Kevin Fletcher replied to Mike Mankins's discussion Rapid Weaver vs. CoffeeCup in the group Computer & Tech Help"Depends on what you are trying to accomplish.

Charles Max Wood replied to Mike Mankins's discussion Rapid Weaver vs. CoffeeCup in the group Computer & Tech Help"I really like Balsamiq Mockups. Note, it's not a design tool, it's a rough layout tool. It will get you on your way to knowing where everything goes. Then you can start adding colors, gradients, and fonts to the mix."

Rapid Weaver vs. CoffeeCup
Im trying to determine what the best website design software is. I have no HTML/code experience, so that is definitely not in the equation. I've never used either, but I've followed coffee cup for a while. So what are your thoughts/opinions?ThanksSee More

Mike Mankins commented on Rob Orr's group My Website Workshop"Hey group....it's been tremendously helpful being able to bounce ideas and ask questions. So....of course, I have some more questions. I've just bought a domain untanglingthewires.com. I don't have a website hosted yet but it's…"
Rich Berning replied to Mike Mankins's discussion Domain Sources in the group My Website Workshop"Good points, Peder. I'll reiterate what you said, that I wasn't clear about, and that is you will need to buy yet another domain at the place you will host your domain. So if your domain is on BlueHost, but your domain name was purchased…"
Peder Aadahl replied to Mike Mankins's discussion Domain Sources in the group My Website Workshop"Hey Mike
All of the comments above are really great. I can attest to the fact that I have used Host Gator (aff) and have had a very good experience. If you are new to setting up your own website for the first time, (which I can attest to…"
Rich Berning replied to Mike Mankins's discussion Domain Sources in the group My Website Workshop"I have quite a few domains I purchased at 1and1.com (though I have some at GoDaddy too... the .xxx tld is a recent issue, and frankly not one I had thought about until you brought it up. Out of (my) sight, out of (my) mind I guess.)

Rob Orr replied to Mike Mankins's discussion Domain Sources in the group My Website Workshop"Hi Mike - great question. As far as having a site it really depends on what you're trying to accomplish.

Hi Mike,
So glad you've joined up in the Finding your Voice group.

Congratulations on your master's degree. :-)
Sounds like you have quite a few interests. We have a studio in our home as well and record my show from here. I'm curious, why the strong interest in it for you?
If you're on Facebook, you're welcome to join in the fun in that group as well.

Kent Julian said… - Welcome Mike!
I try to take time each week to welcome new members to 48Days.Net. So, let me say "welcome" to you! I know you will find this to be a great site filled with people who are experiencing true success in both life and work.
Also, I'd like to point out that one of the best places to connect with other liked-minded people here is in the GROUPS section. There are groups for just about every interest you can think of, and if you can't find a group that interests you, you can start one. Groups are my favorite part of 48Days.Net!
Finally, if you happen to be a speaker or author (or want to become either), check out these two groups. They are two of the most popular groups on the site because of all the great conversation taking place:
* Speak It Forward -- REAL Success and Profit for Speakers!
* Write It Forward -- REAL Success and Profit for Writers!
Again, enjoy 48Days.Net. It's a great place to be!
Live it forward,
Kent Julian
