Promotional Website Builder?

I offered to make a simple website for my dad’s law firm.  Can you recommend a good tool for non-technical people to make a basic promotional website?  My dad just wants a clean site with some basic information about him and his firm like contact info and his resume. I would use Tumblr, but I don’t think the blog format / design is best for this type of project.  Ideally, the tool would include an intuitive UI, attractive design templates, hosting, and an option for a custom domain name.

  15. vertigo25 answered: Not really clear on what you’re asking. I’m assuming you mean some kind of CMS. I think pmWiki is excellent for non technical folks.
  16. esquareda answered: It may be overkill for them now, but SquareSpace is the best UI I have ever seen for non-technicals to manage their own site.
