No, you can't buy
pageBuzz software for your Godaddy Website
We get inquiries constantly
for our programs and how can people buy them for their Godaddy or
Web.com website. They ask what programs did we use, where can
they buy it, how much does it cost.
I guess on one hand it
is great that people like what we have, but they think they can
buy it for a few dollars which is a little insulting.
All of the programs on
pageBuzz are proprietary, that means we wrote
them, we own them and in most cases have trademarks or copyrights
to protect them.
Programs like our award winning shopping cart have taken over a decade of development and
represent countless thousands of hours of programming. So you can
be pretty sure that we are not going to just hand over the code
any more than ebay will package up their website programming in a
CD for you to buy for $29.95.
I guess when people look at
ebay they realize that it is a huge company and the programming
cost them millions. But when they look at us, a small home based
company, they think the programming is not as valuable.
The fact is, our programming
is worth millions and has in fact cost millions to develop.
Just because we are small does
not mean our programming does not have value. It does not mean
that the 10 years plus we spent building the programs is not
something anyone else can do.
There seems to be a
huge disconnect between perceived value and technology.
When someone takes a pill
prescribed by their doctor they are enraged that a tiny little
pill would cost $20. It is barely 2 calories and does not even
fill you up.
What people don't see is that
the company spent nearly a billion dollars to get the one pill to
the market. Developing the formula, testing and running trials to
make sure it is safe.
When they see a program on
pageBuzz, they also don't see that it took a decade to create
these programs. That it took extensive hardware and testing and
years of user input to get the programs just right.
The reason we have what they
want, is because we did all of that and our competitors did not.
So we can charge $20 for the little pill or in our case $20 for
website hosting.
Of course for the person dying
of a rare illness that $20 pill is priceless for a cure.
And for our customers that $20
is also priceless for a solution that no other company can offer.
This is what make us better,
gives us an edge and give us a fighting chance against companies
like Godaddy who spend more than our annual advertising budget in
just one day.
Having something unique is the
way big companies are born from ideas. Cornering the market with
a better mousetrap.
That is what we have done here
at pageBuzz. We have made a better mousetrap. Better tools,
better programs and better hosting overall.
Of course we would never let
people download our software and take it over to Godaddy, because
then we would never have any customers.
It is actually our
small size that has made us better.
We have had just enough
customers to get the feedback we needed without changes in the
system being too disruptive.
If we were the size of Godaddy,
it would be hard to make changes and tweak our systems to be
better and better. Too many people, too many servers too much
trouble.
But our smaller size has
actually allowed us to excel in software design spending
countless hours each week upgrading and building new features and
improving existing programs.
And now here we are with one
of the most desirable products online.
People calling us
daily asking where they can buy our software.
We tell them,
"you can't buy it, but you can use it for $20 a month
right here on pageBuzz.com".
The tell us,
"but I already have a website on Godaddy that is paid
for, why would I move to you?"
That should be
obvious, "because we have what you need, what you want".
All of the years of hard work
and the millions we spent on programming have in fact paid off.
We now have something that nobody can get at Godaddy, Web.com or
1and1.com, that have to come to pageBuzz.com to use it.
That has made our small
company a contender in a bigger market.
And while other companies with
Content Management Systems and Sitebuilders downplay what we have,
they have developers calling us, asking us how we did it, what we
used and studying our system.
Other companies know just how
dangerous our product is to them, it is a real threat if their
users realize how much easier it is to have websites on pageBuzz
than what they have now.
We have had our share of
buyout offers, but we like what we do, enjoy the people and
developing great products. I am not ready to retire and my
customers have no interest in being shuffled to a larger company
where they lose all the personal help.
We have built a nice little
niche for ourselves, just the right balance of size and
technology.
But just because we choose to
remain small does not mean our product is not one of the most
powerful and useful website builders online. The facts are the
facts and pageBuzz is preferred by 99% of the people that have
used our competitors products and then tried ours.
If you want to use our
software, our tools, you have to host your website with us. As
disappointing as that may be to some people, that is how it works
and for now, that is the only option we allow.
