Default Anyone ever use this to create a site

I am trying to find an easy way to create a simple website. I came across this site but am wondering if anyone has ever used it. Also is there any catch, it seems to be free.

The site is www.fitpronetwork.com

Your feedback or other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thx, JAB

You're better off setting up a myspace and facebook profile and even a group for your services. Everyone is already a member of facebook so you can get your name out there the best.

You can also use a simple blogging platform like Wordpress to set up a site.

I maintain our dojo site off of http://www.doteasy.com which is free, but I don't know the state of their web-building tools.

Regarding other aspects of free, it often becomes paid generally if you want to add bunches of more pages, have an increased traffic surge, etc.etc.etc. So you want to verify when you'll be asked for your credit card (our dojo is local, so it's been free now for years).

I generally build sites by hand myself but feel free to PM me if you have specific questions.

Hope that helps,

Barbara

Good call, a blog is a great way to get a web presence as it indexes quickly in the search engines as well.

You can also hook your blog up with a domain name for a measly $10 bucks.

Facebook would be a good addition to your blog to publicize it.
