For once, a tip instead of a question.

For users with japanese enabled computers. Aside from that and a link, nothing really needs to be said about this.

すげ~!このウエブサイト!だれがこのウエブサイトを 作ったのか。
I have a question. Is the "Ka" at the end of your sentence the question particle? Would the sentence still be fine without it?

(I'm trying to learn Japanese via reading :)
 
Yes, it is acting as the question indicator particle. I could omit it but if I were to omit in speech then I have to make sure to keep the rising intonation to indicate that I'm asking a question. Otherwise it would be construed as a statement. Of course in writing you have to have something to indicate a question though.
 
だれがこのウエブサイトを作ったの sounds more natural. だれがこのウエブサイトを作ったのですか as well. The sentence is read as an interrogative one, since the interrogative だれが is at the front.
more simply, just add "?" ;-)
