Clickbooq Simplifies Websites for Photographers, Introduces Latest Platform
SAN FRANCISCO, CA (PRWEB) June 08, 2015 -- clickbooq, inc., a cloud-based, website services provider for professional photographers and artists, today announced the launch of its newest release, clickbooq V3. Built using the latest advancements in web code, clickbooq’s web-based application builds smart, responsive sites that automatically adjust for optimal display on any screen, from desktop to mobile. The new platform makes it easy to create and maintain a full-featured portfolio website that attracts new business, streamlines workflow, and costs as little as $9/month.
When clickbooq launched in 2007, it was one of the first to offer a website builder made for photographers. Today, a new website builder or online gallery tool is announced almost daily. However, most of these competing services provide only basic image management tools, making common tasks such as organizing portfolios or uploading images a cumbersome experience. They also lack the ability to store images in a single online repository. “Having to search for images on hard drives every time you create or update a portfolio is a tremendous waste of time,” said clickbooq CEO and co-founder Bryan Heu. “With a clickbooq Pro account, our users can store up to 5,000 images in a single, searchable archive that is accessible from any web browser.”
What further sets clickbooq apart from the competition is the creative flexibility. Using services that lock you into a template or have limited customization options will lead to a site that quickly becomes outdated. With clickbooq, users can switch their template any time and every template is highly customizable – almost every component is editable, from the style of galleries (slideshow, vertical or horizontal scroller, and visually stunning grid options are available) to the mixed media options offered by a drag-and-drop Page Builder. Users can easily embed videos, add a Google Map, create a customizable contact form, and insert a gallery from their image archive. With the ability to insert HTML code, edit custom CSS, and connect to dozens of social networks, creating a truly unique site with custom branding has never been easier.
It is this attention to detail and deep insight into their customer base that has kept clickbooq in business through tumultuous times for the industry. “Recently there have been a number of high profile flameouts in the photography market, from our largest competitor shutting down seemingly overnight to large scale restructuring and buyouts,” commented Heu. “But clickbooq has stayed the course – we still cater almost exclusively to the professional photographer market and have the same owners as we did when we launched in 2007. We applied over eight years of experience servicing this market to roll out our most innovative application yet. clickbooq’s V3 platform not only streamlines the photographer’s workflow, it also makes the task of creating your portfolio website a fun, easy and rewarding experience.”
The new platform is already live and taking sign ups - there is no need to wait for a hyped beta release. Here is just some of the feedback from clients using the new V3 platform:
“After trying out many other website platforms, I decided that clickbooq was the right website builder for me. It is super easy for me to use and allows me to have complete control. Finally my work is able to be shown the way I want it to be, with a powerful set of back end tools that allow me to easily update and move forward.”
