Hosting WEB Pages
How many different platforms exist for hosting WEB Pages?
Does IIS only host Microsoft ASP pages?
If I wanted to have a WEB site for my business, can I use something like GoDaddy?
Does GoDaddy host page types other than ASP?
What other companies like GoDaddy could I look at for hosting pages for a small business?
Since I am familiar with Visual Studio and .NET, what add-ons are there for creating WEB pages that do the upfront work of building templates using CSS?
Bottom line - I want to create a set of pages for my small business and I'm looking for options on how to do this.
Thanks.

depending upon the hosting package, they sell windows and linux packages.
What other companies like GoDaddy could I look at for hosting pages for a small business?
too many to mention.. I do recommend squarespace.com for their ease of use and their ability to scale depending upon demand.

There are many JS packages i.e. bootstrap. Web design is more of an art than a science. What you may be used to is windows forms coding, web coding is entirely different.
