Website Building Software

I am in charge of building a new website for my club on campus, and well no one in the club has any website building experience so I felt I should give it a shot and see if I could make a better one then we currently have.

So I am basically looking for some easy to use website building software that is cheap or free and some good tutorials to get me started.

If anyone has any suggestions that would help someone with 0 experience in this area that would be a huge help

...like absolutely 0 experience
 
One of the best one is Dreamweaver. It's easy to use and lots of tutorial available on the internet. There are also books that you can buy. You can easily make a good quality website by following tutorials.

Another one is Frontpage. But I don't have any experience on it.
 
You really don't need software if you're building an amateur website. It's better to just go with a good content management system (CMS) like drupal, wordpress or joomla! in my opinion. You'll end up with better looking results in a shorter amount of time.

Where is this website going to be hosted at? Campus servers, private hosting, server in somebody's dorm room, etc?
 
use Seamonkey. it's got a wierd name but it's basically the Mozilla continuation of a respectable version of Netscape, 4.79.
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/

it has the browser, mail & news browser, & web editor.

it's very much WYSIWYG. it helps to know a little bit of HTML to start with it, e.g. to check syntax of links & images.
 
I went with dreamweaver as I found it on some computers at school and its turning out really well I think, maybe one more day and we'll have everything I need done
