Hostopia Launches 1,000 Site Templates
[November 4, 2004]
World-class
designs appeal to every vertical
Ft.
Lauderdale, Florida, November 4, 2004 – In January
2005 Hostopia will introduce a gigantic online catalog
of 1,000 fully developed website templates, meticulously
crafted for dozens of industry verticals. Business end
users and professional web site designers will have
dozens of professional-looking web site designs for
every conceivable business type to speed their site
design, creation and publishing as well improve the
look, feel and quality of websites placed on the Internet
today.
“Web
site templates have become a mini-category in their
own right,” says Franc Nemanic, Hostopia’s
president. “The problem is that high-quality templates
come with significant cost, particularly for site designers
who have to acquire dozens if not hundreds of them.
Hostopia has bundled its templates into its managed
hosting making these tools affordably accessible to
any business or site designer. ”
Hostopia’s
templates were commissioned to a global network of award-winning
advertising agencies, creative houses and designers.
Thousands of draft designs were eliminated yielding
the highest quality finalists. Template sites were further
coded to exacting standards so any designer can use
them as is or edit them as required.
“We
are excited to be first company within the industry
to invest in and offer agency caliber web templates
bundled into our hosting plans,” says Nemanic.
“The majority of companies today simply do not
have the hundreds of thousands of dollars or resources
required to acquire a database of this magnitude and
develop the number of templates that we have.”
Each
template can be downloaded into any HTML-based editor
such as FrontPage and can support some of today’s
cutting edge technologies such as Macromedia’s
Flash and Dreamweaver products.
Brian
Singh, Hostopia’s senior product manager elaborates,
“Each template offers compelling graphics and
intuitive navigational structure. Actual site copy is
pre-written for each industry vertical relieving the
site designer of extensive copy writing. Every site
comes with a choice of colors that users can easily
carousel through for instant run of site previewing.
There simply isn’t a faster way to get a gorgeous
site designed for any business.”
The
templates will be available to all hosting service providers
among Hostopia’s network of over 270 partners.
Any web or email hosting service provider can now offer
this powerful value-added service that assists any business
in creating a professional Internet presence.
