Hi Ray i was looking at Photobiz as i thought they looked quite classy.
You have a number of options with websites, have someone build you something from scratch, use a template system such as wordpress or go with a system such as photobiz. They all have there benefits and your £2k is way over the top for a good website. The most expensive will be a build from scratch with the cheapest being a system such as photobiz. You then need to consider site maintenance and whether you want someone to do your uploads etc if you are thinking a photo site. A system will be the easiest with a web designer being the most expensive. A shop will cost you more. My money would go to a template/wordpress site as there are 1000,s of great templates and you have more control over things. Having a site on your own hosting is better in my mind as well. The hardest things about a great site is its content. Lots of people will say I want a site but have not considered what they really want so that is always a good start point.
Thank you ray all the quotes i have had coming in for a basic website to be built like the photobiz ones have been around £3000 plus then they want me to pay over £100 per month?????????? now that is not going to happen lol but i have looked at clik pic and know its great value for money but looks really cheap and gives off the wrong impression and i know that some sites look really good but are really bad for seo? sorry to be a pain but feel like there are a lot of dodgy sites & company's out there 
and i am thinking about going to photobiz but cant find enough valid reviews on them and when i have tried to phone them they have never answered so that has put me off a bit.
Thanks Miles have had a quick look at them and they both look like they need to be explored

Going by your first image , maybe spend a bit of time learning photography so you can upload quality shots to your your 3k website.
And dont forget the basics.
?????????????? I'm confused who the bloody hell is Lucian lol ?????????????

Don't worry Jodie. I think some people have Lucian on the brain............ you'll soon come across him on here - he's a slightly, er, controversial character!
lol tell him to stay away from me then lol But is his work good or is Eviscera trying to say my work was bad????
