I think you need to learn HTML and PHP.
If you're going to do professional websites, HTML is a must. And PHP or
some other server-side language is pretty much required, also. You'll
probably need javascript, also.
Don't count on generators or free script to do the work for you.
They're OK for the casual website, but not a company one.
