i use a program referenced in the blog below, that runs off of the WordPress platform. This allows me to have visual layout fames automatically laid out for me when I Install new themes. I find this honestly to be the quickest way to design a website. In addition, if you are creating the website for a client, it allows you to open your client base. Why? Because the client can automatically go in, and make updates to the text on the website. If he wants to make changes to the entire design layout of the website, all one must do is browse at different theme layouts. Potentially, if web design is something an individual does as a living, he could offer as a lowered price of the ability to install that new theme for the client. This is virtually hands off web design for the clients, where all you need to worry about is the content. From my experience most clients appreciate this. Check out the website below, for more information and tips like this.
