Don’t get too overwhelmed with finding web software, your blog will be your “new” content for a while, as well as your squeeze pages and affiliate redirect.

A great site that I spotted today is SproutBuilder.com – You can build a great quick online mini site, about me page, including multimedia, etc
Sprout is the quick and easy way for anyone to build, publish, and manage widgets, mini-sites, mashups, banners and more. Any size, any number of pages. Include video, audio, images and newsfeeds and choose from dozens of pre-built components and web services. The site looks really professional and I’m pretty sure that anyone even those without any technical ability will be able to create a great website with it.

Alternatively, just use Brian’s free software at his page, or the 1stpage (below) to modify your squeeze pages enough to get it online to begin with.

If you are interested in what I use, I use a combination of Drupal, Frontpage, Wordpress and XSitePro.

I’m an absolute newbie at Drupal and it is quite difficult to learn, but it’s perfect for this website, as in, frontpage and xsitepro is no good for these kinds of “membership sites”.

But they are good for affiliate sites.

So if you intend on making your own membership site like mine, you might also want to look into Drupal (http://drupal.org), it does my head in though, I’m constantly strained at wanting to basic things lol.. my head hurts :)

Actually, thinking about it… Wordpress will probably fill the needs of everything you want to do, and it’s free :)

XSitePro is software built specifically for affiliate programs, and you can read my review about it when I first bought it on one of my blogs:

or directly to that page if the search above doesnt work:

And Frontpage is a Microsoft product.

There are so many good web software out there, and most can do everything you’ll need it to do. I only use Frontpage because I learnt it first and am the most familiar with it. It’s not as fantastic as some of the ones you can buy thesedays.

And I use XSitePro because it’s really easy to build lots of pages that are SEO optimized really quickly and has in-built features to save you doing a lot of the manual crap :)
