A little help building my website

    I currently have a couple different websites that I sell various products on. They are pretty basic. I don't have much programming experience, but I am pretty good at using programming software such as Microsoft Expression Web.

    I am starting a new site that needs to be a little more advanced. I will be selling one product each day, and I am needing someone to build a shell for me, and include the programming (probably cron job?) needed to rotate the main page daily. If I could get a basic template and the functionality, I could create pages for each product, and I can build the rest of the site.

    I don't have a very big budget, so I am willing to do everything that I can myself.

    Can anyone help me? Or steer me in the right direction? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    I don't know Expression Web. Try thinking using PHP which is commonly used and will get you a lot more help

    I figured some PHP would be involved, but I just wasn't sure what else was needed. :)

    You should use PHP if you want to rotate pages according to date, make different pages and in index.php check for day using if statement and show page you want to show using include("page.php");

    Hope this helps

    Yes, you can build a website using PHP with m$'s Expression Web pack,
    which is very similar to adobe's dreamweaver.
