First you need someone, or do it yourself. Who makes the DESIGN of your site on Photoshop.
Basically you will have 1 big image, that will be the design of your site.
With Photoshop you can then 'SLICE' every section of that image and save it as HTML code.
For example in your design you slice the menu bar, and all other functions.
After you have sliced EVERYTHING, you can save it as html (and images (or just html)).
=> Photoshop generated your HTML code, blank spots will get an IMAGE (blank image of course) in the html code. Also the generated html code, will be generated in one big table.
Now you have to put things right with CSS, which is pretty easily and fast done if you know how to work with CSS
+ add some html coding yourself. Like links, images,... (you still have to make the MENU work, for example...)
Add the end, when that's done. You can add special features to it.
With javascript and/or PHP(and MySQL).
If you want a decent site, with shoping features, newsletter, news-section, product-list, you'll be working on this a whole week.
Basically this was a very very very simple summarize in how to make a site.
Good luck.
