Do you know a good web site provider who also offers a free web site builder? My best experience has been with Homestead.com, which has several different packages to choose from and also supplies a simple, easy to use website builder. Homestead is so easy to use even a young child could master it and the pages look great. My second best experience has been with Microsoft Office Live. They have all the tools you need to build a very professional looking web site for free or you can choose paid packages that offer more for your business. How about the rest of you? Are their anyone who recommends someone different?

Your best bet is to either get someone to build it for you, or learn how to build websites your self. Alot of these so called website builders are a joke and anything you need to do can never be done the way you exactly want it. I like using Dreamweaver sometimes, but even that program gives me restrictions to what I want to do forcing me to code it all myself. Which leads to me just coding everything myself all the time lol. You think mylot built mylot with a nifty little website editor? Of course it all depends on what you want to do. If you just want to display a few things on a website for fun, then rip at it with some website builder. But if you want to build an online business and actually have sales and reports and alot of other things that businesses have, then you will need something called a database that you will have to make. Builder programs often come up short, and most have to many restrictions. Dreamweaver is probably the best one I've seen out their. Look for it at www.Adobe.com

From my personal experience i would liek to tell you that it is not good to use the online web site builder. rather go for a paid web siter building. And web site hosting i gues www.myhostsite.com is the good one. here I am also hosting my site.

If you want a host that not only host your site, but that has a system in place to assist you in building your site so that it is successful, ranks high in the search engines, and creates it's own traffic, then you should look at site build it. They have a web building software that is easy enough for anyone even if you have no experience creating websites, plus at no extra charge provide you with an advisor,training , submission to the search engines when you launch and when ever your content changes as well. Plus they monitor your site for problems and notify you if a problem is found so that you can correct it (ie)broken or non functional links. They provide too many services to mention here but I have not seen another hosting service that does all that they do without charging you for all the extra services that they provide. The only drawback for some people may be that they do not have a monthly payment option, so you will have to pay the $299/year when you sign up. This is not a bad deal for what you get and I really prefer to eliminate as many monthly payments as I can. To really get a feel for what site build it provides and what they can do for you, watch this video and you. http://buildit.sitesell.com/profit7520.html Not to mention the guarantee they have which is: Money-Back Satisfaction and Success Guarantee Your domain name is included with your purchase. If at anytime SBI does not exceed your expectations, they will immediatly refund your money and let you keep your domain name. I don't know of another hosting service with a guarantee like that.
