I've used a number of services, DreamHost is a cut rate but highly functional company that seems pretty good so far for the kinds of sites I've built. They support multiple domain names on a single account without extra charges, which is great.

building such a website from scratch, would be a tough as well as time consuming task..to make it professional and secure, and to debug, it will take a months to build a website like e-bay..\nthe easier way would be to use CMS desinged to handle online shopping.. some of CMS are free while some are available for purchase.

Yellow pages\n\nDo you have some friends that want something built, do it at cost and use that as advertisement with placecards at the work site.\n\nTarget companies that could use your services, make a deal to get your foot in the door.

There are many sites that will give you a website for free.  Geocities is one of them, I would do a search on yahoo for free web sites.  If you want your own domain name yahoo has great rates on those.  I great web hosting company that is reasonably priced is http://www.startlogic.com . They have several different packages to choose from, and have great built in applications for a business context.  Hope that helps, if not you can always email me at jbradley4000@yahoo.com

yes they are really good, clean - no ads etc\n\npages.google.com or yahoo geocities is ok and freewebs is not bad either ,\nits sort of free hosting, but you are limited to a subdomain on googlepages & geo has ads on your website - otherwise I would use http://www.interkeys.com/tophosts to get one for a few bucks a month with 500 GIG bandwidth and the rich with features\n\nits up to you how developed a site you want and if you want to use your own domain name

If you're looking for a totally free site, check out yahoo, geocities, angelfire, or my space. If you are looking for something a little more polished, there are lots of great tools out there that are helpful, including sites that offer templates and help you get started. I have been impressed with the tools and service of GoDaddy (www.godaddy.com). If you'd like to learn more about the process, consider buying this book, which outlines the process, step-by-step: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0764507206/103-8389304-7234204?v=glance&n=283155\n\nHere's some tips from http://website-design.mcdar.net/:\n\nSo you want to build a website here I will explain some simple but also key aspects that are commonly taken in to consideration when a website developer creates a website.\n\n1) Website Design - The website design must be neat meaning that everything looks like where it is meant to be (nothing out of place or out of proportion). Also your sites design is related to the topic of your website e.g. your site is about flowers then your design must have flowers.\n\n2) Site Navigation - Visitors must be able to get where they want to go without going through a maze a good way of putting it if you can get there in 3 clicks it should be fine. Also it helps when search engine spiders go through your site since it makes it easy for the spiders to index the site.\n\n3) Domain Name - Domain name is important since it is one of the first thing that your visitors will see. Your domain should relate to your site topic or business name. Length of the domain usually 6-8 characters is a good length and easy for visitors to type.\n\n4) Scroll Bars - don't make your website pages too long so your visitors have to scroll for hours it is also a good option to just create another page and don't make people scroll side to side.\n5) Returning Visitors - make your visitors return to your site by adding one or all to your site:\n\n- Email Newsletter (Ezine)\n- Community Forums\n- Online Tools\n- Online Games\n- Useful Content\n- Competitions and Prizes\n- and so on\n\n5) Website Logo - Make your logo unique and brandable so that people will remember your logo and then will remember your site and products.\n\nThese are some simple points that you may take into consideration when you build your website if you need some further assistance have a look at your competitors website and see what they have done. Remember what you put in is what you get out of your website and on that note GOOD LUCK and enjoy the whole process of building your very own virtual property.\n\n\nAll that said, if you'd like something simple and quick, here's the company that made my website, and they charged me less than $300. I knew nothing about doing it, but it came out great and they guided me every step of the way: www.wordtechs.com.\n\n\nGood luck with your new venture!\n~Tia~

Consider http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/ - it is excellent; or if you have no budget then consider www.blogspot.com - you cansetup your own template and can do reasonable amount of hosting.\n\nNot recomended to setup your own service.

You could try either Yahoo 360 or Geocities.  Both are free and easy to build pages on.

try going to sba.gov, it is the small business administration website, and it has all kinds of info on running a business, and i know there are tutorials for writing business plans, so probably something or a link to something that will help you. Also, bids submitted to government agencies are probably public record...why not see if you can access some construction bids to see what type of format they use? hope it helps
