Website Builder Comparison Chart: Dreamweaver, GoDaddy, Yahoo, Wix, Weebly, Webs...vs Ultimate WB

Quick Points:
Dreamweaver - You better know website coding!
GoDaddy Website Builder GoCentral / Yahoo SiteBuilder - Not enough features - hey, it's free, they're selling web hosting, not software!
Wix - Only free if you don't want your own domain name and like to have their ads on your website, and you pay A LOT for more. Also not enough features.
Weebly - Takes 50% of your Google adsense profits! Again, not enough features.
VistaPrint SiteBuilder - Expensive, without the features.
Webs - Only free if you don't want your own domain name, limited features and design.
uCoz - Only free if you don't want your own domain name and it comes with ads, limited features and design.
Moonfruit - Only free if you don't want your own domain name, limited features and design.
Yola - Only free if you don't want your own domain name, limited features and design.
Google Sites - Very basic website that integrates with Google tools - more for informative websites, just to get the info out there
XSitePro - Offline software for PC (discontinued)
