We are extremely proud of our
drag and drop editor, not only because we built it and it no
other company has anything even close, but mostly because it is
just so fun and easy to use. Check out the demo video we have
created to show you how simple it can be to build and edit your
own website pages.
The traditional method of
editing websites is using HTML based WYSIWYG (What You See Is
What You Get) editors that make it easier to arrange elements of
a web page. But they require tables and have very limited
abilities as far as placement of elements.
Adding a picture using the old
editors requires you to create a table then set the sizes of cell,
set positions, padding and other elements to get the picture
located where you wanted it in the page. If you need something
else next to it, you have to completely change the design, change
the table to add a new cell, change all the elements because now
the picture has moved relative to the new cell...... OH MY GOSH!
Most people usually just give up at that point.
With
our Drag and Drop editor it is all very simple.
Just
drag the picture where you want it and save the page.
You can add text and drag that
where you want it. Add picture next to or overlapping other
pictures which is just not possible with traditional editors.
We needed a way for our
customers to compete with the the professional webmasters and
build pages that only took a few minutes instead of a few hours.
When we created he online Drag
& Drop Website Editor we nailed it!
The drag and drop editor is
amazing and once you use it and lean some of the tricks you will
never use anything else.
Our customers have been able
to build and maintain amazing websites with no experience and no
help. No expensive webmaster fees or waiting for a webmaster to
make changes.
Using Drag and Drop to build a
website is as easy as it gets.
Our Competitors
Some companies have tried to
duplicate our technology using systems like FLASH. Unfortunately
those flash websites are completely invisible to the search
engines. So while they are easy to build, nobody can find them
and they are mostly useless for anything serious like ecommerce
or business.
Others have created ready to
go websites with text that you can change. For example, you might
be able to add your company name, phone number or address but
nothing more.
Most of the online website
builders fall short and only allow certain things in certain
places. Some even limit the actual pages you can have, so if the
5 pages they named are not what you wanted, tough luck.
Our Direction With
Web page Building
Our focus has always been on
functional websites and less about getting the ultimate designs.
Who cares how great something looks if it does not work?
After all, the idea of
having a business is to make money. No real business owner
would give up making money to have a better looking website.
Or if they do, they probably wont be in business for very
long.
But with the pageBuzz
D&D(drag and drop) system you can have
both. Complex eye popping designs and very functional pages and
programs.
We feel we have mastered page
building for our customers. We have built around the people that
had no page building skills and didn't even understand how to use
their computer. We developed tools that even they would be able
to use.
You think building pages is
hard?
Think again. Because with the
pageBuzz system it is truly as easy as point and click.
The demo video above tries to
demonstrate how easy it is to build a web page. Using images you
provide, just clicking and adding them to the pages. Add some
text and you have an instant web page.
Learning From Our
Mistakes
What we have learned in the
last decade of developing website building tools is that no two
people are the same. Everyone has a different idea, a different
approach and different needs or expectations.
So the practice of building
one design that makes everyone happy is just impossible. While
our competitors try to build ready to go websites, we work with
each customer to create something unique that they like and fits
their personality.
Having flexible tools like the
drag and drop editor are critical to the process. Because
everyone wants something different. And the other web page
builders just don't allow that freedom.
Drag & Drop
Features
The "Deluxe Drag &
Drop" website editor has many features and while they are
not as advanced as software like Adobe Dream weaver it will
provide most of the elements our customers need in their web page.
Add Images
Add Text Areas
Add Video & Audio
Files
Change Background
Color
Add Borders &
Control Colors
Add Spacing Between
Borders & Elements
Change the layer
position, bring to front over elements
Delete Elements
Change Page Size
Control Border Styles,
dotted, dashed, solid
Control Border
Position bottom, top, left, right
While that may be a fraction of
the options professional webmasters use in Dream weaver, our
customers will never need to set classes or div id values. Our
customers will not need to customize css files and add javascript
elements to pages.
If they do, they can certainly
use program like Dreamweaver and upload the files rather than
using our editors online. So there is really never any limit on a
websites design.
The tools and features offered
by our basic drag and drop editor are more than enough to build
amazing pages. The process is simple and fast.
There are effects that more
advanced programs can achieve with complex coding and tools, but
many of those effects can be created using graphics editors or
our own online drag and drop image editor.
But splitting functions
between tools it makes it easier to understand and mange pages.
So while we could add elements
in the drag and drop page editor to add shadows to images, we
would rather have the users add the shadows to the image files
and insert them into the pages using a very simplified tool.
The entire process is about
making tools that are not only functional but understandable as
well.
Anyone that has no
experience and tries to use a program like Adobe Dreamweaver will
be lost, confused and quickly get upset. So while we could build
something that complex online, it does not make any sense why we
would.
Our solution is one that has
evolved over more than 10 years while working with customers
trying to understand their level of understanding and build tools
that they can use to quickly and easily manage pages online.
The end result is the drag and
drop editor you see today in our website management console.
For The Future
Evolution of Drag & Drop
We are already developing a
new "Super Deluxe Drag & Drop Webpage Editor" which
has more features and will accommodate more advanced users. We
are adding new ideas ad new concepts made possible by new
advances in browser standards.
As technology changes, so do
the tools we can offer at pageBuzz.com. As web browsers become
more functional we can up the game in website design both in the
tools and end product.
Unlike our competitors that
have survived with the same product over the life of their
business, ours changes regularly and evolves as technology
evolves.
We can promise you, that when
new ideas and abilities are available, we will add that
functionality to the tools here at pageBuzz.com while always
keeping in mind, our users don't want to learn how to use complex
new software when they go back to edit their pages.
