Hi all
I work for a company called Sitesell as a tech support bod.
they have a web business building product called Site Build
It! or SBI!.
It works very well indeed with jaws 5 and later.
It's all browser based and pretty intuitive.
It's primarily for those who want to build a business site,
either to promote their offline ventures or to start from
scratch online.
Over 30% of SBI! sites appear in the top 1% of the most
visited sites on the net, and over 50% appear in the top 3%
the main problem with the build an HTML site and stick it on
a web server is, now it's there, who's going to visit it.
There is no such thing as passerby traffic online.
If you don't have your site appear on the first couple of
results pages in Google or yahoo etc, your site may as well
not exist.
And it's about the price of a mars bar a day.
I'm not trying any hard sell here, if I were I'd put an
affiliate link and get a commission.
but my own www.bigmixentertainment.co.uk site now generate
99% of my business.
I no longer use Yellow Pages and most of my 2,000 visitors a
month come from search engines.
So, if anyone here runs a business and wants an all in one
business building and promoting solution, feel free to write
to me off list and I'll give you all the relevant
information.
Sorry for waffling, I just get carried away.
Darren

Babs,
If you want to do it right, I'd suggest you take a look at
basic
tutorials on the W3 schools website, and all you need is a
good
imagination for what you are trying to build, and a good
text editor
like notepad or notetab light.
I work to the xhtml level with CSS, style sheets and my
handywork can be
found at http://www.scottishblindgolf.com
If you want full control of your website content and design,
you'll get
lots of people suggesting a similar path to what I describe,
and not as
you'd think, using Front Page, Dream Weaver or other such
fancy web
building tools. I'm sure it's improving all the time, but
jaws
historically hasn't enjoyed the best working relationship
with these
programmes.
Try going to a fairly basic webpage, open the file menu and
click
source. Here you'll see a file open up in notepad or wordpad
and it
shows you exactly what code you build and how it is
displayed through a
browser.
Good luck,
Robin.

I am using JAWS 6.2 and Windows XP Home. I consider myself
PC and
Internet
literate to I guess a high-ish level.
So, I would like some advice re building websites which I
have very
little
knowledge experience of. I want to build a website for both
personal and
work content. I'm not going for anything to sophisticated.
Is it
possible
for me to do this all myself with JAWS and no sight? If so,
what
software
can anyone recommend? If anyone on here has built their own
website I'd
be
grateful for their advice off-list perhaps?
Many thanks.
Barbara Wilson
