It is simple and has an extensive list of keyboard > accelerators. A lot depends on how sophisticated your web pages need to be (do they use scripting, advanced css etc). For basic pages, I just love muse-mode. I've customized the headers/preamble etc and now have really simple muse pages which are automatically published when I make changes. Works really well for fairly striaght-forward pages and I can always generate PDF, PostScript, Bloxsome, texinfo, tex, latex etc from the same sources. Muse uses a simple, but quite powerful wiki like markup and has support for tables, footnotes, 
 tags etc.
