The laws vary from state tot state on how to properly set up a will. What might be legal in one state might be inadequate in another state. When you purchase "premade" wills, a change in the law might have some impact on the validity of the document.
I once purchased some software the creates wills just to test it out. It was put out by a major company and it had a major flaw that could have cost thousands of dollars to fix. I pointed out the error to the company and they issued and update.
The point is that you should really see a qualified attorney. You will spend more money, but you will receive personal attention and be a lot better off.

The contents of Wills are not generally the issue. Wills get challeneged because there is allegedly something wrong with the witnessing procedure. You can buy a premade Will, but whether or not you know what you're doing on execution is still a crapshoot.
Look, get real. If you don't have a large enough fortune to pay a lawyer 300 bucks to do it right, you don't have a large enough fortune to care what happens to it when you die.

I believe they need to be signed by witnesses and in front of a notary who also needs to apply his seal.
