A Mac and iWeb.* That’s all you need to design and publish your own personal website. Start by picking an Apple-designed theme. Each theme comes with coordinated fonts, backgrounds and colours to give your site a consistent look throughout.

Next choose a page template. iWeb features ready-made templates for welcome, about me, photo album, movie, blog and podcast pages. Create as many pages as you like.

Then it’s time to customise your layout with easy-to-use iWeb tools. Drag in photos or movies or type text into placeholders. Resize and rotate photos. Create overlays. There’s no coding required. No complicated design programs to buy. No obstacles between you and a great-looking website.

Just click the Media button to open the iLife Media Browser: a list of all the audio, photos and video on your Mac. Find what you want to share and drag it right into your web page, photo album, blog or podcast.

If you share lots of photos and movies on your website, iWeb also includes My Albums pages that collect all your media albums on a single page — so they’re easy to share and to browse.

The iWeb Widget Browser puts every widget within reach. All you do is drop the widget you want anywhere on your page.
