July 26, 2008 – (HOSTSEARCH.COM) – Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) company Topline Ventures has made CM4all’s SiteCreator website creation tool available to hosting companies in North America, it was reported recently. According to the company, its solution offers a “powerful and sophisticated Web authoring and content-management tool that will allow small and medium sized hosting companies to offer the same website creation services as the largest companies, without overreaching their customers’ budgets”. The option, which can be branded to appear as a web host’s independent solution, will be launched at HostingCon 2008.
SiteCreator enables hosting company customers to build “even complex websites” independently using a WYSIWYG interface and “without needing any knowledge of web programming”. “SiteCreator is a very sophisticated Website creation tool that is widely used in North America and Europe,” explained Topline Ventures’ President, Robert Bray. “It provides users with a large number of professionally-designed Website templates, which are tightly controlled. That means that, although you can customize the template to a high degree, you can’t violate its design parameters by trying to combine incompatible colors and typefaces or other design elements that don’t fit. So, whatever you do, your Website will maintain a professional look and design.”
“This is a German engineered product that has been continually refined over the last seven years,” added Mr. Bray. “This commitment to quality has attracted many of the largest and most successful hosting companies and ISPs to become CM4all customers. These big brand companies insist on top quality products backed by a company they can trust for the long haul.”
Topline’s decision to add SiteCreator to its SaaS service means web hosts now have a cost-effective means of delivering a website builder service without the costs involved in purchasing individual software licenses. “This model gives small and medium providers easy, affordable access to the top software on the market today,” added Mr. Bray. “We can brand it to the hosting company, so it looks like their own product. That makes it an excellent way for hosting companies to differentiate themselves from competitors – by offering a more sophisticated, but still affordable, Website creation tool. It puts small and medium-sized hosting companies in the same league as the big guys.”
Built on CM4all Technology using AJAX software and SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol), SiteCreator has an extensive tool set that allows users to utilize Flash animations, RSS feeds, guest books, feedback forms, voting tools, ecommerce tools, automated search engine optimization, interactive maps, and designs. mobi websites.
