Webassist™ leaked some upcoming news that will bring smiles to deadline-stressed Webmasters…and a sigh of relief.
WebAssist™ cut the confusing (too large) number of Development Suites that they offer in their product line from five down to three. This should settle some of the consternation Webmasters feel about which of their products is just right for their service business.
In addition, WebAssist™ announced the release of SiteAssist Professional. The expected launch date is August 26, 2008.
SiteAssist Pro should improve on what our testing showed was a basic need for the tandem WebAssist™ CSS programs.
This is needed to deal with the complexity of how CSS Sculptor and CSS Menu Writer work with style sheets. The challenge is for integrating these two CSS resources onto the same Web page.
SiteAssist Professional will allow creating the basic CSS design and the CSS menu system in Menu Writer. Then, SiteAssist Professional will import both, and create an entire site with CSS layout and CSS menus.
A welcome improvement that will be certain to be worth the price since savvy Webmasters know that CSS and Standards Compliant designs are the way to future-proof Websites.
WebAssist™ will also be running some Sales Specials & Contests during the last half of August 2008.
A reduced-price special for one Suite and two products starts on Thursday, August 14th until Friday August 22nd. The discounted products are:
- SiteScribe at $19.99: a $30 or 60% discount
- CSS Menu Writer at $79.99: a $20 or 20% discount
- SiteImport at $49.99: a $50 or 50% discount
The best way to get involved with WebAssist™ is to test their products during these special offers.
And, these specials are one of the toughest features of dealing with a company like WebAssist™. You can purchase a needed tool one week, then find that it is available for sale the following week for a substantial discount. Too bad these discounts are not retroactive.
Hopefully, Webmasters are able to pass on the higher cost to their Web design and Web management clients.
