I am making a website for my families business. I am currently using a little bit of HTML, and a little bit of adobe go live to put this together. We are a manufacturing company and the site is to sell to our wholesale customers, as well as to solicit retail customers. I have no experience in creating a website, but I have taken some free online courses on HTML and adobe go live. I currently have a couple questions, but I am sure I will have more as the site progresses.
First off, what should the width of the site be. The rule of thumb that I heard in the free class was 800 pixels. Granted I am using a 21" wide mac monitor, but to me that looks really small. Taking the code from cheapass and putting it into go live, it looks like the dimensions on cag were about 1000 pixels wide. Does anyone have any recommendations on the size it should be?
