Website Builder #6: Yola

Today is Friday and I am now completing my FINAL website builder. For my final website builder i went to yola to create it. Starting the site was very easy. Creating my template and my information was also very easy. My info was added automatically saving some time and effort which was very helpful. Using the application was very easy and I completed my website in no time at all. Over all it was a great website planner and easy to make, there was no problems I could find and I would greatly recommend it. I am happy to say I am done with this project thingy so bye.6/3/11

Website Builder #5: Webnode

Today is Tuesday and today I made my next website builder at Webnode.com. It was fairly straight forward in the menu to get to make your own page. It was very easy to choose your template for your website. I liked how you could enter in your information and it would automatically put it in your webpage template. Uploading your images and changing the text was really easy to use. Also it was easy to use because they recreated the whole windows layout which was useful when exiting tabs and other stuff like that. I had problems tying to select the background but i figured it out. Other than that the whole application was amazing I loved working with this program it was great. I would greatly recommend this program to everyone.

Website Builder: #4 Roxer

For my forth website builder review I decided that I would try Roxer. When you first enter the website you can decide weather you want to sign in or sign up. After that you are brought to a page that shows you how to use the web builder which is very useful. They give you a example of a site and you can figure out how to use it without messing with your own site which was helpful. After you choose your template you go directly into designing you own web page. The only problem was i choose a template and it didn't show up so i tried again and it showed up but froze. It didn't make sense but I finally figured it out and continued to work on my page. The problem the that the "sample page" ended up being your home page. I thought that i was making my home page until i tried to type something and it didn't type. After some time i was left with no choice except to make make my page from scratch. This was a pain but so it didn't come out that good. Well trying to insert a text bubble I pressed enter witch deleted everything i had done i was not happy with this program now. This has got to be one of my worst websites I have ever built but here ya go.5/20/11

Website Builder #3 Wix

For my next website builder I chose Wix. It was very simple and easy to find your own template you would like to use in your website. The thing that i liked was when you pressed on anything there was a bar that listed what you can do with that particular action. It made it easy to find things and you never had to go threw the lists and find the action. One thing that got annoying was that some of the buttons and actions where disabling you view of your whole website. Other than that the rest of the application was easy to use and work with.

Website Builder #2:Weebly

For my second Website Builder I chose Weebly. After you enter in your personal info you choose what your title for your site is going to be along with the website location. Then our website is shown, you can easily decide what you like and want to keep and what you don't like and can delete. I like the layout for the whole application ten times better than moon fruit. Everything is easily accessible and you don't have to look hard for a feature. It is also very easy to get a new picture into your website unlike Moon-fruit. Inserting text boxes was extremely easy to. From start to end I really didn't have any difficulty figuring out anything. There is nothing bad to say about this program I completely loved how easy it was to make a website

Website Builder #1:Moonfruit

For the first website builder I used I decided to go to Moon fruit. There was a large selection of templates to use which was interesting but once I got into the program I had a very very hard time trying to do a very simple task of changing the company name. I had to resort to pressing every button on the application and only found how to do it by randomly clicking. After I was done with that I tried to upload a image. The way the image up loader was made it made you second guess yourself and didn't make sense of how to browse your files. I had to make my website really simple because I couldn't figure out how to use most of it. On top of all these problems the thing that really annoyed me was that you couldn't zoom out, it took me 45 minutes to find the stupid thing!!! The whole program had horrible placement and organization of the functions available. I  wouldn't recommend this application it was extremely annoying and I am limiting all of the problems that I had with this website builder.
