You can install either:
- Visual Studio 2012 Express for Web
- Visual Studio 2013 Express for Web
Or, and this depends on your situation
- Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition
Which is actually a free version of Visual Studio Professional which can be used based on your financial or organisational situation. It's free for open source, academic and "small businesses":
Q: Who can use Visual Studio Community?
A: Here’s how individual developers can use Visual Studio Community: Any individual developer can use Visual Studio Community to create their own free or paid apps.
Here’s how Visual Studio Community can be used in organizations:
An unlimited number of users within an organization can use Visual Studio Community for the following scenarios: in a classroom learning environment, for academic research, or for contributing to open source projects.
For all other usage scenarios: In non-enterprise organizations, up to 5 users can use Visual Studio Community. In enterprise organizations (meaning those with >250 PCs or > $1 Million US Dollars in annual revenue), no use is permitted beyond the open source, academic research, and classroom learning environment scenarios described above.
For more information, please refer to the Visual Studio Community 2013 License Terms and the Visual Studio Licensing Whitepaper.

All of these versions can be installed side-by-side. Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition will actually provide one integrated environment where you can build both web and desktop applications in the same solution.
