How to start advocacy website

8,435 Expert 8TB
Hi all.

Just wondering, can anyone give me some idea of where to start? I have one or two ideas I'd like to start "pushing". That is, I want to bring them to the attention of the world, and try to encourage people in general to think about them. I figured a website would be the way to go, but have no idea how to go about it. I've been working with VB for ages, but have no experience with websites other than clicking on them.

All (helpful) suggestions welcome. :)

Why don't you try asp.net with a vb back end? It should be fairly simple to create a website with visual studio 2005 using an asp.net project template. Once you get a beta server up and running on your local network, you can then purchase some hosting where you upload your pages to it.
