Develop a site plan. Include your main information pages or categories and show the relationships between these pages. You can draw a site plan using pencil and paper or using a software drawing package. Plan how users will navigate between the different pages on your site and what content or features are contained on the pages.
Create a graphical design for your car website. Make your design one that will appeal to your intended audience. If your site is devoted to one particular type of car, you may be able to work in colors or graphical design elements associated with that type of car. Keep the graphic design clean and attractive and don't go overboard with heavy graphics or animated images as these tend to slow down the website and may frustrate your visitors. You can use a blog-style design like that on Jay Leno's Garage or a traditional portal design such as that on Automobile magazine's site.
Produce car-related content. Keep your content focused on the pages and categories you came up with in your site plan. Use your site plan as a guide in producing your content. You can produce content pages by hand-coding them in HTML using a text editor such as Notepad. Content management systems like WordPress are also popular options for producing content, especially for novice website developers.
Transfer your content to your website hosting service. For hand-built site pages, you'll need to transfer your files to your website hosting service using FTP. If you are using WordPress or another content management system, your files are likely already on the server as these types of systems tend to keep the content in a database on the server.
Test your car website. Access your site through an Internet browser as you expect your visitors to do. Make sure the site appearance is correct and that it functions as you intended. Check your hyperlinks and any video or audio content to make sure you can access everything.
Attract new visitors to your website. Promote your car website using traditional search engine optimization techniques, pay-per-click marketing (such as Google AdWords). You may also be able to promote your car website on other car-enthusiast websites.

The Best Free Web Development ToolsIn Feburary 2016 04,
In Feburary 2016 04,
While you can use Notepad as an HTML editor, you'll work more efficiently and create better sites using a full-featured HTML editing program such as Kompozer. With separate code and design views, this program helps you work with CSS and JavaScript as well as HTML. Kompozer is also a WYSIWYG editor that builds HTML code for you when you drag controls onto a document. Its file manager helps you manage your site's files and the built-in FTP tool uploads them to your Web server. BlueGriffon, a similar WYSIWYG program, also helps you create professional looking websites quickly.
Create Your Own Graphics
You don't have to spend money on commercial image editing programs to create rich, compelling graphics for your website. Install a program such as Paint.Net or GIMP, and you can begin creating buttons, menu items, banners, logos and other graphics that enhance your Web pages. Paint.Net and GIMP have customizable brushes and other tools that help you draw new images and enhance existing ones. Filters also enable you to add special effects to all types of graphics. Both programs support layers and add-ons that give you access to additional useful editing features.
Spice Up Your Pages with Animation
Newer Web technologies can write code that adds interactive animations to Web pages. You don't have to be an expert HTML5 or CSS3 developer because the Google's Web Designer program writes animation code for you. After you learn how to use Web Designer, it can create 2-D and 3-D motion graphics using HTML5 and CSS3. You can work in Advanced mode to create complex animations or in Quick mode, in which the program does most of the work for you. Web Designer is an excellent tool for creating animated Web ads and banners.
Debugging, Testing and Optimization Tools
It's important to optimize your Web pages so that they load rapidly and provide the best user experience for site visitors. Tools such as the Firebug add-on can help you identify issues on your website that slow it down. For example, it has tools that analyze network activity and benchmark your JavaScript's performance. Firebug also comes with a powerful step-by-step debugger that helps you test and debug code as it runs. The main Firebug add-on only works with Firefox. However, you can also install Firebug Lite on Chrome, Safari, Opera and Internet Explorer.

The Average Cost of Website Design for a Small BusinessIn Feburary 2016 02,
In Feburary 2016 02,
You must acquire a domain name and server space on which to store your website, which is known as hosting. As of 2014, the registration of a domain name averages approximately $10 per year, when factoring in promotions and discounts associated with bundled purchases. Web hosting provided by a third-party service provider averages around $10 a month for a month-to-month plan. However, Web hosting can cost less if purchasing six months' or a year’s worth of time at once. If you use an internal server to store your website, the average cost of maintaining the website will depend on your personnel, equipment and utility expenses.
Design and Graphics
You'll likely include logos, images and backgrounds on your website. Graphic designers can charge an average of $100 an hour for logo design, along with the creation of any other custom images that you want on your site. While you can use free templates available through WordPress, which is an open-source blogging tool and content management system, having custom Web pages helps to set your business apart from competitors.
Content Creation and Management
You can provide the copy writing for your website internally or outsource the task to a third-party service provider. The average cost for working with a third-party service provider specializing in content creation is $50 an hour, although it can be more if working with a high-end firm. Similarly, there are a number of freelance services that charge $25 per hour or less, which may be a better option for small businesses that don’t have the resources to hire high-end service providers.
Programming and Functionality
Customized Web pages, plugins and add-ons require programming, usability tests and detailed planning to provide a smooth user experience. That is why small businesses often turn to IT professionals who understand Web programming and design. Working with third-party IT professionals can cost an average of $100 an hour, depending on the scope and nature of the project. Because of the time involved, this can be one of the most expensive parts of Web design.
