[Closed] Easiest website builder?

I need to make a simple website for a club. Just an overview page, then details of each location and an area for members to download forms etc.

I tried squarespace, but found the frame approach really restrictive - I'm just not savvy enough to get my head round it.

Any recommendations for someone totally inept?

If you're using a website builder then it's going to be restrictive by definition. The usual suspects are wix and wordpress although a friend of mine made quite a nice looking site with smugmug.

Perhaps I'm looking for something that's not there! Drag and drop - like I'm using PowerPoint or something - would be good! I'll look at wix....

I made a few sites with Serif WebPlus when I first started. For a basic site I'd definitely recommend it as it's really intuitive and there's a great support forum.

I progressed to using Wordpress due to WebPlus not handling responsive if I remember correctly. But I definitely miss the simple drag 'n drop approach. Wordpress is great but I definitely think it's a steep learning curve for a beginner. So many options, stuff to consider etc.

I've been experimenting with Adobe Muse a little recently. Looks promising.
