So, I installed OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion today and I am happy to report that it seems to be running the same as it had in OS X 10.7 Lion. After I turned on dictation “located in your system preferences” I was pleasantly surprised that Dictation works in iWeb.
If you have more than 1 iWeb domain file you will need to use the iWeb Multi-domain tool. Here is the link:

Sorry, the dictation portion of the video is a little choppy. I need a new machine.

And if you haven’t got a 3rd party web host yet I would suggest IX Web hosting.
I have been using IX Web hosting for several years with little to no problems “usually the problem was something I did” and they have been quick to solve any issue I have come across. The have plans that start at $3.95 a mo (USD) and their customer service is top notch.

IX Web hosting is one of the top 10 hosting companies in us, in terms of size. According to third party estimates, they host over 494,000 domains. They own over 1% of US market share. They also have a sister company named Host Excellence, which offers packages similar to ix web hosting.
With plans starting from $3.95 per month, they offer excellent value for money. Available in both Linux and Windows hosting, IX Web Hosting is a good choice for hobby, entertainment sites and small business web sites.
IX Web Hosting Features Review
They provide nearly everything needed for a business website. They use H-Sphere control panel, which is good. H-Sphere is not as popular as cPanel but it is simple, easy to use and does almost everything needed for a normal website. Firewall Protection, Spam filtering, Website Templates etc. are standard with all packages. Also, they offer free domain names with all plans.
All the plans come with unlimited space and bandwidth. The major difference among them is the number of IP address provided. For multiple sites hosting, from SEO point of view it is good to have different IP addresses. So webmasters who want to host multiple sites may find “Business Plus” hosting very helpful.
All the 8 IP address will most probably be from different class “C” even though IX doesn’t guarantee it. Having 8 different class C IP’s is great news for webmasters who want to link their sites and transfer the PR. Most hosts who offer unlimited/large number of add-on domains, doesn’t provide different IP for each domains.
IX Web Hosting Coupon
They offer 10% discount on the billing amount amount if you go through a secret link before signing up.

IX Web Hosting Performance Review
IX Web hosting offers reasonably good performance. Their uptime as verified by our test account has been poor during August 2008 – October 2008. But it has been steadily improving from the second half of October 2008 and is looking really good these days.
We have been monitoring our site hosted with IX, using a third party service provider. Screen shot below shows the uptime details for the year 2008.
IX Web Hosting Price Value
IX Web hosting is definitely cheap, with offers starting from $3.95. They also allow multiple domains in same account. This is pretty useful for webmaster with many sites.
IX Web Hosting Support Review
IX Web offer toll free(US only) 24/7 support lines, support chat and support tickets. Toll free lines could have waiting time of up to 30 mts., which is not really that bad. They do reply to support tickets in time as well. Even though the support is fast, there has been reports that the support technicians are sometimes not very competitive. Probably this is not the case always, but there are reports of support tickets not giving the exact information requested. We must add, these kind of things happens for almost every host and sometimes only the bad things get reported.
Video Testimonials:
You will want to get a 3rd party host like IX Webhosting before June 30, 2012 when MobileMe would be permanently discontinued

