Tank: An Easy and Stylish Way to Create a Website

Tank is a hassle- free website creation tool with a blog like format. The service may not offer a lot of features but they sure make web creation seem effortless with an awesome design layout done in a minimalistic manner.

In order to start a website, all you need are a couple of pages, a few posts and some images. All you need to do is provide those elements and Tank will glue them all together for you. You can move pages around, hide them if you want to, and attach any type of file to them. Posts are attributed a time-stamp (which you can edit as well) and categorized according to your preference. You can create as many albums in a photo section as you please, then upload as many images to an album as you require. You can also easily change and manage the skin of your site without messing up your data.

Tank is for people who want to create simple, great-looking sites that work. The service comes with a free package for light users and premium packages for those requiring more bandwidth, disk space and domain mapping.

Create a Group Website using Google Sites

Google Sites is an online application which is part of Google Apps program that lets a user create a website in a snap. You do not need to have a domain to create a website from Google Sites. The general service is similar to blogger but with huge differences in practical application. Blogger is obviously specifically optimized for blogging while Google Sites is made for team or group website building. It targets organizations who want to create a website which can be managed and edited by a group of people. It’s like creating a wiki website for a company or an organization where every member can take part in the development and content distribution of the site.

The service is entirely free and each account is allowed a 100 MB (megabytes) of space for images and attachments. Using the service will let people gather information about their organization in the website. They can place videos, calendars, presentations and attachments. The website can be set to be viewed by the whole world or for members only. The owner can easily invite others to the website as co owners, collaborators or as viewers. You can check out the video demo below on how to use Google Sites.
