If you dont have this figured out by the golf outing, let me know. I can help you then. Takes too long to type out. Other than saying use godaddy or intuit.

Don't know about designing but make sure you register & own the domain name under your name. Some companies that build will set up your site but register the domain name under there biz and you're at their mercy and it's a bitch to get it switched over (been there) :0008

Wordpress has a pretty simple Control Panel for updating a website which may be good for you if you will be the one changing information on the site.

Remember this is very basic. I have designed two websites using Wordpress specifically because the end user wanted to have control on content daily. Poke around and see if it is something you think you could do

There are a plethora of videos on creating the website in wordpress El Guapo - The one above talks about from purchase to page which most computer nerds tend to leave out

Best of Luck

If you haven't got the domain name yet 1&1 has them on sale for 99 cents for the rest of the day. It's pretty simple to do it with a template. If you want a fancy one with all of the bells and whistles I would recommend hiring a programmer that knows html and java. You can find one easily at elance.com. I have done many and could work as a web developer if I wanted to, but I choose not to. I'd rather do sales, web programming is a pain in the ass and monotonous.

just pay someone who know what there doing:0074

Yeah, I went ahead and did the goDaddy thing and what a pain in the ass.




I did get the domain name I wanted. www.itsyourfloors.com I uploaded some photos and what not and godaddy also is easy to use google ads with and such but I suck at this crap. for instance I have no idea how to crop my logo onto my background picture. ughhhhh!!!:scared

Joker,
If I can make it up there I may have to take you up on it, I suck at this shit.


I wish I would have just waited but I only spent forty bucks for two years of it. Great two years of a Neanderthal website. :facepalm: :facepalm:

Jack or IE,
Sorry about the link but you can delete it after everyone looks at it.:0074

I used to own a web dev company for small businesses. I'd be happy to get you going free of charge.

Figure a weekend fishing and cold beers for 20 hours of work is a fair trade.

Let me know.

I can have a flooring template up by Sunday.


The one thing you are going to have to provide to me or any is content content content... contact, photos, dialogue...

Heres an old questionnaire to get an idea of the work you'll have to do. The good thing is its all in your head so just start writing it down pen and paper. I found that is easier for the non tech types than key strokes.

cameras today make it easy to capture ideas on paper.


Good luck if you decide to go elsewhere.

Brother, I fucking love you bro... I got one started and it is very sad and needs improvement in a big way. If you want I will give you the sign in code or whatever you want and I can give you all the content you need brother. Holy shit this is the worst mistake of my damn life trying to do this shit.

My email is my sign in name here and the year 2002

Hit me on yahoo or gimme a call this weekend jack has my number or I will give it to you too when you mail me.

You are a life saver and you can have a week of fishing and beers brother.:00hour :00hour :00hour :00hour :00hour
