Built w/Microsoft technology

HotKey 2006 Content Management System

Do it yourself or make your webmaster's job much easier!

HotKey Features
Easy Page Maker. WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get). Easy as using MS Word. Create web pages, online newsletters, or whatever you can dream up. Learn how to use the system in minutes using the animated tutorials here. Now works with Safari and FireFox!

WIKI and BLOG. Turn any page of your site into a wiki where you can choose to let anyone post or reserve posting for one of many security levels you pick, including "fast self register" or "register with approval".

Online Calendar
. How about a dynamic part of your site that is called "Latest News" (or whatever you want to call it). You easily add/remove events that are displayed on your web site instantaneously. "Calendar look" is an option. See here.

Security. You can now set security level by group and/or security level number for any page of your site. This is useful, for example, if you have multiple clients and you want to set up a page on your site for each client but only they can see that page.
 
User/Group/Subscription Manager. A few clicks to manage users, send email to subscribers telling them about your latest newsletter, event, or product.

Newsletter Maker/Sender. Create an unlimited number of your own newsletter templates. Fully integrated into the user/group database and the subscription manager so you can send any template to any user or group of users or group of subscribers. Easy registration form allows your members/customers to register, log in, and change their subscription any time.

Survey/Form Maker. Easily create your own polls, surveys, and forms. Powerful! Planning an event or meeting and you have two dates in mind? Create a poll to find out which date works best for the most people. This is a powerful way to ask for and get opinions. You can also use this tool to create custom contact forms, registration forms, etc.

Custom Lists
. Create any kind of list you can dream up, including FAQs, products, testimonials, images, etc. We used this custom list maker to create the Online Calendar which means you have complete control over customizing your calendar.

File Manager
. Upload/download files. Specify user groups for permission to access these files. Allow certain user groups to upload as well. NEW: You now have full control over top, left, and bottom files as well as the styles.css file.

File Sharing. You can upload files to the site and set those files to be downloadable by whatever users/groups you specify. Files are automatically encrypted and then decrypted when downloaded. This means security! You can also decide whether you want to give any users permission to upload files or you can turn off this capability. We are also willing to modify, within reason, how the File Manager works so that it is easier or more secure for your clients to use, if that ends up being needed! NEW: Now the file manager allows you to upload/download and even edit-in-place the system files that control your site architecture, including top, left, bottom, and right menus.

Simple Contact Management
. Use the built-in tools to set aside parts of your site for each of your sales force. The salesperson logs in with a unique password and manages his/her client calls/visits/appointments from anywhere.

Export Site. If at some point you want to move to another provider or stop using our content management system, we will export the site for you... [read more]

Convert all pages of your site. The whole point of HotKey is to give you the power to easily build and manage your own web site.
