You can get Microsoft Visual Web Designer Express. It’s totally free and pretty good.

I prefer Aptana Studio for heavy lifting and Notepad Plus for every day work. (Both free. Aptana makes Microsoft Office look like a trivial little bit of code – it has more add-ons than Microsoft has bugs.)
Aptana Studio is a great starting point. It is an IDE based upon Eclipse which is a very common platform.
With Aptana you can write Ruby, PHP, Javascript, HTML, XML and CSS. The environment helps you manage your project and files. It also maintains a local history of changes to your files in case you need to start over.
Because it is Eclipse based you can add most Eclipse plugins to add stuff like Perl editing, Subversion support, and more.
Aptana has a lot more features than I could list here that make it a great professional IDE.
You are going to need an image manipulation program to design. A free tool for this is http://www.gimp.org/ Your also going to need a way to type the markup code. You can use Microsoft visual studio express, get your free copy here http://www.microsoft.com/Express/ Then I recommend writing your style sheets with this free firefox plugin called firebug. Get your free copy here, http://getfirebug.com/ Good luck! Dont know what style sheets are or need help learning how to use them properly? http://css-tricks.com/video-screencasts/ Enjoy!
depends what you want to do. dreameaver is pretty good but I prefer to use CMS packages. That way I stay dynamic with links and all updates go online straight away and i can do that anywhere in the world. I usually use Exponent cms. Below are the links to exponent and 2 websites I made with it.
hmmm… if you are really looking for the best it’s not really for free. Adobe Photoshop and Dreamweaver is a good duo for web designing.
