    Create your site in 5 steps:

    General settings:

    Map creation:

The navigation menu will be dynamically created according to the map. In any moment you can change the map and use it to move between the different pages.

    Exporting the site

    Publish the site created on your space thanks to the supplied FTP engine. In case of updating, you can export only the modified files.

    Graphic function:

    Create your layout from scratch or use of the available graphics models

    How important are the graphics on your web pages? If you believe that this is one of the key elements in ensuring the success of a site, you will greatly appreciate the numerous options that WebSite X5 Evolution puts at your disposal. You can leaf through the more than 1000 predefined models and choose the one you want for your site, in the colour variation that you like best. By means of the appropriate graphics editor, you can personalise the predefined model banners, adding text and images. You can create an entirely personalised model and even animate it with Flash animation.

    Internal graphics editor:

    Images are often, possibly because taken directly from a camera, too big to be published on-line. With WebSite X5 Evolution this is no longer a problem: all imported images are automatically resized and improved. You will have no need of an external graphics programme, not even when using touching up tools such as cutting and rotating, the correction of contrast and luminosity, the application of filters (black and white, sepia, etc..), masks, frames and borders. In all such cases, you can use WebSite X5 Evolution's internal graphics editor.

    Color dropper tool:

    Whenever you can freely choose a color, WebSite X5 Evolution makes available the extremely useful color dropper tool, thanks to which you can "capture" the color of any object that is visualised, even outside the programme. Thanks to the Color dropper tool and the Color window, in which both RGB and hexadecimal values are presented, you can keep a strict control on the palette applied.

    Complete personalisation:

    As well as setting up defaults, established by the choice of graphics model applied, with WebSite X5 Evolution you have complete control of the aspect of the various elements making up your website’s interface. You can personalise the text style, the hypertextual links, the navigation menu and the scrollbar. Moreover, you can make use of the practical internal editor to obtain 3D buttons with mouseover effects for the menu.

    Multimedia Objects:

    Photo gallery:

    It is fantastically easy to create an image gallery using your own photographs with WebSite X5 Evolution. Select the photos, choose between the more than 50 transition effects to apply, define the graphic aspects and it’s in the bag: you will have a Slide Show that all your friends, relations and colleagues can enjoy to the full. If you want to create a photograph catalogue, you can use the image Browser: import the photos, choose the model and frame for the slides and WebSite X5 Evolution will automatically create miniatures and links to the enlarged images. Slide Show and Browser images are excellent tools, not just for the creation of amateur albums but also for the presentation of work and/or products, particularly if you want to see these on the website.

    Videos, Audio & Flash Animation:

    Do you want to insert a video or enable listening to a piece of music? WebSite X5 Evolution poses no limits to the importing of multimedia files and supports all the main formats. WebSite X5 Evolution also allows you to import Flash Animations to make your web pages even more exciting. 

    HTML Codes:

    With WebSite X5 Evolution you can create your website without ever having to write even one line of code but, it you have particular requirements or want to achieve specific results, you can use HTML Code Icon. Thanks to the internal editor and predefined options, inserting news tickers, a site hit counter or any kind of JavaScript becomes something that anyone can do. Furthermore, there is also the availability of a Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) to link to the HTML code inserted and to easily import the resource files that may be linked to it.

    Advanced features:

    Conformity with XHTML and CSS standards:

    In accordance with currently adopted international standards, WebSite X5 Evolution generates XHTML I.0 Strict web pages and manages the presentation of their content by means of external Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). XHTML language, introduced in 2000 as an evolution of HTML, has the advantage of being widely supported. Consequently, web pages created by WebSite X5 Evolution can be used correctly independently of the Browser used (Microsoft Explorer, Firefox, etc..). WebSite X5 Evolution also generates and automatically links specific Cascading Style Sheets for: visualising in high contrast (yellow text on black background), visualising mobile controls, printing.

    Web-Mobile:

    Changing the Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) for each web page is like a person changing clothes – the content remains the same but it is presented in a different way. For each of the pages on your website, WebSite X5 Evolution predisposes and automatically links specific CSS for visualisation on-screen, printing, high contrast versions and visualisation from palm-helds, mobile and smartphones. Despite the problems to be overcome, it can easily be predicted that there will be an ever increasing presence of Internet on our mobile phones. With WebSite X5 Evolution you can ensure that your website is ready for the future.

    Search engines:

    Being able to be found is just as important as being on the Web. For this reason, you website must be liked by the search engines. Your site created with WebSite X5 Evolution can be accurately indexed by search engines because it is accordance with international (XHTML and CSS) standards. Furthermore, you can define important parameters such as the title, description and key words, not only of the overall website but also of each single page that it comprises.

    Making up pages with Drag&Drop:

    A grid that can be filled with content – this is the simple metaphor proposed by WebSite X5 Evolution for the creation of pages on the site.

You can use text fields, lists, single or multiple choice replies; provide for checks on the correctness of information inserted (for example, check that the @ sign appears in an e-mail address); make some answers obligatory and insert conditions for the safeguarding of privacy. It is also sufficient just to activate a particular option to ensure that the website user receives a feed-back email.

    RSS Feed:

    One of a quality Website’s characteristics is its continuous updating and, with WebSite X5 Evolution, you can offer information and news that is always new and up to date thanks to Feed RSS.

    Reserved area:

    If there are pages on your site that you want to make available only to some of your users, with WebSite X5 Evolution you can protect their access by means of a login and password request that you can create and release by yourself. In this way, if you provide subscription services or want to supply price lists and ad hoc documents, you can easily create more than one secure area and manage them without problems.

    Multi-languages sites:

    Your website is a window on the world, an irreplaceable communication channel for people of all nationalities. If your objective is that of creating a dialogue with the largest possible audience, WebSite X5 Evolution provides you with the opportunity to create a site that can be consulted in a number of languages. You need only take care of the translation of the texts: recreating the pages and putting in place the links for the choice of language will be much more simple and quick than you could ever have hoped.

    Automatic creation of menus:

    WebSite X5 Evolution automatically creates navigation menus that will be updated whenever a new subject or page is added, deleted or modified during the definition of the site map. It is also possible to specify which pages should be inserted in the menu and have a visualisation of the menu at the bottom of each page. Furthermore, WebSite X5 Evolution offers a wide choice of personalised menu graphics and includes an internal editor for the creation of 3D buttons with a mouseover effect. Finally, all you have to do is tick off a single option to have the navigation menu running with the page content and always visible.

    Upload and update

    Export on the Internet:

    Once you have created your website, all that remains is going live. WebSite X5 Evolution follows you even in this phase of the process, making available an FTP engine by means of which you can transfer all the files required for making your site immediately visible on the Web onto your Provider’s server.

    Constantly updated websites:

    A website must be regularly updated in order to continue providing an up to the minute illustration of the reality it wants to represent. With WebSite X5 Evolution you have total control over your site: you create it, update it and publish whenever you feel it is necessary. Moreover, with regard to updating, WebSite X5 Evolution permits you to publish only files that have been modified, saving precious time.

    Grouping the project:
