How to Pick Your Website Creation Software


When you're creating new websites, what should you use for the task?

Reader Question - When you're creating websites could you tell me what you use for the task. Do you hand code it, or use SEO Builder, or XSite? I'd be interested to know. I'm looking around and don't want to buy the wrong software to start out.

Michael Campbell Answers - Personally, I think you'd be very happy with Xsite. It has just about everything you could want to create and manage web sites, including SEO stuff, pop up generator, site maps, recip linking page, long page splitter, articles pages... not sure if you've seen the XSite video.

But I must warn you, if you watch the video, you'll be drooling over the ease of use and want to get it. Go ahead, try NOT to buy the software after watching the video. ;-)

Usually, if I have a page or two to do, I use the Mozilla HTML composer. It's a free download and very easy to use. Plus it has built-in ftp software so I don't need to use a separate application for that.

Up to now, if I needed a site from scratch, I'd been using Dr. Andy's SEO Website Builder and I've been very happy with it. But now that I have Xsite - after watching the video - I'm going to give it a shot for generating new sites.

The long page splitter allows me to take huge pubic domain papers and automatically dice them into search engine friendly 400 word pages. I've also been testing "hover pops" the ones that float into a web page. My early figures show almost triple the number of opt-ins.

Neither software would be a "wrong" choice. I'm sure Dr. Andy has this product on his radar and will undoubtedly incorporate some of Xsite's features into his product and vice versa. In the end, it really depends on you and which product you feel most comfortable with. SEO Website Builder or Xsite Pro... I got them both... but which one will you choose? SEO Website Builder or XSite Pro?
