Well I find that knowing the codes whether is HTML, XHTML, PHP, or etc. and making a website out of scratch and just by code is a very good way, especially if you take the time to make sure its valid. However that takes tons of time, or at least for me it does. Thats why personally i prefer using a CMS (Content Management System). For the 2005 season i used PHP-Nuke and found it a lot easier in many ways, and a lot less time consuming. However PHP-Nuke is not the way to go if using a CMS. The code is all invalid and its very insecure and has a lot of other problems. So for the 2006 Season i found Mambo and it is very awesome. The code is all valid, and Mambo is very secure. It also has plenty of addons to suite your needs. But even with a CMS i still frequently find myself making my own modifications to the code. For those modifications i use Dreamweaver. Best thing of all is there is nothing in the rules saying you cannot use a CMS. So thats just the way i do things, and i just thought i would throw it out there.
