Website
Animated Title Builder
The tools at pageBuzz.com
website builder are to say the least unique, you won't find them
at our competitors because we created them to make building
website easy and fun. The animated titlespace tool is another
great way to add animation to your website just by uploading
multiple images.
Most of the pageBuzz hosted
websites have a space at the top of each page called the
titlespace.
This is a banner usually the
full width of the page which can be modified using any of the
online tools such as the deluxe
titlespace editor or done offline
and uploaded. This allows anyone to modify existing templates
with their business name, address, logo or other content that
identifies their business and makes the design unique.
We have take this process even
further by allowing anyone to upload up to 4 different titlespace
images and have them rotate in a sequence. This gives the site a
professional feel by creating animation and transitions right at
the top of the page.
The images can also be
assigned links that can link to pages or items. So the website
that needs to show a sale item can create images or messages that
link directly to the item or sale pages or promotions.
This is a commonly used tool
here at pageBuzz because it is simple and elevates the design to
a new level that is not seen on most other websites. The best
part is, these design levels are being reached by people that
have no clue how to build a website or how to edit HTML.
If you are a webmaster
or developer this tool makes your life easier and you are
able to implement complex designs and graphics such as this
sample website marksusedcar.com. The sample site integrates the animated
title into the Polaroid frame so just that image changes.
Imagine changing items, prices, messages such as in this
sample website design rickersauto.com.
How It Works:
Using 4 Separate
Images
The animated titlespace is not
flash but rather a javascript driven slideshow at the top of the
page. Just like other slideshows it uses regular jpg images and
rotates them either in a random order or in a set order set by
the user.
This allows some motion, some
type of dynamic content as opposed to static images.
By adding text, you can
display key messages and use images to invoke the right emotions
when trying to entice customers to use your products or services.
The slideshow allows for 4
different images which can be uploaded in one place. Of course
they should be the same size for the best results, but different
sizes can be used if necessary.
Activating and
Setting Time Interval
Once the images are uploaded,
to turn the feature on, it is just one check box. You can turn
the animated feature on and off by checking one box on the
settings page. Turning the animated title off will change the
page back to the original static image and bypass the 4 slides in
the animation.
Next, you will need to set the
time needed to wait between slides. Simple decide how many
seconds you need to adequately show each slide.
Linking Slides to
Pages
Of course, since each slide
might feature a different product or service, we give you a way
to link that slide t any page on your website. That allows
messages like "Buy now" or "Click here for special
price".
Editing Slides
Like all the other images on
your website you have full ability to edit the image in real time
using the image composite tool. This lets you add those text
message and graphics to the titlespace images.
The easiest way is to upload 1
image to all 4 slides.
Then each slide can be
modified using the drag and drop image composite tool and saved.
It is a very simple process
with some really cool effects. You can make it look like just the
text is changing or it is moving in the page.
The great thing is, it is
compatible with all mobile devices and tablets as well as regular
computer browsers.
It is a simple method but can
really elevate the look of an average website.
Other Slideshows
Of course you can add
slideshows to any part of your website using any of he slideshow
builders or by adding them to the html of the page from outside
coding.
But the titlespace tool is
great because it segregates all the elements for that one area of
the website rather than using inclusion codes or complex html.
Just upload the images and
turn it on.
That is the simplicity we
enjoy here at pageBuzz.com
Just One More Tool
This is just one more of the
great website building tools we offer for just $20 a month. You
won't find these tools at any other website host, sitebuilder or
other service no matter how much you spend. You might think it is
too good to be true but we have done it and it is here, the most
complete sitebuilder online.
It did not happen overnight.
The system took over 10 years to build, so what you see now is
not what users had in 2004 and wont be what they have 3, 5 or

We continue to add cool
features and new toys on a regular basis.
