Where is the best place to get a free small business web site & website building tools?

And -- is it necessary anymore to actually learn HTML to build and manage your own web site so you don%26#039;t have to hire a professional? I would so much rather manage my own web site and have complete designing %26amp; maintenance control.

I am a pretty good ametuer graphic design person. I want to find something that I can I can totally design my own web pages instead of using the generic designs that have very little design flexibility.

And I want to be able to upload my own logo and place it strategically myself instead of in the one spot that some web building tools allow. I want more flexibility than those building sites allow.

BUT ... I am also on a VERY limited budget.

Thanks for any help or suggestions you can give me.

if you have a limited budget, and you are a graphic design person... the best way is to do-it-yourself... the free way. :)

for creating web pages, you can use the free program called NVU, you can legally download it and use for free from http://nvudev.com

it is like a word processor kind of program, where you can layout your web pages visually.

for a place to upload your web pages, you can try http://kohost.0lx.net

signup for the free hosting package and you can upload your web pages to the free host.

email me if you need help. :)
