 Web design software Hi folks, I have a good idea for a website, have gotten some quotes but I cannot go with a designer until after the summer and I wont have the cash until then, however I want to get a few pages of it up and running. Can anyone reccommend any software I could use to build a few pages of information, just to get the domain out there. Have used yahoo site builder, and some other programs. I am not an IT head but I could grasp a program on a level of Adobe CS2. any good recommendations? someone said Dreamweaver but how easy is it to use?         |

| Dreamweaver is the industry standard design program and is great software. To learn and get your head around, you're looking at a steep learning curve. Maybe to start with, you could look at setting up a blog and picking a nice template for it. You could build it up from there. You get a nice looking site with a content management system and little tech knowledge needed to get up and running. I like WordPress › Blog Tool and Weblog Platform but there are others. Or you could try WordPress.com Get a Free Blog Here for a ready to go solution. Rgds, Dave

| To be honest ... wordpress as David said is probably one of your best bets ... you'll be up and running in an hour with the quick installs from any of the major hosting companies ... Templating it at a later date will take a bit of time but there are LOTS of themes out there that are relatively simple to install ... best of luck

| Try WordPress.com Get a Free Blog Here if installing it yourself is too technical. |

step 1 ... create a database through your hosting panel (take note of passwords and what not) step 2 ... install via a one click system with your hosting panel. Total cost ... if its a .com . probably about 10 quid for the .com .. and about 40 quid for your hosting for the year ... Anything simpler ... is well ... thats pretty simple I believe. Or again as david said ... go play with wordpress from their site and set up a blog ... |

| I am using Dream weaver. It is very easy to use and it has many advanced features. It has a split screen and it usually doesn't change code around and add useless stuff. It has a nice Find/Replace features which will take care of everything in that page, or in a group of files or a whole directory even. I also like the DreamWeaver/FireWorks integration, and the use of templates. They are a bit tough to learn, but once you do learn them, you can create some nice-looking sites in no time. |

| Nvu 1.0 is a free, complete and very basic web design software for Windows, Mac and Linux . We have to create websites quickly by using this software based on Mozilla Composer without the knowledge of HTML. The software includes more advanced bells and whistles like JavaScript coding and CSS support. |

| It's been a very long while sinde I used Dreamweaver, but I do remember getting annoyed because the coding was very messy. Has that changed? I'm assuming the coding "standards" are constantly updated as well to be SEO friendly....or does that only come with SEO research? Hmm.
