Over the last few years, we have been working on the overly ambitious project of rebuilding our Website Builder and Content Management System based on modern coding standards, cutting edge design, and advanced functionality. It's been an incredible challenge for our small team, but we're super proud of what we've created. And when our automated billing system is complete in the next few weeks, we will be ready to launch!
The beta testing phase with the first 25 clients was successful and we are now ready to migrate all current client websites from the 1.0 platform to 2.0. Keep in mind that we have limited capacity, so you should start the process as soon as possible to get on our schedule.
Did you notice our new website? It is a great example of what your site can look like on the new platform with a little planning, or look at our home page to see a few other featured sites.

In the last few months clients have had a growing paranoia about a growing number of ADA lawsuits (Americans with Disabilities Act) for website accessability.

To be absolutely clear, Website Accessbility for disabled persons is very important. It's not only legally required (in some cases), it is morally correct, and it's also in the interest of every organization and business to provide services to all people equally.

We've gotten a lot of inquiries lately from business owners concerned about being sued over website accessibility by disabled persons. This is a complex situation that deserves some attention.
Websites Should be Accessible to All
We want all our websites to be accessible to people with disabilities, so that all visitors can use our client’s services equally. It’s good for disabled visitors and it’s good for our clients, because people with disabilities represent an important customer base. It’s a win win situation for everyone.
If you are aware of any errors on our websites that are in clear violation of ADA compliance or WCAG standards, please alert us and we will immediately evaluate and fix.
Current Gutensite Websites Implement Accessibility Standards
Your current Gutensite website already implements the basic accessibility best practice standards (as a principle, although there could be instances of a few images or links missing some critical code). You can download the ...
