Designing your homepage isn't that easy. There are various online tools that will enable you to produce a quick site, but more often than not, these design tools will require you to host the site, rather than enable you to host it on your own server. Move across to a Mac and you'll soon find there are a range of tools that are supplied with a collection of pre-defined templates, so you can get your site online as quickly as possible. You just need to drop in the text, graphics and other components.

Rapidweaver 4 is a superb commercial Mac-only web design tool that's undergone a major refresh, for the Leopard operating system. It uses various components found in Leopard to add visual improvements to the user interface. It now looks superb and, best of all, is a free upgrade for any existing Rapidweaver 3.x user.
