Help needed with Personal Website and Blog Designing

Status
Not open for further replies.
I have decided to build my website in the following 10 days in which I am free, as I have nothing else to do. The problem is that I am a HTML and CSS n00b and I still haven't learnt Python. Please solve the following problems of mine :

Website Building Software

1. I need a software to build it via WYSWIG and it must be really easy to use
2. I must be able to use that software in Ubuntu.
3. The software should be preferably made from QT, Python, Java, GTK2+, Perl or Ruby(in that order).
4. The software should have available tutorials for easy use

Webhosting

1. I already have a google pages account
2. I am thinking of going for paid hosting
3. I can Spare Rs. 350/- max for one year


Blog

1. The blog must be easy to edit/use
2. I like blogger and have an account
3. But I want to be able to catogarise posts, which I am unable to do in Blogger
4. Willing to try out wordpress

Will I be able to make both the blog and webiste within the same domain and intergrated into each other ?

I also need some advice on where to start and how to proceed.

Think Zen.
Kompozer : *www.kompozer.net/

That should work for designing web sites.
But still , if you want the best, go for Dreamweaver on wine.
It runs pretty well.

how do I install it ?
my compiler is screwed, so no point trying to compile it.
I did not find it by doing sudo apt-get install kompozer.

^Should be on the repos ,
Anyways here's a link : *kent.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/kompozer/kompozer-0.7.10-i386.deb

Btw, what do you mean by a "screwed" compiler?

@metalhead, like always, you can get the lowest priced hosting from me. Only 149! If you really want it, then please do purchase before 31st as prices might not be the same afterwards. :D

Eh? Whats Hardy got to do with compiling?
Just make sure you got build essential and stuff.
And compiling errors dont mean compiler problem , they could also mean , dependencies are missing.
Ubuntu seperates dev files , so if you have say pidgin installed , doesnt mean you have pidgin development files installed too.
So, trying to compile a pidgin plugin , say guifications, would result in a compile error saying : pidgin not found.

I will buy only AFTER atleast the blog part is finalised.
and there is 90% chance that I will meet the 31st deadline.
can I configure kompozer's publish button to publish directly to your server ?

All that learning I will do afterwards.

@gautham: Blogger has labels right? They aren't too bad. Almost like categories...

Also try not to start of with a wizzywig editor. Cause you will most definitely come across problems later on that will take much more trouble fixing than if you know your HTML and CSS throughly. Use wizzywig only as a convenience and not an absolute tool.

And Dreamweaver...haven't used it in years...

WP will be best option for you.
You dont need to know any language for this.


Yes you can have a static website+ blog on same account like:
yoursite.com -> static site
blog.yoursite.com OR yoursite.com/blog -> your personal blog.

Sub-domain option will work only if your host provide this features.
