Creating a Web Site: The Missing Manual
$29.99
What's GOOD: A must have for any beginning web site developer. I continue to find this book an excellent resource as I develop my website.

What's BAD: Beware of sources/websites within the book. I did a lot of additional research on hosting solutions as recommended in the book and initially went with aplus.net (who is featured in the book also). After working on my site and looking at some other features I wanted to take advantage of, I canceled the aplus.net hosting solution and went with another provider. Needless to say, it has been 25+ days since the cancellation and aplus.net has not processed the refund (it's still "pending"). Shame on the author and publisher for including references to a company with such POOR business practices.
