My sister use WIX to design and host her website.<br />
<br />
She is not happy with the price but has been putting with it because it's easy to use.<br />
However, she only just found out that they charge an extra $6 per month for an email address. (xxx@herdomain.com) <br />
And to top it all, WIX make it very complicated and cheap for themselves by using Google Tools for their email.<br />
<br />
Are there any comparable DIY services available that won't rip her off like WIX.<br />
Using dreamweaver or any such program is not an option .... it has to be DIY, requiring only low level skills.<br />

Web development includes all aspects of presenting content on intranets and the Internet, including delivery development, protocols, languages and standards, server software, browser clients, databases and multimedia generation.

A web server refers to the software that helps to deliver web content that can be accessed either through the Internet or through an intranet. The primary function of a web server is to store, process and deliver web pages to clients. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling email, FTP, etc.

Web Servers

A Web service is a method of communication between two electronic devices over a network. It is a software function provided at a network address over the Web with the service always on as in the concept of utility computing. A web service has an interface described in Web Services Description Language (WSDL). Other systems interact with the Web service in a manner prescribed by its description using SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) messages. There are two major classes of Web services: REST-compliant web services, and Arbitrary web services.

Also known as "natural" or "organic" search, it is distinct from paid web advertising. Performance is typically measured by testing the appearance of a website for targeted search terms, and more specifically, ranked positions in search for important keywords. Techniques focus on content optimization, technical optimization and link building.
