"Web Design made simple"

thewritecoach Sep 10, 2010

PROS

I was so happy to find a program that allows me, a complete non-techy, to make my own website. I love how easy it is to set up a blog, mailing list, and paypal. I also like that I can be my own admin and make changes to my site whenever I want.

CONS

None. It's been really well developed and thought out.

SUMMARY

This is a must for any small or home-based business that wants to have a professional, personalized website but doesn't want to spend hundreds of dollars. It really is a bargain!

"Excellent! Especially if you are displaying photos!!"

PROS

So many options and so easy to use. It is the best! Website doesn't look like it came out of a box, but custom made. With included mailing list tool don't have to purchase separately. One-time fee, not monthly payments to keep own files like others.

CONS

Nothing! It's the best!

SUMMARY

Unlimited possibilites with this sofware. Highly recommend it.

(via CNET

 

"I have never written a review or provided a testimonial for many reasons. Maybe the main reason is because I just don’t feel passionate about a company or product either positively or negatively. Most stuff is just meh…neutral. 

Ultimatewb on the other hand is a fantastic company. The product and service is exceptional. Their service is attentive, prompt, caring and considerate, and I feel as if I am part of their family. The product is very comprehensive, flexible (multiple possibilities), fluid, and fresh (offers many things other companies don't). Even still, they add features without fees and help you utilize it (If you can dream it, you can find a way to do it on their website. And if you can’t figure it out, they will help or add that feature.). There is no nickeling and diming, and stuffing product down your throat and two faced service like a company that loves to advertise at Superbowls..."
