It might sound like a contradiction… but it’s entirely possible to design a website “without” designing a website …and what’s more I’ve got 7 quick and easy ways for you to do it that won’t cost you a single penny.
So exactly how do you design a website without designing a website? The simple answer is you “legally” use other people’s website designs, all you do is add your own content.
There are exactly 7 ways you can do this (all without even touching an HTML editor!)…
1. Go to WordPress.com and create a WordPress blog using one of the templates they give you (this one’s really obvious which is why it’s first in the list). If you’re thinking a blog isn’t a website you’re wrong, it is. It’s all down to how you set it up and which template design you chose to use.
2. Go to Weebly.com where you can create a website and a blog. Through their drag and drop interface you can create your website in minutes, using any of their excellent website templates.
3. Go to Roxer.com and create a website using their simple and easy to use interface, it’s not quite as good as Weebly or some of the others in this list but it gets the job done quickly and easily.
4. Go to BlinkWeb.com and create anything from a standard website to a blog or even a direct response sales letter! This has got to be my favorite online website creation tool for anyone who wants to get something up and running and into profit quick.
5. Go to Google Sites and create a more basic and functional looking website. Becuase fewer templates are provided. It looks like this is aimed at publishing pure content which can be updated by a group of people.
6. Go to Google Page Creator where you can easily create a really nice looking clean website with lots of templates to chose from.
7. Go to Knol and create an authority style content website. There are no templates designs to chose here, but it’s not really needed because the default page design is already very good.
As I see it the main benefit to Knol is all about content and because it’s run by Google I suspect that any content you add there will get quickly spidered and indexed. (I’m about to test this out to see how true it is).
So there you have it, my top 7 pick of places you can go and design a website “without” designing a website.

I have used Wordpress and Google Pages and like them both, for their individual purpose. Thank you for the research and more sites to try out.
Design is the fun part…it’s creating valuable content that is real work, and I prefer to put it on my own sites, not theirs.
Good ideas nevertheless.
