Looking for input on website design.

[SkinEmAll]

hey guys and gals, I know theres alot of computer knowledge here and would greatly appreciate some help and guidence. I own a small bizness and need to start a website. First question is money. As in build myself vs. Verizon. As Im renewing my yellow pg. ad w/ verizon they ofcoarse offer their package, 5 pgs, unlimited changes and support, placed in mega search engines and so on. approx. $116 a month. As I was searching for a domain name on register.com I looked at their options. Seems to be somewhat similar, but somewhere around $10-40 per month depending on what you want. So I guess Im looking for whatever insight you guys might have for me. Thanks alot.
