Hi, I need a build a quick "coming soon" splash page for a friend. Id like to make it a responsive page . Does anyone know of any free website builder that can do this? Thanks in advance.

Adobe has a trial for Muse, the latest update builds responsive pages very easy. While I agree with Red Squirrel, making a responsive page by hand in Notepad or something will take a long time if you don't know HTML/CSS code well. A simple coming soon page is easy, a responsive version? I don't even know if I could do that by hand coding.

Obviously Wordpress might seem like total overkill if you only need a single "coming soon" page - but ultimately you'd be able to make this a lot quicker with Wordpress than with anything else.

If you have CPanel and similar hosting you can install Wordpress usually right from there, log-in to your new WP install, get such a plugin, activate...and DONE.

Probably in the time that requires someone else to start-up their HTML editor :) So yes, Wordpress all-the-way.

** Depending on the "theme" for Wordpress, don't know whether the "coming soon" plugin(s) are already responsive - but then simply install a responsive theme. Also a matter of 20 seconds. Wordpress IMHO is the best choice, no matter how simple or complex.

** Edit yes I forgot about Wordpress.COM <--- so even more simple!
(Wordpress.org is if you want to self-host on your domain, eg. by manual installing WP or from Cpanel, most modern hosters should have an option that you install it from the panel)

Wordpress. :eek::D You guys are overcomplicating this lol.

Here just put this in a file called index.htm:

Code:
<html><head><title>[site name] - Coming soon!</title></head><body>
<h1>[site name] - coming soon!</h1><br>
<center><img src="somelogoimageorsomething.jpg"><center>
</body></html>

I always forget what the first line on top is suppose to be to tell the browser not to use quirks mode but for a simple temporary page I usually don't bother.
