This thread is dedicated two of my closet friends, Rob Grauert for his original thread "website QC" and Heidi Mueller.

When developing a website, what program, if any do you use ?

Criteria is...

1) The program name

2) Your experience (it really doesn't matter because if you want to learn, we will teach you)

3) How you promote yourself or business online...

and basically any additional information that will help those in need.

Please do not step on this thread because it is intended to help those in need.

I have used Webs, Weebly, iWeb and Ning (deleted my account before they start charging) I don't know one thing about HTML, well I know how the embed a video, that's a start :-) For me having the website is just for informational purposes, contact info and having my video portfolio. As a video producer I don't have time to learn HTML, Javascript, Flash and if there are FREE ways of doing a website I don't see it as an immediate thing to learn. Luckily my brother knows all that and use Dreamweaver.

Promoting the business online is having all the videos in as many videos sites as possible, Facebook, Twitter, etc and for that exact purpose I used TubeMogul, but my account was suspended for having commercial content and a business account charges from $50 to $1500 a month with a 1 year commitment. There is also Traffic Geyser, but is $97 a month, but some peoples comments are giving me a lot of doubts.

I still like hand coding of html (dinosaur that I am) but I believe Dreamweaver has become the tool of choice for most professional web developers I know.

I also use Joomla. It is very easy to learn, but most of all is free. It is "Open Source", (like FireFox) that allows development companies a way to develop free modules.
