TapSite is a website builder made for mobile. Every control is here, from colors to fonts to the button that launches your brand new website. No need to write code, or find a desk. If you prefer spending time on your phone or tablet instead of at a computer, TapSite is for you. If you want to document an adventure or promote your latest gig on a page that doesn't vanish under new content, TapSite is for you. Stay on the move and still keep your site fresh for your audience. TapSite is mobile, but the design options are built to scale for screens big and small. So if you are trying to get the attention of someone who does use their computer, your website won't look like it was made on a mobile device, and that's the point. Once you make that impression, help people connect with you using forms, so you can grow your network. Why stop at one hope or dream? With a TapSite subscription, you can create two websites, so you can work on landing that important job and still promote your rock band. If you have ever started making changes to a website and needed to stop halfway through, but worried about your site looking unfinished, TapSite is for you. Launch a basic splash page quickly, and work on different versions privately. Once you have that "2.0" ready to go, just swap out the whole website with a few taps. If you have thought about learning how to make websites for others, but find learning code to be a challenge, TapSite is for you. People can share access so others can make changes on their own devices. Try building your own site, then use those skills to help others build their brand. All this, plus the ability to link a custom domain name, add photos and documents, choose from dozens of layouts you can mix and match, pull colors from your photos to help design, and much more. Even more features: - 10GB website storage (images/documents/page content) per plan, shared between your sites. - 20k visits per month for each plan (soft cap) - grow with confidence! - Pages include SEO tags that social media and search engine sites look for. Change the text and image as you see fit. - Choose fonts and colors that work for you. If you want to rebrand, changing a color changes it everywhere that color is used, which saves you time. - Forms can forward your web visitors to other pages, or show a popup or a "thank you" message. - Limited images to work with? You can choose photos from select image services that help to reinforce your writing. Terms of Services: https://tapsitepolicies.com/app/terms-of-services/
