I have seen better programs than the one offered today @GOTD. However, after reading the comments of those that tested it, I downloaded it too, and experimented. They (commentators) are correct with regards to developer's "...but it features fewer options. " This software is good for just "getting started".
I use Composer, which you can get from SeaMonkey (http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/ ), the "real" Netscape (remember that one?) Well, Mozilla owns the engine (yes, maker of Firefox) and the skin was given away by Anderson (& AOL only wanted the name?) This is a good program to learn Web design /creation. Give it a try, besides, it a 4-in-one: Browser, E-Mail, Composer, & IRC Chat!

Would this offer anything you couldn't get with Wordpress or Drupal or any other blogging software that comes with any hosting package?

I've used free "komposer" for 11 years to build my website. It's simple to use for a novice and it has the capability to use advanced programing features.

It uses WYSIWYG or you can write in source code. You can also publish your files from within komposer etc. Although I prefere to use FireFTP to publish the articles etc.

When it says register here, it takes you back to giveawayoftheday,com.

Can't receive password.

I followed the last step as well which is onlt the download link.

HELP!

Don't build your business website with this tool, since the site will not be responsive in nature (i.e. it won't resize it on Mobile platform). Google search engine ranking has responsiveness as one of the key aspect of a website. So, your business site will never be ranked higher due to this limitation.

I have Website X5 Home 12. Does anyone know the difference between todays giveaway and the Home addition?

So. The description states
"Like the other WebSite X5 programs, it's based on the 5 step method to build sites without coding but it features fewer options"

This is all true. Open the software and start with step 1. Complete the few options that are available then click next to step 2 and so on through step 3,4,5.

The features fewer options statement is also true. Very limited specific options.

I find the program difficult to navigate, yielding very minimal results. A program should have strong direction. The user should easily be able to complete a specific task, and know when they should move on to next.

The program does not offer the best guidelines, so if you are an absolute beginner, I believe this would confuse you.

If you are familiar with other software, keep using that.

Just an opinion.

Where in the world do I go to get what I need to verify my8 email address and get what I need to register this program.

Google Sites is so easy to use it and free, it is well designed like everything else Google provides. I have used www.mpdsupport.org for 12 years, it serves about 4,000 patients, it took me about 20 minutes to create it. Check it out. https://sites.google.com

Actually, this software IS for newbies, everything is pre-arranged, they have their own templates and it's impossible to customize or manipulate the way you want or like unless you complete the site and go deep into the bracketing and start coding to reflect the desired look. This is a play-making website builder that would NOT interest even a novice avid to create something worthy to hang out there.

Waiting, waiting, waiting for a long time... for registration!
Finaly I got it finding a surprise: it appeared you must pay for almost everything: templates and others!
Building a web using this soft is unconfortable because you can't see what you do..!
Uninstalled this messed soft and ready to look for a kind of WYSIWIG in which I could build a webside seeing constately what I do!

There are so many free alternatives ---even for commercial web sites--- it's a wonder anyone would even download this GOTD.

Anyway, this is not for n00bs, because you'll need additional software to upload to the server (and more software to run a local server); some knowledge to edit the code (html, css, javascript) although developers of this kind of software always say you don't need coding ---which is a false statement because the automatically produced code always s***s.

To much messing around with the registration process, uninstalled without trying the program. Keep it simple you lost mme

This version is far too basic. It doesn't include "responsive design" and in my opinion no-one should design a website just for PC's.

There are different versions of "Website X5", here's a comparison chart:
