I downloaded that once and couldn't for the life of me fathom what I was supposed to do with it. And for the price of Dreamweaver, I waned someone to hold my hand and 'splain it all to me in soothing tones whispered directly into my ear. So there's got to be something that falls between the amateur level programs like iWeb and RapdidWeaver and the heavy artillary designed for professional Web developers. Well, I GUESS there has to be something that falls in between, somethign that is both robust but delivers a WYSIWYG user interface. Can you name THAT program?

Your own site doesnt even come up top (#1) in Google for the search term "Nicholas Segura" and that's with the phrase in your domain. How about actually getting a domain top for results that have no match with anything in the URL? Requires more than just 9.99 and a slap happy approach.
