Iweb experience

my experience on the Iweb program was very short and I would like to practice more in order to understand it more.
From what I done while i was on I web i know that you can upload pictures and videos to the web page, while I was doing it i uploaded a picture that represented British films. It was apparent that you could also podcast on the Iweb.
Hopefully when I have created a website by using the Iweb people will be able to visit it from a search engine such as google.

These trailers are all popular British film.

I couldn’t find professional websites for the other films, this may be due to the films being quite a few years old or they may not have had the funding to have a website specifically for the trailer. However many trailers are now available to view on 'Youtube.com' (which is where i viewed the other two trailers i found.
