My favorite website design tools are Photoshop or equivalent, and notepad. I stopped using WYSIWYG website design software some time ago, as many acted buggy at times and I had to end up tweaking them manually anyway to format correctly.
Take some time to learn HTML and CSS. There are many references on the web, and you can layout any type of custom website you want. In my case, I basically display a webpage I'm working on in notepad++ in a browser side by side, adding a meta tag to auto refresh the webpage continuously. This way when any changes are made in notepad++ and saved, the browser will display the changes almost instantly.
But you may not have to do any design work at all, as there are a huge number of free website templates available. These just require you to add or replace custom graphics or text for your purposes.
Though a little more complicated, there are also open source JavaScript libraries such as JQuery that can be used to add functionality or effects to your webpage. I've actually relied on these libraries quite often.
