    If you know basics of HTML & CSS then you can creating custom based webpages or download any premades to customize according to your needs! for a webmaster you need to justify with all requirements like; Quality of Content, Good Traffic and more important Eye Catchy Design!

    Start it anything you can do! use free hosting initially then advance yourself by making some free lancing jobs over Internet

    Webmasters also need to know about graphics, as in website layout/template designing. You'll also want to know about MySQL, PHP, JavaScript etc.

    I would slap together a junk server, install linux on it, and learn how to manage a server from the command line. You can also install something like Ubuntu that has a poofy GUI that will help you get started.

    Hope that helps,
    Nigel

    Work 14 hour days.. fight companies.. have people steal your content.. starting 10 years too late wont help..

    Do you have your own website yet.....?

    If you want to be a webmaster then the first step is to start your own website and get used to the basics of running a website.

    Good Luck!
