Web design is an ongoing process. For some it comes easier than to others. I have been working in web design for over 12 years and am still learning new things. I have mainly used Dreamweaver and Go Live for web design. But I am always looking for an easier and faster way to do it.

There are many options available. Some web hosts offer an online webpage creator. On the pc there are programs such as Frontpage. Xsite Pro is becoming a favorite of many for creating sites quickly and easily. From what I have seen, while it seems to work it creates some pretty ugly html code. I don’t know if that is causing any problems or not. Also check out a free program offered by nvu.com. Link on the resource page.

For those not well versed in web design you may be tempted to buy pre-made templates. They can work but you still need to know enough to be able to go in and make changes to customize it to your site. Don’t be fooled into “push button web design” Once you are locked into someone else’s design it makes it harder to customize it to your liking and all of a sudden your sites look like a hundred of others. Spend some time getting to know at least the basics, take apart other web pages to see how they are built. Every web designer has done this at one time or another to learn new tricks and techniques.

There are a number of software programs that will automatically create pages and pages of content for you. The problem with these programs is they create hundreds if not thousands of pages of duplicate content. They leave fingerprints that tell the search engines this page was machine generated which make it easy for the search engine to locate these pages and ban them.

Most of my websites tend to be pretty basic so they don’t take hundreds of hours to create. I almost always start with creating graphics for my site. I highly recommend Photoshop Elements for creating your graphics. The higher priced version of Photoshop is an graphic industry standard. Photoshop Elements gives you many of the same features for a much lower cost.

Once you have your website created, you need to test the hell out of it. Make sure all your links are working. Make sure your forms and email work the way you want them to. Check it out in a couple different browsers to make sure it is as cross platform compatible as possible.
