    Hi, I hope someone can help me. I need to set up a very simple website for my husband's business offering a service. Are there any quick and easy options out there for me? I have very little experience of web design so a template would be great. I did something similar for a photography website where I used Clikpic.com. Something like that would be great if anyone could point me in the right direction. Thanks!

    I'd try Joomla (or another CMS package) and a free template (http://www.joomla24.com/)

    Plenty of templates here, you can search by the nature of your husbands business and see what you think...

    Thanks so much for your replies! To be honest, I'm looking for something even simpler than that... I am looking at website builders who will host the site aswell. Has anyone used Homestead.com? Appreciate your comments.

    Ah right, a site builder type thing. That site looks fine for what it does.

    Hi,

    I have used Moonfruit.com quite a bit and find them really easy. They are perfect for a business card type website.

    In my sig you'll see a site I threw together in a few hours. I'd say if you spent a week or two on a site there you could make a lovely little professional site.

    You can use any domain name also if you wish - even .ie domains.

    Nic
