Most businesses find the task of establishing a web page both onerous and confusing. A typical Website Design project flow involves finding a graphic designer to establish a look and feel, a web programmer to transform the design into “web” language and populate the site with content, and finally, a webhost to publish the “finished” product to the world. Each phase of the project involves extensive communication between provider and client as intentions and desires are relayed, resulting in inevitable delays, misrepresented content and ultimately, frustration with the very thing that should be driving one’s business. The worst part of it all is that in this ever-evolving world, where up to date information means money, even the slightest change in online content requires re-initiation of the entire process.
Enter WebMonkeys. WebMonkeys puts control of the website back into the client’s hands without the need to undertake the arduous “back-end” tasks typically associated with getting a website up and running – it is literally as simply as 1-2-3:
- Establish a WebMonkeys account using a straight forward online form.
- Choose a design from a list of pre-defined templates.
- Add as much or as little content as desired with a simple and intuitive graphical user interface. What is seen on the editing
screen is what is published on the net within seconds with the click of a button. WebMonkeys takes care of all the difficult design, programming and hosting work which up until now has remained the domain of field professionals and offers it all to the client within minutes. Once established, customers can perform content changes in a matter of seconds by logging in to their WebMonkeys account wherever they have access to the internet. On top of the core website generation features, WebMonkeys features extensible built in modules such as Search Engine Optimization (SEO) to maximise the Google performance of the customer’s site, online store features to begin selling and managing products online and a customer relationship database for establishing mailing lists and history tracking - all accessible using the same easy-to-use administrative interface.
Whilst similar interactive “content management systems” have existed for some time now (Joomla and .NET Nuke being some of the more popular incarnations), they rely very heavily on the establishing party having considerable programming and systems knowledge for initial setup and are therefore all but inaccessible to individuals and small and medium business. Furthermore, these systems still place the onus of organising web hosting and a design on the client, resulting in nearly as much frustration as “traditional” web site establishment. WebMonkeys offers the first truly simple and integrated online website generation solution that is accessible to all denizens of the world wide web.
