Our first website was designed by a pretty good web designer. We did not know much about websites and he helped us quite a bit. However, it became increasingly difficult to get updates uploaded and content changed. So, we began looking for another. Then, we found Homestead.com. We were dubious that we could get all the features of programs like Front Page or Dreamweaver that lots of web designers use. In fact there are some features like drop-down menus we don’t have that might be nice. We can accept the compromise because their design software is pretty easy to learn and use.
Here are some cool things about Homestead:
1. You can have them design your website for about $1,000 and they do a pretty good job with SiteBuilder.
2. Or, you can design your own with their program SiteBuilder (we did this).
3. You can easily maintain your own website with the same SiteBuilder. This assumes you are reasonably comfortable with Windows programs like Word or Publisher since SiteBuilder acts much like these.
4. They will host your domain and email and help you set these up.
5. They have very good tech support to help you through issues
6. The cost for us is less than $30/month
