Web widgets.
With iWeb, it’s easy to add live content from other websites — like videos, stock tickers, and news headlines — directly into your web pages. So you can create pages that are informative, interesting, or just plain fun.
A world of possibilities.
A web widget is a snippet of live content on another website that you can add to your own blog or website. A growing number of sites offer embeddable web widgets. So if you see a YouTube video, stock ticker, weather report, or any other cool widget you want to add to your website, iWeb makes it easy.
Easy as cut and paste.
If you’ve ever cut and pasted text, you can add a web widget to your iWeb site. Just copy the widget from the web and paste it right onto your web page via the HTML Snippet window in iWeb. Then place it anywhere on your page, as you would any other canvas object.
iWeb Showcase
Live previews.
Once you paste a web widget into your web page, it’s instantly “live.” You’ll see it in action before you publish your site, so you’ll know exactly how it will look to your visitors.
Always up to date.
Once published, a web widget remains linked to its source, so it updates automatically. Your web pages stay up-to-the-second without any effort.
Google Maps and Google AdSense
iWeb makes it easy to incorporate some of Google’s most useful features. With just a few clicks, you can add a fully interactive Google Map to your site. Or you can place Google AdSense ads on your pages and get Google credits every time a visitor clicks.
Instant interactive maps.
Put a Google Map on your page with one click and enter the desired address. Then pan, zoom in or out, and set the map to street, satellite, or hybrid view — what you see in iWeb is exactly what will appear on your page. With integrated driving directions, your visitors will never have trouble finding you again.

Break into advertising.
It’s easy to place relevant Google AdSense ads on your site and earn credit when visitors click them. Just complete the simple Google registration process, choose from a variety of ad formats and colors to match your site, designate areas on your pages, and ads will magically appear. You’ll be earning credits immediately.
Perfect placement.
Google Maps and Google AdSense ads behave just like any other object on your canvas. You can move them around until they’re placed exactly where you want them. Your pages stay beautiful as they become more helpful. Or profitable.
My Album pages.
It’s so easy to create new photo and movie pages using iWeb that you’ll probably create quite a few. But don’t worry about your site’s navigation growing too cluttered as a result. My Albums will keep things perfectly organized and easy to find.
All together now.
A My Albums page lets you quickly and easily index all your photo and movie pages on one elegant page. Your visitors get an overview of all the media on your site without having to dig around.
Make it yours.
Your My Albums page is fully customizable. Adding and reordering albums is as easy as drag and drop. You can swap picture frames with a click and change rollover animations to get just the design you’re looking for.
