website builder: Building a Website Just Got Three Steps Easier - 12/07/12 12:38 AM
Sometimes “fast and easy” just isn’t fast and easy enough. That’s the conclusion we reached about the Site Wizard, which guides vFlyer Sites users through the process of creating a website. Whereas before it comprised four steps (five, if you include the final review of the information entered and the theme selected), the Site Wizard (shown below) is now a whopping one–yes, ONE–step. When you create a site now, you simply enter your site name, choose your business category, choose a theme, and BAM! You’ve built your website in under a minute.

Just as before, you can easily change the … (1 comments)

website builder: vFlyer Sites 2.0 is here. Faster, more powerful, and free. - 08/02/12 07:26 AM
After months of design and development (and many gallons of coffee), I'm pleased to announce the launch of vFlyer Sites 2.0, the first major upgrade to the website service we launched one year ago. With Sites 2.0, we completely rebuilt the service from the ground up. We redesigned the user interface, making it more efficient and intuitive; added new core functionality, including an undo/redo feature and advanced page templates; streamlined processes to improve load time and reduce latency; and notably, we introduced a free plan, Sites Personal, that allows users to publish a free website.

The new design includes … (0 comments)

website builder: Time to Upgrade That Old Website - 06/08/12 04:43 AM
Let’s be honest: a lot of the websites out there today are in dire need of a makeover. This isn’t the Wayback Machine I’m talking about — I mean actual, live websites, in 2012, that look like they haven’t been touched since Bill Clinton was president.
For many businesses that had the good sense to set up a website five, six, even ten years ago, they haven’t had the time or ability to maintain it since then, and consequently, the site looks woefully outdated now. And since having a website that looks great and provides up-to-date information is more important than … (2 comments)

website builder: vSites All-Star: Joann Welch - 02/28/12 11:48 PM
Success in real estate depends on many things, but perhaps none more than genuinely liking and caring about people. A real estate agent is entrusted with guiding people through one of the biggest transactions of their lives, so this personal quality is essential to doing the job well. No other real estate agent I’ve encountered conveys a genuine love of people more than Joann Welch, our vSites All-Star for February. In talking to Joann, you immediately sense her enthusiasm for what she does (or just enthusiasm, period). Others have taken notice too: Joann was featured last month on the Century 21 … (0 comments)

website builder: New vSites Themes! - 02/15/12 03:51 AM
When we launched vSites last summer, we included 120 different theme options with it, giving users a huge set of choices in the look of their website. I’m excited to announce that we introduced our first set of 14 new themes last week, bringing the total number of theme options to a whopping 134. The new themes, while having different color palates, textures, and site menu placement (not to mention splash images), all share a clean, streamlined look and feel that should appeal to many site creators.
One nice touch of all the new themes is the shadow effect below … (0 comments)

website builder: The Year That Was: 2011 vFlyer Recap - 12/30/11 04:50 AM

To say that 2011 was an eventful year would be an understatement. And while it’s tempting to try to sum up all the momentous changes and events in national and international politics, the economy, and technology, among other things, I’m sure there are plenty of others doing that just fine. So in this end-of-year recap I’ll stick to vFlyer, which also had an eventful, mostly fun, often hectic, and ultimately successful 2011.
The big event for us this past year was the launch of vSites, our website builder and hosting service, now all of four months old. In development for … (4 comments)

website builder: Announcing vSites, the new vFlyer website builder! - 08/19/11 03:04 AM
I’m thrilled to announce the launch of vSites, our new website builder! This is vFlyer’s second major service offering since we began in 2005 and has been in the works for close to two years. We’re so excited to introduce vSites to the world and help more people and companies market themselves online.
vSites began with a simple idea: most websites are dead. Many businesses haven’t had the time, money, or know-how to properly maintain theirs — assuming they have one in the first place — so their websites just sit, growing increasingly obsolete and less valuable. When websites are … (0 comments)
