Is there a cheap way for me to set up a website?

I%26#039;m setting up a business and need to have a website up and running urgently but budget is limited and I can%26#039;t afford to pay web design companies lots of money. I%26#039;ve heard that there are ways of doing this yourself, but what are they? Can anyone recommend a good site for making your own website (by the way I know about having to have a domain name... mine will be a .ie one if that makes any difference and also know about having to have a web hosting company - just have problems with the design) and maybe what%26#039;s been your experience of them? Advice greatly appreciated.

Hello,



You can use a thing called Content Mangager System(CMS) for your site. Most CMS%26#039;s use Mysql and PHP so your web host will have to support PHP and Mysql before you can use one.



My site http://chaoticpulse.com uses Joomla a free CMS. There are other such as phpNuke, Droopla, Mambo, etc each with it%26#039;s own layout. You can even download themes to change the layouts for popular ones like phpNuke and Joomla.



A content mangager is a great solution to your problem because you don%26#039;t need to know how to build websites in order to use it and updating is a snap too. Best part is there are free CMS%26#039;s so you don%26#039;t have to speed thousands to some web developer build you one.



I use http://hostmonster.com which is about $5.00 a month and offers a free domain name. It also uses Cpanel which comes with a thing called favico that has alot of common CMS%26#039;s already installed(you just select which one you want).

Other Replys:Host it yourself.



I host numerous sites right now.



It costs nothing as long as you own your domain and already have a decent high-speed connection.



As far as designing it goes, just use a premade CMS. Either Joomla or aspNuke depending on the platform you%26#039;re running. They have easy to understand interfaces, and everyhitng can be done online without really having to change any code.



Other Replys:let me know what you%26#039;re looking to do and maybe I can give you a deal.
