templates for website builders

What you think about templates for website builders like www.site2you.com ?
Is that not dangerous to use a template?
I mean what searchengines think about that?

I have found that templates can be helpful if you want just what the maker has to offer. However, if you want more or want to change the source of the website then somethings can go horribly wrong. Also, not all templates meet today's WC3 standards.

I have found that it is easier to borrow some ideas for templates but to ultimately write your own site. That way you know exactly what is going into it.

As for your question about is it dangerous in my trials no it isn't. The search engine part I am not sure what you mean. I know that google uses the meta data that you list to help find websites when you search for it but other than that I am not sure what you mean.

Cheers!
