Apple's iWeb is the easiest way to create and publish great-looking websites, and you don't have to know anything about programming or web-authoring languages such as HTML.

After you have created your pages with iWeb, instead of publishing your site to MobileMe, you can publish your site to a folder on a local destination (your hard disk, for example), then you can use iWeb Valet to enhance in many ways your iWeb pages, and finally have your website uploaded to the web.
