I would say that how you deal with the HTML files depends on the client. Some can upload the files themselves, but others may expect you to deal with the uploading and setting up the domain yourself. If you want to minimize clutter after a job, put your old work in an archive file (ex. .zip) and store it online or on an external drive.
I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but you could try a place like vWorker. They have many people on there who would be glad to do such work.
If you want the absolute basics, you could try one of those x for Dummies books but if you're more serious then try and look for a book about Dreamweaver by Addison-Wesley. They have published some of the better books about web design and other aspects of computer technology in the past few years.

Don't sell your services compared with everyone else. Sell quality, sell you as a total package. I sell SEO services to local businesses. I'm able to get hundreds of dollars more per job than my competitors (literally!) because I don't just sell SEO. I sell marketing, my ability to make the cash register ka-ching!
That's a good strategy. I can understand not wanting to charge too much if you're just starting out but if you have experience then there's no reason not to try and get as much as you can for your work. For now, I think a 3 pound raise is alright, but I'm sure you could easily boost it in the future.
When you are design a page for your own personal use, do you prefer to code the site from scratch or use an existing template and modify it for your own needs?
I would assume that if you sold them the copyright to your work that they would not have to pay you for it since they now owned it. I'm not quite sure though.
I would look into hiring a lawyer specializing in cases like these in case if the agency you worked for tries to take you to court. If you weren't under contract I can't see how they would legally be able to tell you what you can do with your portfolio.
paying yourself from your earnings is important as it keeps your drive for work up and it is also good for your company finances. most financiers advice that you pay yourself atlleast 60% of your net income
