I am a full time student and working too so my free time is limited. I've been exposed to alot of coding for some time now so technically I'm pretty sure I can manage. I have a question about launching a site though. I've read how content is one of the most important things for a website, and my question is basically should I just get it out there and update it while I go (because of limited free time), or build some good content first then "launch" it. Once again i'm pretty much a newb at maintaining a long term site so I hope my question kinda makes sense.. Thanks!

Stay clear of that, create your content and upload. Focus on the core basics: good htaccess, obfuscate your email code early on, these are the beginnings, then add content freely. Stay with clean code and a file structure ready to grow for five or ten years. How exciting for you. Go dude81.
