XSitePro review

 

Well, you asked for it. Why do I use XSitePro to create and manage new sites?

 

Because it knows how a lot better than I do.

 

I freely admit I'm no techno-geek. It took me years to learn, be comfortable with and apply what little I do know.

Graphics, SEO, all that stuff...my eyes would glaze over at the mere mention of such things. I even attempted to take a highly reputable SEO course twice and bagged out because I just couldn't wrap my mind around it.

 

After asking lots of questions of lots of people at lots of places, I came to know a few basic things that allow me to maintain this site (barely) and work on its growth and development. You should see me try to edit sometime, or better yet, try to design a page let alone a site. Not for the faint-hearted...

 

As usual with just about everything online, I saw and heard all the hullabaloo when XSitePro first launched and how the big guys said it was phenomenal and you gotta get this yesterday, and so on and so on. I just did what I always do when something interesting and/or helpful comes out.

 

I waited.

 

It was over six months from the launch that I decided I'd poke around and see if XSitePro actually worked or even existed still. Goodness knows plenty of other stuff that looked good at first hasn't!

 

People were still genuinely impressed with it and raved about how easy it was to use and how quickly their new sites soared in the search engine rankings. I mean I looked all over, from beginners to the advanced hotshots that spoke fluent Computer Geek. They all loved it.

 

Well, no.

 

Some geek-speakers didn't like it so much. They said it should be more flexible and be able to do this and execute that. I felt my eyes glazing over.

 

So, I waited some more. Would the harsh criticism kill XSitePro and would they do what so many won't do: get off their butts, fix the problems and make it better?

 

A little over a month later, I checked around again. I was hoping for the best because I was hating spending so much time doing this stuff.

 

Lo and behold - the XSitePro people listened to the complaints and got right on to fixing them. All of them!

 

 

 

I checked out what all kinds of people were saying about it, and it was 95% good. The other 5% turned out to be the people who like to complain and gripe about everything or whine that everything isn't being done for them. You know who I'm talking about, right?

 

I took the plunge and got it myself to try it out. As soon as I got it, I promptly downloaded it and didn't touch it again for over a month.

 

Thought I was going to say I dove right in and banged off a few dozen websites before lunch that now provide the income to support my extravagently pretentious lifestyle, didn't you?

 

Nope. I still work nights at the car wash to support my extravagently pretentious lifestyle.

 

I didn't touch it for the usual reasons people buy stuff and don't use it. It was destined to collect cyber-dust in my desktop files along with all the ebooks and programs I bought and never used. Probably just like you.

 

Not only that, I was scared of it! It was a technical thingie

obviously beyond my comprehension, waiting to suck me into its maze of gibberish that caused so many headaches before.

 

 

 

Then my youngest son got interested in rats. Not Willard, but the soft, sweet, cuddly pet kind. Yes, they are soft, sweet and cuddly, no matter what you think.

 

So anyway, he loved his ratties and decided he wanted to read some cool rat stories that showed good rats and not the usual evil nasty things we all automatically think of.

They were darn hard to find, and so was some other stuff like good rat toys - toy rats for kids, that is.

 

I'm sure you can guess what happened next. He turned to dear old Dad who worked on the Internet and had a website to build one about rat stuff.

 

Yipe.

 

Why must the fear of disappointing your kids be such a strong motivator anyhow? So what if when they're grown they say, "Yeah, I really wanted that website with my dad. but he didn't do it and that's why I'm in prison."?

 

I took out XSitePro, dusted it off and got to work.

 

They must have seen me coming. It was all step-by-step and ridiculously easy steps at that. You wanna do this? Click here. You wanna add that? Click here. I was almost done when I realized I had enjoyed the experience. I had enjoyed setting up and launching a website!!

 

There are few more frustrating and time consuming tasks than updating the same info on all your web pages, like when your address changes. With XSItePro, I made what I needed to insert and clicked a button and there was the info on each and every page! I nearly cried with joy. 

 

I have more sites set up with XSitePro, and it only gets even easier each time. 

 

Now I update things now and then, tweak here or there and generally putter around. There's isn't a whole lot to keeping it up and with XSitePro, I'm in and out in minutes.

No major screwups, no hair-pulling, no cries of anguish. Gosh, how I miss that sometimes.

 

I struggled to learn what I needed to know when my webmaster who made this site dumped me (and all her clients) to go into something else. OK, I wasn't dumped exactly, but I had to find another way or quit. Man, I hated figuring that stuff out with a passion, but I had to do it. That didn't mean I was going to enjoy it and I didn't.

 

I like using XSitePro. I like the XSItePro support which I desperately needed to help me through the obligatory screwup or three. It felt super to have a tool to do this stuff without crying, twitching or screaming. It scared my kids less too.

 

Now the XSitePro folks are talking about an upgrade after soliciting suggestions from actual XSitePro users. I don't know how, but it'll be even better. And more expensive because it's be that much better.

 

They're also talking about either giving the upgrade outright to current XSitePro users or charging a mere pittance for it. It'll be more than worth the pittance, believe me.

 

That means this is the time to grab one of the greatest values found anywhere today, before its price gets cranked up. Now those geek-speakers are telling their gripes and complaints directly to XSitePro, and they're listening and doing it.

 

 

 

Promises are wonderful things that break very easily. XSItePro doesn't just promise, it delivers. If I genuinely thought that any other product like it was as easy and quick to use and so effective, I'd tell you so. You gotta do your homework before you set up a site, naturally. Know what you're going for and then make it with XSitePro.

 

You really won't miss those headaches...much.
