What do you use to create a website?
I’m curious what you use to create a website.
I would really love to hear from people of ALL skill levels.
Do you use web design software, did you learn HTML, buy a “create a website” program, use the web page editor your host provides? Share specifics with us in the comment section below.
Thanks!



















Depends on what type of site, a blog is quick to setup. I hate using templates, but that works for some people. More of the brute force programmer, starting everything from scratch and build from there, hehe, that takes a long time though.
I use Photoshop to design the site, then I slice/code it it into parts that are all calibrated to work with all browsers, resolutions and relative operating systems (I use notepad++ as my html editor, I never do it visually).
I learned about half of the languages on w3schools.com (still learning
, W3C is a great place for people of any coding skill level to start learning/learn more coding languages.
I’m interested to hear about what other g33ks use…?
I first learnt the computer in ‘85 from my 13 year old son on a commodore 64 computer and became interested in the Infocom text adventure games. For the past then years I have self taught myself HTML using Notepad and even though I have looked at Dreamweaver etc. I still prefer to work on my website for greeting cards with what I feel works for me.
PS: I also use Paint Shop 5 and Easy Thumbnails for my various index pages. I recently was forced to switch to a paid host as I discovering Geocities was going to close down their free space services that I had been using for the past ten years. I also use my own templates for the top and bottom of all of my designs.
This is a suggestion for very new people to internet business who would like to start a small business from their home.
I learned HTML and PHP and use Komodo or Eclupse. However, I changed the approach while working on my last web site. I use a system called Site Sell. It not only gives you step by step guide on how to build an internet business – rather than just a web site – it gives you all the tools to do it. It might look like a step backward for those who know HTML, CSS, PHP, SQL… I don’t know how about you, but I want to build an online business, not just a web site.
