Dear DMF,

I got something cookin, and don't have a lot of money to spend on a website.  I need one nonetheless. 

I don't know a thing about it so DIY is out of the question.

A friend of my wife's does this and I will be talking to him, but I want to keep my options open.

I already bought the url.

This does not need to be a complex thing.  No shopping cart, just a main page with a few sub pages and email support.

Anyone here good at this sort of thing?

She can do simple stuff but that's about it.  That's not her area of expertise so she doesn't keep up with it.

if you want real simple, use google sites

https://sites.google.com/

If you are computer literate enough to use word, you can build a site in a few minutes.  Under the site manage page, you can add http addresses so they point to your google site.

Many hosting companies offer free site building tools that even a painter can use.

Should be no issue at all for Mr. Awesome. ;D

Get set up with a wordpress install and a good theme - once that's done you pretty much need to know how to handle something like MS Word.
