    Alrighty forum, a newbie here needing ANY kind of help with starting a website. I'm creating a t-shirt brand and need a professional website to go along with it.

    What would be the best site to acquire a domain name?

    Who would be a solid website designer I could goto?

    Who is the best e-commerce provider?

    What is this whole deal going to cost? lol

    Any other things I'm forgetting or tips would be highly appreciated as this is the first website I'm making.

    :)

    ok you have quite a few options when it comes to a designer, WebBotany.com is pretty good. Tell them Sean sent you and you will actually get a discount.

    Domain: Look for keyword rich domains
    E-Commerce solution depends on a couple things...
    If you are serious about your site it will probably cost anywhere from 3- 5K for the whole thing and some basic startup SEO.

    If you want to do the SEO yourself, check out my site www.highrankingseo.net for some free tools and advice. We also provide consulting, SEM, PPC Management and link building services as well.

    You can acquire the domain at sedo.
    For designer you need to post your requirement at freelance site.
    I use zen cart coz it easy to use.
    The min cost is $500.

    What would be the best site to acquire a domain name? : buy a brandable domaion if you have money, or just find a good one with creativity

    Who would be a solid website designer I could goto?: Lots of them available at dp, or buy a hosting account with site builder and create your own site. Example of hosting provider with sitebuilder, HostLuck.com :D

    Who is the best e-commerce provider? : A good script for this is oscommerce, can be auto installed with a click in hosting providers with fantastico or a designer can do it.

    What is this whole deal going to cost? Frankly from $10000 to $20 [$10 hosting + $10 Domain], it depends on what you do.

    Hope it helps
