Hello, I'm new to web development and recently got my own domain name and web host. I was curious if anyone knew a good FREE website builder or if most of you rather use notepad. I have a good sense of html that I have been teaching myself for about the past month now. If any of you have any tips on how I should get started please let me know. Thanks!

It's HTML-Kit (http://www.chami.com/html-kit/) all the way!

I stick with the good ol' notepad! I find you have more control over your page and you don't get useless junk in your code like:

<META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0">

and things like that! So NOTEPAD is where it's at!

I recomend any text editor with syntax highlighting.

Why doesn't anyone use notpad anymore? :confused: It thought that's what all TURE web masters used!:p I guess it's easier to get software or scripts to do it for you! :(

That's good! I was getting a bit worried that people no longer used notpad! I'm happy to see that there are still people who use the good ol' HTML code without a program!!! NOTEPAD ROCKS!!!! :p

you don't necessarily have to do what everyone else is doing. i would suggest trying a few programs and using whichever you like the most, be it notepad or whatever.

I agree with rhsundergound! You should try out different ones and see which one works the best for you! If you don't like typing all the code out or you think it takes too long then don't use notepad because other programs do pretty much the same thing but quicker! But notepad is still better!
