My dad wants me to make a website for him because I'm more computer literate than him. He has this thing that he wants to start to see if he can get some side income (it's not a blog he wants a website)...how would I go about making this website, it's going to be a simple one. Please help me! Thanks!

I think if this is for first time website, you'd bette try to using free blogging services until you know about how does a website works. Actually it's not a simple thing. You need to understanding about html, ftp, website programming such as php or asp, and many more. More over you want to make a website for business. A making money website is not as simple as personal website. You must using some encryption technology to protect your customer's payment information. For this purpose, you can use paypal as your payment processor. Good luck for you and have a nice day. Happy mylotting.

If you are going to buy hosting for the site (not a free site), then you should have access to a control panel where you can use a wysiwyg (what you see is what you get) editor. You won't have to know html to make a simple site. I think there are free sites you can get under a sub-domain that also have site design functions.
