I have discovered WebDesign quite recently when I was searching on the Internet for some tool that could help me with a project. I had to create a website and I didn’t know much about this sort of things. I chose to try and see what WebDesign could do for an inexperienced “web designer” like me, and I was surprised to realize it was, indeed, very helpful.
It has all the features I needed, nothing more, nothing less. It gave me the possibility to create a website combining the included HTML templates with unique, personal content (images, media, styles and add-ons), thanks to WebDesign's easy-to-use Site Manager. I could see exactly what the site would look like instantly due to its automatic update feature. I particularly liked the flexibility, with which I could manage my site, as well as the fact that the program has so many wizards that help do some hard things for me. The matter is that he wizards develop websites by generating the correct HTML syntax for the user. Another characteristic I found important was the fact that WebDesign could scan the website for coding errors in just a few seconds, and once the errors were detected, they were listed and grouped by web page. Thus, the errors could be dealt with very easily. Last but not least, I could optimize and convert the website to XHTML before uploading.
In a few words, I can say that this app met my expectations and helped me a lot, so I will definitely recommend it to everybody who needs a reliable utility for creating websites.
