Do some shopping. Find out what your needs are. See if you can do something yourself, or if you need to pay somebody. Site builder services are pretty terrible for anything beyond a personal website. You really need something you control, especially if you want to eventually sell stuff.

http://www.reddit.com/r/webhosting might be a good place to find out what host might fit you best.

interesting. good to know. stupid TV ads!

All you would have to do in the end is to copy your script and upload it to the web host.

i was actually looking into Dreamweaver. how do you like it?
