Building Sites with Webvanta

Webvanta is a hosted service that enables you to quickly build database-based web sites without programming. There are three major components to the Webvanta system:

• A content management system (CMS) that enables you to create pages, and to completely control the appearance of all aspects of the site.
• A database system that automatically generates pages based on information entered by site editors.
• A community system that allows visitors to comment and optionally to register.

Building a Webvanta site is different from using conventional tools. You can avoid all coding if you stick with our templates, or you can entirely replace every aspect of the HTML and CSS to completely control the appearance. You can upload images, files, and other assets. Everything is done through the web-based control panel.

Benefits of Webvanta

Some of the benefits Webvanta offers your sites include:

• Easy content updating: You or your clients can log in and edit content on the site, right in place on the pages, without learning to use any administrative system.
• Organized content: The database makes it easy for you to structure content and add to it easily. Many people can contribute content, and it all stays organized.
• Automatic page creation: The database system automatically produces pages for every category, item, and more. Hundreds, or even many thousands, of pages are automatically created based on the content you enter.
• Separates content from design: When you put your information into a database, you separate the information from the presentation. This lets your content experts deal with the content, while designers control the presentation.
• Community: Visitors can add comments on every article and every item in your database, increasing their engagement with your site and providing you with user-generated content.
• Feeds: Visitors can subscribe to your RSS feed and get updates from your site automatically. You can easily create additional, custom RSS feed for portions of your content.
• Easy searching: Integrated site search lets visitors quickly search of all the database content on your site.

In addition, your site is hosted on a robust, load-balanced, multiple-server infrastructure. You gain a level of scalability and reliability that is far beyond the reach of most individual sites.
