as a beginner i was not aware how important mockup was until the day i begin design websites, the first few pages i designed for my client is entirely based on my "imagination", i was doing fine at first, after 3rd page or so i begin to struggle. All sudden my mind is blank, and slow me down awfully.
There are tons of mockup software and few are directly on website, some paid while others are free. At the moment, upon discovering im using moqups.com for today. i felt the site features are limited.
How do you mockup your site? and what software or Sites do u use? and do list down the best recommendation, if possible free or under budget.

HotGloo & UXPin both have some nice features.
On the Lo-fi side I'd suggest:

There's also a great course on site planning and wireframing over at Lynda.com

In doing so I've been able to come up with ideas from a mix of these templates and make things spectacular.
HotGloo works pretty good too ;-)
