Default Website templates

Is it best to purchase website templates or just use like Godaddy has and pay them for the set up ( 4.99 per month for website tonight )?

I have used front page and did some of my own years back but dont want to go through all that just for a simple website for myself.

Ideas please?

If templates, suggestions where to buy them or who to buy them from?

Right, you need a premade shopping cart. One I like a lot is CS-Cart.com, but there are tons of shopping carts out there, some better then others.

As for a simple family site, sure go for the template. Or even start up a blog. (wordpress.org)

The only templates I've bought are for another forums of mine, or blogs I have. I've had custom work down from Elance.com which usually turns out nice. Just do a Google search for website templates, free website templates if you want to go that route.

There are tons of very nice free templates out there. I suggest you search for free css templates. You want css because it allows you to change the look of all your pages with just one edit to the css file.

Also you should have a logo and several sized banners done for you site. Then incorporate the the logo into your index page and interior pages.

Generally you want two templates, one for the home (index) page and one for all your interior pages.
