Best Website Builder - Help Me Choose
-
I need to built a multi language site (to built a Pilates, Yoga site) and I will use a site builder. After posting questions on wix.com I came to the fact I should continue my research because there are not SEO friendly.
Do you have a suggestions?
Limited to html knowledge, using a website builder is my only option.
Here are some of the features I need:
- Multilanguage Web Site
- Mobile version
- SEO Friendly
- Nice Template Selections( this is important)
- HTML customization
- Twitter, Facebook, Blog...
I'm not looking at free website builder, when you want good features, there is a price to paid.
Thank you for your help and suggestions,

Sorry for the late response, but you should also check out Breezi, as it meets all of your requirements and then some (and yes, I'm from Breezi, so I'm biased of course). WordPress is a good platform as well, but the drawback is that you'll likely spend a lot of time in theme customizations, installing plugins, etc.
We have a limited number of pre-designed themes currently, but we'll be ramping up over the next few weeks and adding a lot more.
Good luck, let me know if you have any questions!

Would it be spammy of me to say www.basekit.com?! It has everything you need. It's either us or SquareSpace - we're regarded as the best. All the others are pretty lacking or use flash. Even Wix's recent HTML5 push is still very much flash-based.

Well, you can perform a search for 'Free premium wordpress themes' and you'll get a very big selection of fantastic designs or you can go to elegantthemes.com and pay for one.
And yes Wordpress is very SEO friendly I believe Matt Cutts even said so.
Hope this helps

You are right, themes looks better then everything a saw in all website builder.
Do you other suggestions site for templates? I don't want a Blog look, I want to built a nice looking website for my Wife who is starting a Pilates Studio soon.
Also, is Worldpress SEO frendly?
Thank you for your help,

I have never used it, but to be honest - the builder itself is probably irrelevant due to your specific requirements. As most sitebuilders are exactly the same - they just have different features - so if you find one with all the features you need go with it!
The only variable is if this builder is also the Host - in this situation just make sure you verify its uptime, support and service.
Hope this helps

You can easily build a website with wordpress and there's loads of themes you can choose from which you can then edit. Have a look at these an see if you like any. They're all free by the way - http://www.fabthemes.com/

I'M trying Webnode, any advice about them?
-
Personally - with your requirements, you are either going to have to do an in depth search of products that will fit your needs - the closest I would say is Weebly or the like - I really think though with your needs, you will be much better off with a CMS - it is a learning curve, but more control.
Other than that - I would suggest learning coding languages
Sitebuilders are built to be easy, and your needs are sort of outside the realm of a normal sitebuilder user.

WordPress is to built Blog, right?
I need a complet website
-
I need to built a site where you can select the language.
The site will french and english. -
I strongly recommend you build the site using Wordpress, site builders are usually very limited.
-
It really depends on your preference....
-
you can most definitely customize the URL with Weebly.... But the language? How do you mean? In page translation? Or the controls of the program in another language?
-
It look like they don't have multi language site.
also, not possible to customize page url.Any other options?
-
How about using software, like Intuit?
Wil it be better to use software or a online site builder ?
Thank you,
BigBlaze

if you need hosting and the builder - weebly.com is a pretty good choice - there are drawbacks of course to any sitebuilder, and limited HTML knowledge.
But in my expereince if you are not looking for a CMS, just a "drag and drop" builder - weebly is 100000 times better than wix - as you found out wix is HORRIBLE for SEO.
If you are looking for a little more customization - just find a host that offers a sitebuilder - like Fatcow - they offer weebly pro for an additional price AND you have all the FTP abilities to make advanced HTML changes and additions after using weebly to publish the core components.
Learning HTML and becoming very proficient in it, and its counterparts (php asp ect..) is crucial to SEO though...
Hope this helps

Index Page Redirect to Home Page? Best Practices...
Hi, I am wondering what the best practice is when a site has an index page and a home page? I have two pages, listed below, and want to know if I should 301 redirect my "index" page to my standard home page. The home page is where I would like all traffic to fall on for our website. Additionally, I used the rel=canonical tag years ago on the index page to indicate that the home page is the main content. Home Page - https://www.1099pro.com/ (PA 45) Home Page Canonical: rel="canonical" href="https://www.1099pro.com/"/> Index Page - https://www.1099pro.com/index.asp (PA - 33) Index Page Canonical: rel="canonical" href="https://www.1099pro.com/"/> It seems to me that there is some extra juice that could be passed to my home page (which is the page that ranks highly for our major keywords) by 301 redirecting the index page. Is there any reason why I should not do that? Really appreciate any help - especially with extra explanations - for the simple minded like me ;)! -Michael

Meta author. Is it relevant for website design company in its seo?
We don't usually add the meta author in the websites that we develop. I wonder if it would have any positive effect in our seo. We usually add a link in the footer like this "Diseño Web Vigo "(Website Development in Vigo). I am worry about this links. I'm not sure if they are positive because they are in the footer and so the link appears in all of the pages. Besides all these websites we develop are hosted in two different servers, and google could easily think that it is manipulative thing. What do you think? Thanks!!! 🙂
