2017 MacBook Pro, running High Sierra.
I have been postponing an update to Mojave because it will not support ... iWeb...Any suggestions for web building software that does not entail monthly subscription fees?
How about FREE?
If you liked iWeb, you'll love this program!
BlueGriffon (free)
BlueGriffon
BlueGriffon is an open source project. There are three versions, and the basic version is free. Unlike commercial software, the free version isn't a demo, it is a full featured product. The two commercial step up versions add very specialized features strictly for professionals, such as the ability to create EPUB's. You very likely don't need them.
All that you have to do is go to the BlueGriffon Web site and click on "Download" to get the entirely free product. Or you can download it directly from:
http://bluegriffon.org/freshmeat/3.0.1/bluegriffon-3.0.1.mac-x86_64.dmg

BlueGriffon's user manual is commercial (not free), but it's not necessary if you view the above tutorial.
Now, here's the best thing about BlueGriffon...it can do something that very few other WYSIWYG Web site creation programs can do...it can import existing Web sites in HTML format. Why is that important? Because if you have previously been using a program that is basically a page layout program with an HTML converter on top of it you can only export your existing Web site in either a proprietary format that nothing else can open, or you can export your Web site in HTML format. So, using BlueGriffon you can migrate from any other Web site creation program.
Even better, you can suck down the raw HTML from any existing site on the Web using something like SiteSucker, and use it as a template/starting point for your project. Basically this means that you have access to an unlimited number of free templates!
Some tips for using BlueGriffon:
1. When you first open it, the interface will look terrible. Don't get discouraged. Do this:
BlueGriffon menu --> Preferences --> General tab --> Theme -> enable "Light"
The interface will now look world's better!
2. The sidebar in the program isn't active by default. In the Panels menu choose Style Properties, and you should instantly get a sense of the value of the sidebar.
