My godmother recently called me and asked if I could help her make a website. She does consultant work and she wants to point her potential customers to her website. I'm only 15 so I don't have much experience making website (Except HTML and CSS), like you other webmasters So she wants a site that's easy to maintain because she doesn't have web experience. So what I'm asking in a nutshell is how could she make a well made professional site, without her having much programming experience? I know that she'll need a domain name and web hosting.
Hey, it's easy. Tell her to get a domain name and a hosting, install WordPress, choose an appropriate theme and she's good to go!
For ease of creation I would suggest the same as brightskymy and say buy a domain, get some hosting and install Wordpress. Then spend a bit of time choosing the correct theme. Build some pages and viola, you're good to go. If you don't want to do that then the other thing is to buy the domain, set up the hosting then have a look around for free website templates.
1. Hire someone. (Best option for her if she insisted "a well made professional site, without her having much programming experience") 2. Use wordpress as it is the easiest among all CMS. 3. Create a simple site yourself using only basic html and css. Just put the contact details on the page and let her handle her customers through phone or email.
