Most people new to the world of CMS websites cannot imagine how they could ever manage their site themselves. So, see our DotNetNuke demo movie which shows how you can update your website and publish it - all in just 1 minute!
Why should you opt for CMS?

Many companies find it difficult to keep their web site content as up to date as they would like. Often there are delays getting new content online, the site stagnates and your clients get to see outdated information. That’s why so many companies are turning to CMS. Meet Vanessa and Bertha for an enlightening example.

A CMS web presence allows you to manage your web site even if you have no technical knowledge, experience with HTML or web site design. It also reduces the calls to your web design agency or IT department for changes to the web site. CMS reduces the time required to publish, allowing you to get your content on-line faster. This is a very important issue for any professional web site.

Responsive web design is one of the hottest topics among advanced UI developers right now. It uses advanced CSS media queries that we have now started to incorporate into our own designs.

What Are Media Queries?
CSS3 has brought about a ton of fancy visual effects such as shadows and animations, but what about practical improvements? Now days the CSS3 that actually improves the way we can build DNN websites from a usability standpoint? This is due largely to the inclusion of media queries. Media queries are incredibly useful because they solve a huge problem that arose quite suddenly in web design: the need to design for vastly different screen sizes.

User screen sizes have always differed but for the most part this difference was limited to a few inches and you could bet on a huge majority of your audience fitting within parameters that were fairly easy to design around. These days though you have some users on a 27? Apple cinema display and others on a 3.5? smartphone.

That’s a huge difference and there are plenty of stops along the way. The ever-growing number of devices that are web friendly make it increasingly difficult for designers to present one static solution that caters to everyone’s needs.

This need has given birth to the idea of responsive web design, which goes far beyond fluid page widths and actually dramatically changes the layout of a page as the size of the browser window or device screen size changes. Media queries are one of the most powerful tools for meeting this goal because they allow the designer to set special CSS according to certain pre-established rules.

Here will be more about our approach in the advanced skinning for all versions of DotNetNuke that produces amazing result taking your application to a brand new level that shows the site for all device types - including SmartPhones, Tablets or large Desktops.

In the Last two years the incredible growth of Mobile Computing has changed a lot of business models. For example recent IPO of FaceBook is one where the application can produce advertisement revenue from desktop users whilst cannot do that for the mobile users.

That is why it is so important to bring your site up to current trends. So call us today so we can quote you a brand new mobile ready skin for your DotNetNuke website.
