Q. What is Website Builder?
The web builder is a simple solution that allows you to build a website without requiring any technical knowledge at all. You simply log in online, choose a template for your site, define the structure of the pages - then add text, images and other elements.
The UK Website Builder from 123-reg is different from other tools because it gives you complete control over your site. You can customise it as little or as much as you like. The included templates give you lots of flexibility to move elements around at will using the simple drag and drop interface.
You can import images and embed videos, Twitter updates and feeds from other websites into your pages.
If you're a web designer or developer, you'll appreciate the advanced options available with the site builder Business package. The groundbreaking PSD slicing option will automatically generate standards compliant HTML-CSS from a layered PSD file that you upload.
Additionally, the editing tools included in the web builder will allow you to directly edit your site's underlying HTML and CSS code. This saves you heaps of time building a website, without requiring you to settle for substandard code.

The PSD slicing function automatically generates standards compliant HTML-CSS when you upload a layered PSD file. It puts an end to manually slicing and coding PSD files.
