What is the Right Web Design Software For Me
What is the Right Web Design Software For Me
Most of us who professionally design use software such as Dreamweaver, Fireworks and Photoshop to create the great looking sites you see in our portfolio, however software such as these can run hundreds ($600 +) of dollars.
The 'cheaper' software such as Front Page from Microsoft is still widely used these days by small businesses. Is it a good choice for you?
The first question to ask is how much updating or modifications do you plan on making on the website? If we designed the site and you have an older version of Front Page, there is a good chance Front Page will not correctly update the site and may throw tables out of whack. We also design in CSS and Server Side Includes (SSI). Front Page may not be as friendly of a software to handle such elements in our designs.
Should you need to update on a regular basis and Front Page is the only option, Make sure whoever designed the website for you hasn't designed it in a way that Front Page may corrupt the files.
If you are designing on your own, and funds are limited, Adobe GoLive is another great option. Like Front Page, GoLive comes with templates for quick layout choices, or you can take a stab at your own creation.
It is always a wise business choice to invest some money in a good, professional web design. You may find freelancers who are more accommodating in price than a large, multimedia company.
