Simple Website builder

[Herdfan]

I need a simple website builder. I don't want to use any of the free online ones, but instead software I can use on my own computer.

Free is good, but if a good one costs a few $ then that's OK.

Not building a complicated site, but instead one for parents of kids on a swim team to get forms, schedules, results etc. Maybe a few photos as well. I want functional more than fancy.

Thanks.

I swear by Wordpress, especially for your purpose which would need frequent updating and a calendar. You have to get your own host though (if you don't already have one).

And, if you're running a Windows Home Server there is a newly developed add-in for Wordpress on WHS. http://www.mediasmartserver.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5525

There is also Kompozer.

KompoZer is an easy-to-use WYSIWYG web page editor. It is designed to be extremely easy to use, making it ideal for non-technical computer users who want to create a web site without needing to know HTML coding.

You might also try Coffeecup's products. http://www.coffeecup.com

They have both WYSIWYG and html editors and a website builder in addition to a host of other products at reasonable prices.
I tried their free html editor a year or two ago and found it to be quite good.

If you're running a Mac iWeb is pretty easy.

Joomla seems to be the all the rage these days.
