Gone through most of the messages in answer to R&W Rabbit.

However, my suggestion FIRST is to decide on WHAT you want the Web-site to say, and how you want to say it.

I mean: What is the purpose of the web-site? Is it just a place-holder? Something to give your company a presence on the 'web? If so, it can be fairly easy to put something up with your company logo, with an e-mail link along with the address and phone number.

If you want it to be used as a sales tool, that is a completely different purpose and a different design would be needed.

Start there.

I do recommend learning HTML, but you might not have the time to do it up right if it is to be extensive. Talk to the company first and decide what it is to be used for. It'll save a LOT of time and bad words later.

Speaking from experience.
