Hey all,
it is a good idea to offer web design along with hosting, imo.
The "trouble" is that some customers (more and more in fact) want to
be able to update their web sites on their own...
...so much for the need of a webmaster (me).

Anyway, I offer Macromedia Contribute, easy to menage and to learn.

What do you guys do if client wants to dance alone?

tnx

I would let them.

They are paying so they can do as they wish with their site and i would just provide help when they need it. :)

I write them an admin script in PHP that lets them add/edit/remove pages and content etc. and just help them when they need it, if that's what you meant?

Well, I will have to look into it to be able to comment.

But it sure beats Macromedia Contribute 2.
If not else, it os Open Source...
