London, UK, June 29, 2009: Open source web designers NeoFront Ltd launched RentWebsite, a new website rental service for small and medium businesses. RentWebsite specialises in delivering websites with the content management system TYPO3.
TYPO3 is a free Open Source CMS for enterprise purposes on the web and in intranets. It offers full flexibility and extendability while featuring an accomplished set of ready-made interfaces, functions and modules. TYPO3 has been downloaded over 3,000,000 times from Sourceforge.org which makes it one of the World's leading Enterprise Open Source products.
RentWebsite has partnered with TemplateMonster, the world's leading website template provider. This allows businesses to choose from over 10,000 designs for their website rental. "The quality of the designs and the ability to rent a website means that businesses can now have a professional looking website with an entreprise level content management system at a fraction of the price" commented Yannick Morel, director of NeoFront.
RentWebsite is offering over 25 features and options to choose from when renting a website. Options vary from traditional modules such as news, picture galleries, video player, contact form and forum to business related modules such as job postings and real estate management. "We did not want to offer all-in-one packages or ready made websites since most businesses have very different needs. By offering options 'a la carte' we were able to cut the price of the end product. Our clients only pay for what they need."
This innovative website rental service is offered with a setup cost and a monthly cost. "Each website is custom built depending on the customer's requirements, which is why there is a setup cost. However, we decided to offer this service without any contract. In these difficult times, businesses are in need to cut their cost with no extra risk involved. Deciding to rent a website is a more viable solution compared to leasing or buying."
The process of renting a website starts from choosing a design and selecting the features, to creating an account and paying through Paypal (www.paypal.com). "We chose to offer an 'e-commerce' type of process to rent a website through our system. You can select the design and features of your website and know the cost straight away without giving any of your personal details. All our competitors ask to be contacted to obtain prices, which makes website hunting more time consuming and difficult. We believe in transparency when it comes to pricing."
Many startups or risky business ventures decide to rent a website for strategic reasons. Renting leaves more money in the budget for marketing and advertisement and the cost to rent a website can be deductible as a business expense. "Buying a website does not cover all the aspects of having an on-line presence. Hosting, maintenance and support are just the tip of iceberg. Choosing to rent a website is really becoming more and more appealing to small and medium companies."
RentWebsite is currently only offered in English but the ability to choose from 3 different currencies ($US, €EURO, £GBP) makes the service attractive to a global market.
