WebPlus is a free website design software. Its website design suite is very similar to its free desktop publishing software, taking a more print-centered approach to designing a website. For this reason, it does not come across as the most convenient or conventional tool for designing a website presence, particularly for corporate purposes.
The free website design software has quite a crowded interface as well, meaning that it can be difficult to find the function you want. However, the fact remains that it still lets you do most of the website design by just doing drag and drop, which is a nice advantage. For more serious website development, you can try Adobe Dreamweaver alternative, or some simple WYSIWYG free HTML Editor.

Thoughts…
WebPlus makes a valiant effort to be different in the crowd of free website design software, but there are definitely better products out there. I would stick with my IDE for PHP, even though comparing that with WebPlus is an apples and oranges comparison. Another free software from the makers of WebPlus is PagePlus.