Summary
This article explains how to move an iWeb site, including one with a personal domain, from MobileMe to another web hosting service.
Notes:
- You need an account with a web hosting provider that supports FTP (File Transfer Protocol) before proceeding.
- When publishing an iWeb site to a web hosting service other than MobileMe, the following features are not available: blog and photo comments, website password, blog search, and hit counter.
Move an iWeb site that is currently published to MobileMe
If you have iWeb ’09 (version 3.0) or later, follow these steps from the Mac on which you published your web site. To check which version of iWeb you have choose iWeb > About iWeb.
- Open iWeb ’09 and click the name of the site you want to publish in the left sidebar. The Site Publishing Settings window appears.
- In the Site Publishing Settings window, choose FTP Server from the Publish to drop-down menu.
- Enter the following information:
- Site name (optional).
- Contact email (optional).
- FTP server address (provided by your web hosting service).
- User name for publishing to your web hosting service.
- Password.
- Directory and path (if required by your web hosting service).
- Protocol and port (if required by your web hosting service).
- Click the Test Connection button to make sure you have entered your information correctly.
- Enter the URL for your website.
- Click the Publish Site button.
For a video overview of publishing your site to an FTP server, please watch this iWeb tutorial.
If you have an earlier version of iWeb, select the “Publish to Folder” option to publish your site to a local folder and then upload it to a third-party hosting service.
- Open iWeb and choose File > Publish to Folder. By default, iWeb saves the published results to a Sites folder in your Mac Home folder.
- Once your site is saved to the folder, you can upload it to the FTP server with an FTP publishing application.
If you no longer have a copy of your site in iWeb, you can download the data directly from your MobileMe iDisk and then upload it to a third-party hosting service.
- From the Finder menu, choose File > New Finder Window.
- Under Devices on the left, click the iDisk icon and then choose Web > Sites.
- In the Sites folder, locate the “index.html” file and the folders named after your existing iWeb-published site.
- Move the “index.html” file and folders to your desktop and upload them to your FTP server.
Move a personal domain from MobileMe to another web hosting service
- Open a browser window and go to your web hosting service’s site.
- Follow the site’s instructions for configuring your personal domain. Note the CNAME (Canonical Name) record required by your provider.
- Go to your personal domain registrar’s site and find the CNAME configuration section.
- Change the CNAME from web.me.com to your web hosting service’s address (this change may take some time to process).
- Sign in to me.com/account.
- On the Account page, click Personal Domain on the left.
- Click the Remove Domain button on the right to remove your configured personal domain from MobileMe.
Here is an answer to a recent question I received.
Just want to let you know I really like your site and what you have done with the WowSlider. I found you through the Apple forum and I’ve checked out some of your other work- very creative!!
I’m wondering if you might be able to point me in the right direction for how to use iWeb (’09 version) with wow slider. I still publish to Mobile Me which will change obviously in June – but for now, I would love add it to my site but I can’t get it to work. I have tried following the instructions from wow slider but I get tripped up when it comes to publishing – since I use mobile I’m not sure how to get it to work. I tried putting it in my disc folders per some of the suggestions I’ve seen on the Apple forums and in some articles – but so far no luck in getting it to work (I feel like an idiot cause I can’t figure it out!!). Since I really like how it looks on your site, I figure I’d come right to the source and ask how you did it!!
I appreciate your time and would welcome any ideas at your convenience. Thanks for the inspiration and I wish you the best in your next endeavor— which I look forward to seeing – whatever that may be!
In my case I uploaded a folder called “slideshow” to my server resulting in a page like this ” http://jeffnitschke.com/slideshow/ ” then I used the view source menu 
to see the html code & then selected all the text “command A on the keyboard”, copied, & pasted the code into a new text edit document “just because it is easier to read & edit then in the little snippet window in iWeb” then anywhere you have a href=” or src=” 
you will need to add your mobileme info something like this ” <link rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” http://web.me.com/MMeUsername/slideshow/engine1/style.css” media=”screen” />”
Hope this helps you out. For web hosting I use IX Webhosting they offer lots of 1 click installs like this wordpress blog and have excellent customer service. Their “expert plan” starts at just $3.95 a month and allows for unlimited domains & email address and also comes with 2 dedicated IP address’s. All plans also have unlimited disk space, data transfer, & bandwidth.
hope this helps

How to Publish Your iWeb Web Site
2012
posted by Jeff Nitschke on iWeb, Web hosting
No comments
After you finish with a new iWeb site, you can publish your site by using third party Web host (I use IX WebHosting plans start at $3.95 a mo).
You specify where your iWeb site will be published from the Site Properties screen. Click the site name in the Site Organizer to display the Publish To pop-up menu. iWeb offers the following publishing options:
After you’ve set the type of publishing the site will use, it’s time to take care of business! Click the site to select it in the Site Organizer and then click the Publish Site button on the toolbar. The application takes care of everything else, automatically uploading all pages and media (if you chose the FTP publishing) or saving them on your hard drive (if you chose the Local Folder option).
In a hurry? You can elect to publish just the changes necessary to update your site: Instead of clicking the Publish Site button on the toolbar, click the File menu and choose Publish Site Changes.
