I dont know a whole lot of coding so Im planning to start with a template or if I come across a site that has the set up im looking for I will I will build from that tweaking images, text....
I dont plan to do anything real fancy basically I want a bio page, contact page, and something like a news feed or blog where I can post videos from my vimeo and to post about current projects, finished projects, and pics. I want the site to be clean but not busy I'd rather have my work make more of an impression than get the viewer overwhelmed by the"coolness" of my site.
Thats basically exactly what im looking for in my site.
I have definitely checked out hostgator it was open in my browser for about a week, although Mercer's suggestion of bluehost looks pretty good as well.
I will.
Thanks, I may have to take you up on it one day. I dont plan to have the site up running for another couple months.
So what it sounds like is Im going to have to do is build a blog on wordpress or what not then redirect it to the rest my sites domain host and use it as my front page then have buttons for contact, bio , etc....
Thanks for all the help everybody and suggestions are still welcome
