Ahhh, ye good ol' website creating. Before you start you got to make sure that your website has a "catch" or something that keeps visitors returning. Having your site specialize in a specific part of the game or Bungie universe is a good way to do this.
The golden rule is:
Make it unique or make it better.
If you just make a plain community based Halo site I can tell you now failure will be the end result. If you decided to go with that anyway you would be competing with HBO and other places that have been established since Halo was born.
Traffic sources are also a massive part of making a successful community. Don't think that when you create it people will know about it and naturally flock. Google is your biggest friend when it comes to this. If your building this site from scratch make sure you look up "Search Engine Optimization Techniques".
If you have little experience in programming I would suggest downloading and installing a content management system like php-fusion or Joomla. An attractive site is a good site. As for a name, make sure you get something catchy yet related to the overall goal or purpose of your site.
Let me know if you need any assistance with anything.
