hi everyone
I'll try and keep this fairly short although I do have some questions I'd really like some help with.
I finished a postgrad in web design in multimedia last year. Since then I've not been able to find work in this area however I've created a small demo site using html/css and a little flash (in the banner only) to show a bit of what I can do. its uploaded onto some free space on someone elses site.
I'd like to start creating a far bigger site for myself however I need some help even before I start.
domain names & hosting - can anyone recommend some places to look for a domain name, do I really need one at the moment and would I also need to pay for hosting?
I'd be planning to include
- javascript
-a little flash
-a little silverlight
in my site.
We also created a small site for uni that used VB.Net to have a back-end database. We used visual studio for this.
If i wanted to have a back-end database in the site I am planning to create, how would I include it in the site? does visual studio still need to be used?
Sorry about all the questions, I'm still fairly new to web design, I know little bits of different things, not a lot about one thing in particular so not sure how to start getting my thoughts and facts together for a bigger and more complicated site.
any help anyone can give me would be appreciated
thanks for reading
