Out of all the sitebuilders that are included with most hosting accounts is the best overall ?

I would consider ones that are not only easy to use but ones that have a creative aspect to them.

In my opinion, there is no best one. If you want a quality site, avoid the site builders at all cost. These do not make the site look professional and gives an low quality look.

Invest in a designer - not only will you get a good template and handsome site, you'll get the results you want in terms of visitors and traffic.

Creative? A "sitebuilder"?

People are creative, "sitebuilders" are only as good as the programmers are, and for most programmers "being creative" would mean coming up with some good reasons to explain why the project is late.

SiteBuilders are the worst in terms of making a unique template for sure. I've seen some sites built by site builders and they look worse than sites from 1997.

You may try the other application for making templates.

Ermm? Yeess? Well errm thanks for that very less than helpful suggestion.

There's a few different builders out there that are decent in my opinion.

RV Sitebuilder
Soholauncher
Trendy Site Builder

These aren't technically "site builders", but they are great platforms that area easy to use.

Wordpress
Joomla
Drupal

YES! If you don't know how to build a site or don't have the means, a CMS like WordPress, Joomla, or Drupal (There are plenty free on the market - mostly PHP scripts) that will do the job just fine.

They won't give unique templates but they give you a platform to start on.

Thanks for sharing the inforamtion Some website builders are so basic and limited that you may easily become frustrated trying to put together a web site using one of them.

Supposedly these sample sites were made with RVSitebuilder...Somehow I just don't believe them. They look too clean and complex...

Not sure if you might be interested but EasyWebContent.com has themes that are elastic, making your website for customizable versus a fixed template from other sitebuilders.

You can consider RV-Site builder and Site Studio for building a basic site. If its for your Business, then its recommended to hire a Designer.

I know WebsiteBuilder is provided by many companies in their plans.

You are very much better off even going with WordPress and installing a basic theme. It will look ten folds better and a lot more professional. The customization is far superior.

These basic site builders are being put to shame by much better options now. Just the other day, I ran across a site that packages your content into a template so much better than anything I've seen on the market. It looked professional which was shocking!

RV Sitebuilder and Soholauncher are good ones.
