Option 1 : NVU - FREE

Beginning A Project in NVU

Nvu (pronounced "N-view," for a "new view") is a free, open source software program that allows you to build websites and web pages using a simple WYSIWYG editor (what-you-see-is-what-you-get). Nvu makes creating web pages as easy as using a word processor and rivals such programs as Adobe's Dreamweaver and Microsoft's Expression Web, only for free! With Nvu's built-in site manager, connecting to your website and making changes is a snap.

Option 3 : Dreamweaver

The third piece of software I recommend is Dreamweaver. This is an outstanding piece of software and is used by all of the top web designers / developers out there, but don’t get me wrong, this isn’t just a suitable piece of software for experts only, this caters for all levels of web design / development expertees, from absoloute novice to professional, you would have seen why its so easy to use by watching the video, if you haven’t watched the video yet please do, alot of HTML editors work in a similar way, you will learn alot. Dreamweaver does everything you would ever want it to, but it does cost quite a bit to purchase – at $400, but this is the only piece of HTML editing software you will ever need.

Whichever piece of software you choose go with i would recommend you use the tutorials on this website, purchase our recommended books and also carry out some google searches, the search query “dreamweaver tutorials” will suffice.
