Our "TopTenREVIEWS Bronze Award Winner" is Web Studio 4 by Back To The Beach Software, LLC. This website creation software is designed for the novice. If all you want to do is drag-and-drop a few objects on the screen and arrange the page, you’ll find all the tools you need in Web Studio 4.
Web Studio 4’s graphic imaging tools aren’t as solid as those of Web Easy Professional, our #1-ranked website creation software program.
Ease of Use: 
Web Studio 4 is simple to use. All you do is select from a variety of galleries located at the bottom of the control panel, then drag and drop items anywhere on your webpage. You can view gallery selections as large images or thumbnails.
Any time you create a website for everyone to see and use, you want to make sure you don’t have spelling errors. Web Studio 4 includes a spell checker and a variety of other features to help you create and maintain professional-looking websites. Web Studio 4 also has the ability to add images from a file and directly from a scan.
Unlike some other website creation software, creating mouse rollover buttons in Web Studio 4 is simple: select the rollover button studio, type in the text for the button, slide a bar to change the "mouse-over" and "mouse-down" buttons and then press OK. You can also change the text font, appearance, color or even add animation while creating the rollover button.
Web Studio 4 offers some professional-looking templates and more by download. Despite this, we feel that Web Studio 4 could use more templates in broader categories.
Web Studio 4 includes some nice features for enhancing and adding effects to pictures and graphics, but the software lacks the ability to crop an image.
One graphic imaging tool that Web Studio 4 includes is the ability to create thumbnail images. When you’re working with images on a website, you usually want images small enough that your website won’t take forever to load and so you can preview several easily. Thumbnails are scaled-down versions of images that load quicker and allow the user to preview the image.
It’s not very often when you can find a software program that makes getting help and support simple; Back To The Beach Software, LLC’s Web Studio 4 does just that. The help option on the Web Studio 4 toolbar provides access to documentation, online tutorials, forums, newsletters, support and a number of other options.
While we were pleased with most of the program, we were disappointed that Web Studio 4 does not allow you to create your own objects; Web Studio 4 is designed to do most everything for you. This is ideal for someone who wants to create websites quickly, but the convenience limits the creativity power of the software.
If Web Studio 4 included tools for creating objects, included more webpage templates and additional graphics tools, the program would have been an ideal contender for the two top-ranked positions on our site. If you want these abilities in your website creation software, check out Web Easy Professional or Web Plus.
