My project this fall is to re-do my website. Totally re-do. The existing one has served me well for six years, but I'm ready for something else. Unfortunately, the programming that my current site uses was designed by a small company that was bought by a larger company that will continue to host it, but does not have the ability for me to make a new website with that old programming (which is a very simple program). So I'm totally not familiar with any other website programming. I have several questions:
1) I found a website that has several templates that you can purchase: http://templates.entheosweb.com/Bed-&-Breakfast.asp?page=1. Am wondering if anyone has gone this route to do their own website? I just can't afford for someone to design it for me, so am looking for the most economical, but professional looking way of doing it. (sorry - I don't know how you hide what the webpage is when providing a link)
2) The templates can be edited in DreamWeaver, Front Page or Expression Web. I am not familiar with any of these? Is one easier than the other, or have more capabilities?
2) Once I decide on a template, get things going and in place, can I use any hosting company to host the site? Do these companies have to recognize the language that is used for designing, or is it all pretty standard now?
I'm sure I'll think of more - this is a big undertaking, but my slow season is coming up, and I need to do this. Thanks for any advice.
