Default Setting up a website

Hi

I need to set up a very simple website. It will be for promotional reasons only ie to give a 'corporate/business' image for a new business venture. It will not need to handle transactions or be updated regularly. I would like an email address that has the website/business name in it ie dingdongler@websiteaddress.com

What's the most cost effective and least time confusing way of going about this?

Thanks

As above. Wordpress is easy to use and has 1000's of templates you can edit.

Wordpress or Joomla are your to main Content Management Systems and both user friendly if you have a bit of spare time.

I really don't have time to do it myself no matter how simple it is. Either I pay somebody to do it or I see if I can get a youngster in the family to do it for me using wordpress.

Thanks

Thanks.

One of my 'juniors' at work is a bit of a whizz with computers and has agreed to sort it all out for me!
