Background:
Both of my in-laws each own a small business. One of them barely knows how to use a computer (copy/paste, drag/drop is lost to them), the other has never touched a computer. Would like to create a website for each of their businesses.

Details:
- Have a domain name in mind for each of them. Both names are available.
- Must have templates and be simple/easy to update/maintain. (I REALLY don't want to be called every time they want to upload a picture).
- Traffic to each site will be low. Less than 100 hits per month on average. Potential for 500-1000 hits during heavy seasonal activity.
- No online purchasing. No need to purchase an SSL cert or setup any credit card processing.
- Relatively low in cost. No more than $500/year for both domains.

I personally have little to no experience in web hosting; not my forte. Will research this, but, wanted to get a started in the right direction. Asking fellow TWWers if they can give any recommendations offhand. Thanks.

What are the domain names? I would love to register them and then extort you.

Anyone used Fat Cow as a host and CM4all as a site builder?

CM4all has much better templates than GD and Network Solutions, but I'd like to see if anyone's used them...
