Now that we have built a number of websites off of our new platform, we have decided to hunker down for another month of coding (That is -- Tim is going to hunker down - I am going to continue to sell).

The changes are not what I would call dramatic but more utilitarian by nature. And all of the changes are built around the concept of providing our clients with very simple tools to help add, update and remove content from their websites.

One major milestone will be in a media management system which will allow website owners to upload and manage video, audio and photos. We are also creating a grouping system which opens up many doors for collaboration and sharing as well as an ordering system to enable the ordering and re-ordering of menu items and media clips.

One area we are most excited about is to extend the page categories past services, products, events or locations. We are creating a tool to create a customized page category and assign an unlimited amount of pages to the category. We will also start to create more page templates to include testimonials, faqs, resumes, etc. The significance here is the fact that Quired website owners will have the ability to create unlimited pages for the $599 setup fee.

We want to focus this update on our potential and current clients. We want to make owning a website a part of their business model. Not a nuisance. We want to encourage business owners to update their content, add fresh articles and delete old information to keep their customers current and the search engines fed with up to date and relevant content.

We couldn't be happier with the progress we have experienced over the last month but now is not the time to rest. Now is the time to continue to innovate and to listen to our clients for feedback on how we can improve the Quired experience.
