For me, quite simply, I want to be able to open the website with FTP, download a file into a text editor, edit it for SEO and then upload it again. I understand logic and syntax as well as the next guy but whenever I try that with a .net driven website something goes wrong.

I don't much care why the sites are so hard to update using a text editor. At present potential clients using .net are advised to rebuild in LAMP or look elsewhere. It's not worth my effort tooling up with Microsoft IDEs which don't even support my operating system just to adjust a site.
