ShareMaestro. Investment Software (Stocks & Shares)

“Many thanks for a great job on the ShareMaestro web site and the rapid turnaround. Your support has been fantastic throughout this project.”

- Glenn Martin (ShareMaestro) – Oct 2009

We just completed ! Digital Idiom have designed the new web site for ShareMaestro [ creators of  the UK's Premier Investment Software ]. The vendors of ShareMaestro needed a new professional look and more impact to engage the potential buyer of their investment software. It also needed to have a system for the vendors to update the site on a regular basis with Stock data, screen demos and investment news. We elected Adobe Contribute for it’s versatile but familiar Word Processing style tool set.

After the initial web design, template layout and a series of Contribute Tutorials, the owner’s of ShareMaestro where able to create all the web pages themselves.

Because Dreamweaver is so flexible and adaptable many new ‘add-ons’ or extensions are available to Dreamweaver Owners.

These ‘add-ons’ include pre-made web templates and design / coding extensions that get a repetitive task done a lot quicker such as CSS Menu Building or Shopping Carts.

We will soon be launching a new Dreamweaver based web site for free or value Dreamweaver Templates and Dreamweaver  Extensions. So watch this space for more news !

The web design and development community may want to know that there is a NEW WEB SITE under construction that promotes both Dreamweaver Web Templates and Dreamweaver Extensions

… some of them are FREEEEEEEEEEEE !!! Yippee !
