What online design site is the best for making your own website?

[Ethical Studios]

Hello,

Website builders are good for creating a website for free, or for a low budget. My personal favorite is http://www.drupalgardens.com. Here are some others:

http://www.yola.com
http://www.weebly.com
http://www.webs.com

Advantages:

These do-it-yourself platforms are very cost-effective and enable even the smallest organisation to get online. They offer functionality at a click and designs that can be changed in just a few seconds. Do-it-yourself platforms are also supported by active communities who pride themselves on solving any problems that might arise.

What to watch out for:

These platforms do have their limitations: your organisation will need to be flexible about what it wants from them. If you anticipate your content will evolve quickly, structure a website that can be expanded or exported to a more complex build. Think about what future functionality you may want – customisation tends to be less flexible than developers claim. You’ll also need to put in a lot of time or employ an expert to help out. Organising online information effectively and implementing good design demand time and experience.

Hope that helps! Check out this article for more details and other options: http://www.ethicalstudios.com/en/blog/ge...our-budget
