there's a program called "miva" that does everything for you. its not free, but its not expensive.
the pros: it, literally, takes care of just about everything. you can update your site with ease, add new products / categories, etc, without any or much html experience.
the cons: because of the above, its extraordinarily template based -- meaning you're somewhat limited design-wise.
