Disappointed with the lack of iWeb updates, I too looked at Rapidweaver. I looked at their website and downloaded the demo. Unfortunately, RapidWeaver does not have the same drag & drop functionality or WYSIWYG interface that iWeb uses. To me, it looks clunky and linear.

Before the RapidWeaver fans jump in to defend their product, I'm sure it its a powerful program with loads of support. It also has what appears to be a steep learning curve, coming from iWeb.

And now the app store thinks I have the full version of RapidWeaver installed. Oh, joy.

Rapidweaver is excellent - however .... the price you pay is just for the App, you will need to spend more money on fancy themes and plugins that make it the app of choice

iWeb is free with every Mac so you decide

If you're worried about SEO then use a program from Rage called, iWeb SEO Tools. It's free and adds meta tags for page title, keywords, descriptions, images and allows you to insert analytic code.

Yes, alpha i already use that program, and it's great. With iweb though I'm mad about how it always messes up my stuff. Just this week google ended up indexing a page twice, and the cached version showed one page had the graphics while the other the text. i found the issue was the pre inserted text box in some of the iweb pages had some bugging coding in the box since it wouldn't ven let u cut it. So i had to create a new text box for each page. This is was with the blog pages.
