Designing and publishing a website that you're proud of is not as hard as you may think. Especially nowadays, because there is software available that automates much of the work that used to be relegated to the webmaster (which is you!).

It used to be that in order to build a website from scratch, you had to know HTML, or ""Hyper Text Markup Language."" And truth be told, you are still better off knowing at least the basics of HTML. Nevertheless, it's not required. Especially if you find easy web design software that takes care of this for you. Now, every single HTML editor on the planet now features a ""WYSIWYG"" interface. (What You See Is What You Get.) So, theoretically, you shouldn't have to know the first thing about HTML.

The reality, however, is that not all HTML editors (or ""web design software"") does WYSIWYG well. Little annoying problems tend to crop up. For example, say you typed the following sentence using your handy HTML editor:

""Discover the best places to SCUBA dive in the Cayman Islands."" You want ""best places"" to be italicized and ""Cayman Islands"" to be bolded, as shown. The way it's supposed to work is this:

Behind the scenes, your HTML editor is supposed to 'type' the phrase as such: Discover the < I >best places< /I > to SCUBA dive in the < B >Cayman Islands< /B >. (I put extra spaces between the tags for this example, in order to keep the article publishing software from parsing it like normal HTML.)

But instead, this is what you get: ""Discover the best places to SCUBA dive in the Cayman Islands."" Even though you highlighted the words ""best places"" and clicked the little graphical icon on your html editor's toolbar that represented italics, your phrase comes out non-italicized. And/or your bolded words are not bolded.

Well, in this instance, you'd have to go to the ""Source View"" of your HTML editor and manually insert the above HTML tags to make these things happen. This is a very annoying problem with too many popular web design software titles nowadays.

Another problem that will have you pulling your hair out, is seeing a totally different result in the web browser than you see in your HTML editor window. For example, your formatting changes are (apparently) taking effect as you type--just as it should (remember it's supposed to be WYSIWYG)...

However, they don't show up when you publish the page to the internet! I don't know why, but this problem still plagues most web design software.

Fortunately, there are a few (very few) shining stars that work for cheap, while doing all the other things to make your website pretty and (if you're so inclined) draw customers.

Just because a HTML editor is expensive, does not make it easy to use or reliable. Discover easy web design software that also delivers on its hype of producing stunning, profit-pulling websites. Charles Brown is a webmaster on a mission. Visit his site sometime at http://honestysellsbest.com
