iWeb Enhancer is an Apple application extension which facilitates the management of multiple domains and RSS feeds in iWeb.
The best part of iWeb Buddy is that it fits seamlessly into your existing workflow. For instance, if you're publishing your site to .Mac, you simply hit publish in iWeb, wait for the process to finish, and then open iWeb Buddy. From there, you can select the site(s) you published and process them using the menu or toolbar. If you've only made changes to a few pages, you can choose to process only those pages to speed things up.
If you host your website on your own server, you'll need to follow a slightly more complicated publishing workflow. However, with iWeb Buddy, it's still easy to update your site. Once iWeb has created all the files in your home directory, you'll need to use iWeb Buddy to process the entire domain. This ensures that all files have been updated, not just the ones you changed. Then, you can simply copy the updated files to your server.
iWeb Buddy also offers some key features that iWeb doesn't include. For example, you can have as many "Domain" files as you want, giving you complete organizational freedom. You can also configure your Domains to use Google Analytics and/or Mint for web statistics tracking. Alternatively, you can set up custom scripting for tracking purposes.
iWeb Buddy even makes it easy to add and customize RSS feeds. Instead of only having RSS feed links on the top page of each blog, iWeb Buddy adds them to every entry, making it easier for readers to subscribe. Additionally, iWeb Buddy can redirect the links to your preferred tracking site, allowing you to follow all of the traffic your blog or podcast generates.
Finally, iWeb Buddy makes social bookmarking a breeze. By selecting your desired Social Bookmarking site in the blog preferences, iWeb Buddy adds links to each blog entry. This allows readers to easily and quickly share your content on platforms like Digg, Google, and del.icio.us.
Overall, iWeb Buddy is an invaluable add-on for anyone who wants to get the most out of their iWeb site. With its powerful features and intuitive workflow, it's a must-have for anyone serious about web development.
