What
exact problems arise when putting sites on servers
other than iDisc?

if optimising
directly in IWeb is limited, it would be possible to
easily do in the built in html editor in my web
(adding alt and title tags for instance) is that a
fair presumption.
I am curious about iMac as host for the site, does
the domain name have to include mac.com ? Or can it
work with my own domain name on .mac?
Yes, after you have published stuff, you can add whatever html you want to your pages. The drawback is that if you then use iWeb to edit pages and republish, any custom html >you added will be erased
Apple doesn't sell or host other domain names. What you would do is >simply forward a domain name you had purchased somewhere to your >.Mac url. The forwarding is handled by the place where you have your >domain name.
But adding pages is an issue. Please confirm
that if an extra page was built in iWeb, and
uploading with fetch that that would not change
anything on previously uploaded and custom edited
pages.
BTW I had heard that uploading to non .Mac servers
was a 'hassle' As an example Amber on Call For Help
TV said so. By hassle however they really meant as
per normal ftp (which I have never thought of as a
hassle) I had imagined odd code or script etc that
would not easily translate to a non-mac server. Seems
that is wrong.
would you,
considering its cost $150AUD (for family pack to get
it onto 3 computers) etc consider iWeb a good
investment for someone doing a fair bit of web work
as described (yesterday went live with this site,
took me 6 days to develop.

Say I registered 'FastSites.com' Would that on .mac
become .Mac.FastSites.com or other variation, or does
the '.Mac' dissappear from the name entirely?
With forwarding, someone would type "fastsites.com"
into their browser and they would be taken to
whatever site is at web.mac.com/username.
So it is just standard domain forwarding, which
works, sort of, but people still get to see an
unfortunately not so easy to remember URL when they
arrive at the site.
BTW are there any other sites on the web with useful
iWeb users information?
Often you can add "masking" to "forwarding," which
means people just see your personal url.
