Website builder

Why is it so expensive? How are they different from GoDaddy? Are they offering more? How are they different from Intuit? Which do you recommend,
Intuit or BusinessCatalyst or GoDaddy?

For a long time me and my friends have created our own movies. But now we want a website to host have them on. I already have a hosting service so dont recommend one! I just need some software that will allow me to build a website and add videos off of my home computer onto it.
I need software to build the website. Something like dreamweaver but for windows.

are there any online html editors (or website builders or anything) that are not tied to hosting?

example: is there ANY online way to edit a page on my site hosted on godaddy (except use of godaddy’s own lame system) ????

if the website builders and templates and all that stuff is ONLY a FEATURE of a hosting service, then why all the big promotion of the ‘website builders’ and ‘online html editors’ by independent parties?

with all the yelling about “online” this and that and “web 2.0″, is the situation truly that in order to edit my godaddy hosted sites i must either use their lame/lousy online tools or be tied to my own computer hard drive? There is NO OTHER online/web-based solution for editing html pages???? TIA for any clarification
what about online editing of files that i can access online directly in ftp space? I now can go to ftp space in browser, but have to edit even trivial html files offline. There isn’t even something as simple as Notepad online???? Or ANYTHING that i can use online for simple editing?
Not looking for free. If the online tool allows me to do simple edits, like adding links, when i away from my own computer, i will pay a lot. / Buying Dreamweaver for what i need (simple things like adding links to a page) would be like hiring the Dallas Cowboys to put away my groceries: It would be total overkill; it would cost lots and lots of time to learn how to get them to put the stuff where i want it; and i’d be totally tied to my desk. Investing in Dreamweaver would be like buying a luxury house-prison that can’t move one inch, when what i need is a way to do simple tasks away from my desk.
