Put together Family website, easy app, technique - Microman - 11-30-2007

Years ago, I put up a web site, for a small investors club.

It worked, and I learned a little.

I now need to put up a site, that will show information for a family cabin, and its rental dates. With other information avalable to its users.

I assume I would again just upload it to my ISP, and have all logon, for current info.

Any suggestions on what to use

Thanks

Sounds like exactly the kind of project that iWeb was made for!

It's not real flexible, but it's a "complete package" of web page templates and building tool.

For something that simple, I would use iWeb. You already have it and there is relatively no learning curve. If you have a .Mac account you don't even need webhosting otherwise you can publish to a folder and FTP it to your ISP'a free space.

Another option is the space that your ISP provides as part of your package, but I think iWeb would be the easiest.

Third option would be Google's Blogger. All you are creating is a static site so it wouldn't take much work.

Another vote for iWeb; I do a lot of sites in it, everything from family sites to a few "for their use only" business sites for clients (like access to resumes, project sheets, etc.). Quick, easy, clean.

Here's my own biz site; http://www.core53.com
