Updating SiteBuilder

We value your feedback and work constantly to improve SiteBuilder and add the new features and tools most important to you. Keep an eye on your Yahoo! newsletters and in your control panel for announcements; we'll also alert you to any upgrades when you publish with SiteBuilder.

We recommend that you update your copy of SiteBuilder whenever we make a new version available so that you can take advantage of the enhancements we regularly provide. And don't worry about losing your work — we make sure each new version of SiteBuilder works seamlessly with the previous release.

To update your version of Yahoo! SiteBuilder, first make sure that you are connected to the Internet. From your computer's Start menu, choose Programs, then Yahoo!, then Yahoo! SiteBuilder; select Update Yahoo! SiteBuilder. Your version of SiteBuilder will update automatically.

Important note: If your version of SiteBuilder is older than version 2.2, you will need to upgrade by downloading a new version of SiteBuilder rather than using the standard update process outlined above. Downloading will simply copy the updates to your computer, replacing your old version of SiteBuilder while leaving all of your work and your web site intact. (Note that you will be able to use the standard update process for future upgrades, and that Yahoo! SiteBuilder remains a free tool. There is no charge for upgrading.)

Please upgrade now to ensure that you can continue to modify your site. Learn more.

To find out which version of SiteBuilder you're using, open SiteBuilder and look for the version number at the top of your SiteBuilder window. You can also check by clicking the Help menu, then selecting About Yahoo! SiteBuilder.

If you are not using version 2.2 or higher, upgrade now by following these steps:

  1. Visit our online download page by clicking or cutting and pasting the following link into your browser: http://sitebuilder.yahoo.com/.
  2. Sign in to Yahoo! using your Yahoo! ID and password.
  3. Click the Download Now — Free button.
  4. When the download is complete, open the downloaded file (ysitebulder.exe) on your computer to begin installing the update.

If you have any problems installing the latest version, please see our installation troubleshooting tips.
