if you want some more customization then I suggest you get a free WYSIWYG HTML editor such as NVU ..(if you have microsoft frontpage already well and good..its quite good)..\n\n5) Using the editor you can easily create a website ..learning a bit of HTML to improve the site appearance wont harm anything..\n6) If you really want to spice up your website then i suggest you can implement some javascript ...you can learn it and do it or download the scripts from the net and put it on your site..here are some sites which have a lot of good scripts with various functionalities\n\n1) http://www.javascriptkit.com/\n2) http://www.a1javascripts.com/\n3)http://www.java-scripts.net/\n\n4) http://www.javafile.com/\n\n\nsome good html tutorials for your reference are \n\nhttp://www.davesite.com/webstation/html/\nhttp://www.cmis.brighton.ac.uk/~mas/mas/courses/html/html.html\nhttp://founderweb.com/html_tutorial/\nhttp://www.w3schools.com/html/html_examples.asp\n\nHappy building

There are plenty of ways of doing that.  If you are good at coding with HTML, JavaScript, Flash, etc., you can build your website from scratch using software such as Dreamweaver.\n\nHowever, if you a newbee and just want to fiddle around there are plenty of websites which allow you to set up websites with freely available tools for which you don't require programming knowledge.  Some of these websites are Geocities, Tripod, etc.

Use a good template which you can easily edit. \n\nNormally all the designing is done on your computer and then uploaded to your server.\n\nTool such as MS Publisher will help you do this with ease. There are lots of other tools such as dream weaver etc.\n\nThere is no admin page as such, only admin mode with only access to you so that you can edit your site.\n\nPlease take some free webdesigning tutorials online.

Being a newbie myself I'm finding it extremely hard to building my own website. \nProblem is usually you want your site to be eye-candy and all so you want to master everything at once.\nSolution : follow step-by-step tutorials and on-line classes very carefully because even if you think you already know something it's not alwaays the case.\nThe best way to do, though, is to go ahead and start building your website and even if it will take time, you'll learn from your errors.
