Most user friendly website tool ever August 10, 2008

Over the years I have struggled with a variety of website creation applications from Dreamweaver to Front Page and found all of them either overly complex or confusingly structured. So it was with not a lot of enthusiasm that I approached a new one. What a surprise was in store for me.
Here was a program which that was actually easy to use, allowed you to instantly correct errors, permitted you to work entirely off line and was genuinely WYSIWYG. Best of all the end result actually looks professional. With this tool you can get a very slick and impressive looking website up there in minutes.
The Good:
Very simple to use
Genuinely WYSIWYG in operation
Inexpensive
Good looking results very quickly
Very active support site and forum
The Bad:
Websites can similar to each other
Restricted to working within a small screen window
Adding external code can be tricky.
No option to import an existing website
If you have no coding experience and want to get a good looking website online quickly without tearing your hair out - look no forther.
Ten stars, if there were that many to give! August 4, 2008

I agree with everything in Michele's review (27 December 2007)! This is a FANTASTIC program and I would highly recommend it to anyone who needs a website and has even a minimum knowledge of computers. Please give it a try before spending hundreds of pounds for someone else to do it for you (or not even finish it, as in my case!) I have never written a review before, but this product deserves it - I would give it ten stars if I could!
I spent a year trying to get my own website up and going - I hired two different "professional" website builders and lost two substantial deposits, but the job was never finished. I wasn't asking for a fancy website, I just wanted a clean professional site to showcase my artwork! But I was told by the "professionals" that every little detail (such as shadowing under words, etc) would take more time and money, and that I would not be able to update or change things on the website myself - that would incur even more charges!
Finally, in desperation, I decided to try doing it myself. I did my research and then ordered "WebSite X5 Evolution" from Amazon. In three days, I finished a beautiful website (The Art of Domini Deane) - and it is one that I have total control over - no payments to a web builder every time I need to update or change anything, I just do it all myself! I haven't even set up the shopping cart elements, as I don't need them yet, but it will be simple to do when I am ready. And all for the one-time price of this software! Thank you Amazon and thank you WebSite X5 Evolution!

What a lovely piece of kit, I'd never built a site before but feel quite confident with most computer applications. The other reviews helped make my mind up and I wasn't disappointed.
I did find one or two small issues which were easily over come but nothing to worry a novice with. There doesn't seem to be a feature button to go from one page to the next but maybe it's just my inexperience.
I also built an imaginary site to start with as a practice, which I found helpful in avoiding any mistakes with the real one. All this is of course done off-line.
A super program at a good price 9/10.
Easy, simple, loaded with extras, Best software so far. July 9, 2008

I tried this as a demo and created a partial website with great looking menus, pages with templates, transitions. I had no experience at all with web building and made a great looking partial site. So easy and simple to do, no need to learn any html. I dont usually buy any software but this I had to part money with.
I have tried so many others even the really expensive dreamweaver which is totally over rated and had problems and confilcts with it. I have played with this on XP Pro and Windows Vista Ultimate, works great.
You could create a quick site in a few days and a really good one in a month or two, depending on your free time.

As a small business owner I was looking for something affordable, easy-to-use and an "all-in-one" package to build my website. I came across this product in a recent review in one of the PC magazines - it came out top against all the competion by miles so I thought i would give it a go. I have been using the software now for about two months and have not looked back.
The interface is so easy to use, there are plenty of templates to choose from, you just pick one and off you go (you can easily create your own design too). Once I decided on the design of the site I then had to add content - this could not be simpler. The software works on a drag and drop basis, it has the same buttons as Microsoft applications for editing. There are also built in editors for photos - which is excellent as I have now set up an online shop and I do not have to re-size pictures etc.
I was able to launch my business online just ahead of Christmas and so far the sales have just been rolling in - it amazing. The shopping cart and payment functions have removed all obstacles for me.
I have noticed a couple of things that they be of interest to readers. Firstly, unlike most software applications for website design I have tried internet connection is not required when building the website - you can build the site completely offline and then up load when ready. Secondly, for the more experience users there is HTML available. And, finally, there is fantastic support for the product from tutorials to online resources. I would thoroughly recommend this product to anyone who wants to get started on the internet for home, business or just pleasure its a joy to use.
