PLEASANTON, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Zoho today announced the launch of Zoho Sites, its easy-to-use website builder. The move extends the company’s suite of online applications with a tool that lets businesses quickly create polished, professional websites in minutes — no coding required. A video tour of Zoho Sites is available at http://ow.ly/aUkEU

"We want our users to run their entire business on Zoho," said Raju Vegesna, Zoho evangelist. "Building a website is typically the first step for any business. That has been one of the missing pieces from our portfolio. With Zoho Sites, customers can create and host their websites on Zoho. As a next step, they can host their email in Zoho Mail, customer data in Zoho CRM, financial data in Zoho Books, etc. Websites built using Zoho Sites will be the face of a business, while all the backend data is managed using our other business applications."

Zoho Sites

Zoho Sites lets just about anyone design a professional-looking website without writing a single line of code. Users just need to select a theme from the gallery; drag and drop desired elements such as text, images, videos, etc.; and then publish the site with the push of a button. Making changes is just as easy and fast. Unlike other standalone website creation tools, Zoho Sites is integrated with plenty of third-party applications and also with Zoho’s very own business and productivity apps.

Highlights of Zoho Sites:

• Mobile website – Websites are automatically optimized for access on mobile devices, eliminating the need to create a separate mobile website. Visitors are automatically redirected to the mobile-optimized website when accessing on mobile devices.
• Dynamic content – Zoho Sites simplifies frequent content updates by storing all content in the Zoho Creator database. Whenever content in the database is modified, the corresponding webpage is automatically updated.
• Powerful form builder – Powered by Zoho Creator, the form builder lets users create website forms for various purposes like managing contacts, support requests and much more — without writing any code. Forms can also trigger automated email notifications and other custom workflow.
• Third-party integrations – Pre-integrated YouTube, Google AdWords, Google Maps, Google+, Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and Picasa elements can be embedded on websites easily using the drag-and-drop interface. Other third-party elements can also be embedded.
• Zoho Sites for Google Apps – Zoho Sites is integrated with Google Apps and is available in the Google Apps Marketplace. Google Apps customers can now create and publish websites under their domain.
• Collaborative website creation – Users can invite other users to serve as authors or moderators of select pages or the entire website.
• Themes gallery – An array of ready-made business themes and page layouts can also be customized with the built-in HTML editor.
• Domain registration and hosting – Users can register a domain on Zoho Sites and host their website on that domain. All Zoho Sites websites come with free, reliable hosting.
