Recommended Tools & Resources

These suggested software applications are currently being used by ME Webhost clients and professional webmasters. In general, you only need two things to create a great-looking website: A professional HTML editing application and a graphics-production application. We have personally-tested each of these resources and highly recommend them to you.

Microsoft FrontPage 2003 -- A well-know HTML editing application which provides the features, flexibility, and functionality to help you build websites via an easy WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) interface.

Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 -- The industry-leading HTML editing application which enables users to efficiently design, develop and maintain websites. A world-class design and code editor in a single tool, Dreamweaver 8 is designed for the most advanced web developers, as well as for the less experienced. ME Webhost's own site was developed using MacroMedia Dreamweaver 8.

Corel Paint Shop Pro X -- The all-in-one solution for photo editing and professional web-graphics production. Paint Shop Pro has many of the same features as the more-expensive Adobe Photoshop application, but costs hundreds of dollars less. If you're looking for a quality all-in-one solution for producing exceptional web-graphics, but don't want to pay a fortune, Paint Shop Pro is for you.

Adobe Photoshop -- The industry-standard for digital imaging. Simply the best software for photographers, web designers, and professional graphic artists. Packed with features for novices to professional advanced users. All of ME Webhost's graphics were designed and created using Adobe Photoshop.

Macromedia Fireworks -- An excellent graphics design package which delivers impressive results. Automatically generate graphics and JavaScript for buttons, interactive interfaces, and pop-up menus without learning how to write code. Produce highly optimized files that still look great -- and get top-quality design results.

ME Webhost's Site Builder-- If you're new to the web, just getting started, don't consider yourself artistic or you simply don't want to spend a lot of time learning how to use a graphics program, then ME Webhost's SiteBuilder is for you. SiteBuilder comes free with all hosting packages and is available from your control panel.
