    iWeb should work with Yosemite, but you would need the latest version which is iWeb 09 and some people have reported problems using iWeb and Yosemite.

     

    Remember that iWeb has not been sold or supported by Apple for at least the last 2 years, so now is not the time to start using iWeb when it is unsupported and has not been upgraded for years.

     

    If you are starting from scratch building a website, then don't use iWeb.  Consider all the alternatives such as EverWeb and all the others such as RapidWeaver, Sandvox, Freeway Pro/Express 7, WebAcappella 4, Flux V and Macaw.

     

    Take a look at all these and I am sure you will find something that suits your needs, but don't use iWeb to start a new website from scratch - it really is not worth it.

    Thank you for your help, my web is about 6 years old, I have tried to rebuild the same web and its content with several other web apps like the ones you mentioned, none let me do it as simply, effective and maintaining the same looking as iweb and also means a lot of work, so if iweb doesn't work i would have to cancel my page. this is my page http://www.vuelo502.es/Inicio.html, I appreciate your help thank you

    If your web site is 6 years old, then perhaps it is time that you re-built it.

     

    EverWeb is the easiest and the most like iWeb to get to grips with and really is just as simple to use as iWeb - it is designed with that in mind and it has all the things built in that we all wish iWeb had - such as SEO, drop down menus, PayPal integration and a contact form.

     

    Have a look and try it because you won't find anything easier and there will come a time when iWeb will stop working.

     

    Have a look at EverWeb again - there is nothing easier out there and it is just as simple to use as iWeb.
