Default Anyone using SiteGrinder here?

Just wondering if anyone has had some experience with this, I'm looking to redo my website soon and maybe SiteGrinder is a good tool for a code-phobe like me.

Any advice is much appreciated.

Depends how well it codes does it give any examples of the markup used?

I've not seen any, no....................but I do like the notion that I can develop a template in PS and just 'click a button' to get a working html version.
Maybe it's a false economy, I'm starting to wonder if commissioning a web designer is a better idea.........site building isn't really my thing!

I can almost guarantee that will produce poor, bloated mark-up unless you use it for the simplest of sites. Hand-coding is the only way to ensure full control over your code. You could either learn (you'd be surprised how quickly you pick it up) or hire a good designer (too many designers still use visual editors which I don't agree with).

Pete. :)

Yes I guess there's no silver bullet, coding is best for sure...........however I'm too busy on projects to spend time learning code.
Probably my best bet is to get the brief costed, then see how it compares to investing in the SW & time to do it myself.

Thanks for the input. :-)

this is an example of a site: Supreme Graphics

the coding isn't to bad, but there are a few to many divs for my liking, I like hand coding as well because i find it easier to edit if i need to!
