I want to expand my business by creating a website mainly to show pictures of cakes and answer emails from out of town clients.

I have no idea where to start. What site should I go through? What's a good price?, etc. I do want to be able to manage the site myself.

TIA

Weebly is great! Very easy to use...check out mine!

I have not yet launched my business. I'm currently just getting ready... For my website, I used Microsoft Frontpage software. My web hoster is my internet provider. With FrontPage, you can have a bit more control then some of the services that provide templates which are easier but less flexible. I'm good with the computer so had no problem with FrontPage, but if you are not comfortable with Windows style programming, using templates is probably better.

My website is www.sweetgrace.net
