From the article: Getting Started With Making Your Own Website
What's the hardest thing about how to build a website, especially getting started? This if for those who want to know how to build a website for your own personal needs not those of you who are experts on how to build a website. What do you feel is the hardest part about how to build a website.
Everything!
- Everything! I used to know how to use FrontPage but now everything is so different and I haven't kept up. FP is old stuff now. So, I am trying to learn all the new stuff, the new language as I call it.

Building a Website
- In the beginning, for me, placement of copy content / pic's...what size of your display (graphics)...use of tables (tough)...use and placement of partners.

Maintaing Website
- I agree it is very hard to get your site off the ground to begin with, but for me the hardest part is maintaining it. It's a little bit of a hassle to me to find stuff to keep updating it with when I have paid projects to work on, and deadlines to meet. Sigh. It is all part of it though, when you run the store yourself.

Getting Started
- Getting the initial ideas, formats, and content (images, audio files, etc) together and actually starting the writing. Once the writing is started, it seems to get easier as you have a starting point and you can measure progress and refine from a known starting point.
