Can I create a good web site using my own program built for making web sites?
Unfortunately creating a web site is not as easy as typing a word-processor document. Countless hours will be spent trying to do seemingly simple tasks, only to learn that the desired look is not possible with that web site builder. Often the final web site will not work in one of the major browsers. Even to build a basic web site the creator needs a general knowledge in HTML and CSS. To add something as simple as a contact form requires a basic knowledge in a server-side language like PHP or Pearl. A business web site needs to look professional, be search engine optimized, have optimized photo files, be cross-browser compatible, and meet accessibility standards. The time spent building a web site with a program can easily exceed 40 hours for the first time user and many standards will not be met.
