Have you had the chance to see LyX? It is easier to use than Writer, or even
Word. And the benefits of having a document with structural information is
that you can change styles (templates, class) and stay with a perfectly-fine
document. It's the difference between using Dreamweaver and coding with CSS.
Professional sites that are standards-compiliant (accessible among other
factors), as well as search engine-friendly, are simpler. And they are not
built in the form of reverse engineering -- from layout to code. LyX gives a
nice front end, so you never get your hands 'dirty' with code. Macro-based
editors like WinEdt achieve something similar. Have a look at lyx.org.
Best wishes,
Roy
