Online site builder, only really sitedepth worth looking at if your thinking big and serious, majority of the porn sites on the net use it, pc based look at netobject fusion. There are other site builders online, my hosting packages include something RV Site Builder, never used it myself. There are also tools like Joomla, Typ0, and CMS like PHPNuke etc, loads out there.

I have a 2000 page site on netobject fusion thats turned into a proper ball ache now I need to convert to PHP so make sure you don't go for anything bigger than 32-50 pages with it

Your better learning html, css and paintshop so you can have the control you need.

From what I've just seen from your site and without signing up (wife wouldn't be best pleased ) it's not a bad site. Ok, it's table layout and the mark-up is dreadful, but it's pleasing to the eye and clear to navigate. Couldn't see any revenue streams though?

The thing with turnkey sites is that they don't just instantly earn you money. It's simply a quick way to get a site running with possible potential, but you'll need to invest a lot of time (money) to actually start getting users / income from it. With such a competitive market, I'd maybe consider attacking something smaller perhaps?

Going back to actually creating a website I would honestly consider learning the basics rather than using "site builders" / "tools".

I know 123-reg do one, but like I mentioned previously I've never used them.

Another tack you could perhaps take is something like word press or another similar CMS? You simple install the script, which will give you a simple web based editor to maintain the content. Popular ones like word press have a lot of template designs which you can purchase or use the common freebies.

After rambling a bit, I'm off to bed now.

Skinner beat me to it with some good advice
-
"There are also tools like Joomla, Typ0, and CMS like PHPNuke etc, loads out there."

Wordpress is just another example.

I don't like word press, its a tool that started out as one thing, but morphed rather badly into something else. Wordpress rocks for blogs and news but its not practical to make a site with.

Personally if I was going to use on of these, I'd use Typ03 as its so very powerful, followed by Joomla/Drupal (coinflip time). If you want all in one neat looking with minimal fuss and uniformity Nuke is the way.

Available with Fantastio Delux is

Drupal
Geeklog
Joomla 1.5
Joomla
Mambo Open Source
PHP-Nuke
phpWCMS
phpWebSite
Post-Nuke
Siteframe
TYPO3
Xoops

A few to look at that.
