We’re very excited to announce the YikeSite Reseller Program. Now web designers and developers can fully brand YikeSite to their own company and/or name.

Split Revenues 50/50 With YikeSite

Resellers get a 50% discount off the regular plans and get to bill their clients full price. The only requirement to receive the discount is to be on either the Small Biz ($24/mo) or Big Biz ($45/mo) plan.

We bill you monthly via credit card for your reseller account plan and for each of your customer accounts you will be billed at the 50% discounted rate. You will bill your customers directly however you normally do (credit card, cheque, cash, bones, etc.)

Completely Branded

White label YikeSite to your own company & brand. Your customers will see your logo in the login and administration screens.

Your Own Signup Page

Signing up a new account with your new CMS is easy. You get your own signup URL such as www.acmecms.com/signup where potential customers can sign up for a free plan. Sit back and receive email notifications for each signup that happens on your site.

Custom URLs

When you sign up for a YikeSite account, you get a free URL such as mysite.yikesite.com.

When you’re a reseller you can use the generic mysite.clientwebsite.net or point a wildcard domain at us and use mysite.acmecms.com for a complete branded experience.

Dashboard Of Customer Activity

Stay in the loop on what’s happening with your customers’ websites. Easily view the activity that is happening on any of your sites such as creating, updating and deleting of pages.

Watch Your Company Grow

Take a peek at your revenue snapshot to see exactly how much you’re earning as a reseller. Get monthly, quarterly and annual revenue projections at a glance.

How do you become a reseller?

Once you have upgraded to a paid account, just send us an email and we’ll set you up as a reseller. From that point on you can use your own signup form to set up clients.

Please let us know your thoughts on this new addition to YikeSite and if you see any way we can improve the reseller program.

Automatic Image Resizing

Ever upload an image from your digital camera and see that it is way too huge to fit in a website? Now in YikeSite your image will automagically be scaled down to fit in your website. What’s more is that we create a nifty 150 pixel wide thumbnail as well.

We’ve updated the image manager as well so you’re actually looking at thumbnails now instead of just text. Which leads way to the very exciting news of…

The Photo Gallery!

We’ve added the gallery module to YikeSite which is good news for photographers, artists & generally photo-friendly people. In YikeSite, photos are organized to each page in your site. So you upload your images the same way as normal and if you want to display all images on a page, just turn on the photo gallery module.

Gallery Design

When you add the gallery to an existing site, you will need to add styles to the gallery. To get a head start, you can copy the layout CSS from the default or the full bloom theme.

So go have fun and please send us any feedback or feature requests!

We publicly launched YikeSite August 28th, 2007. In the first year we’ve seen hundreds of signups, great buzz in the blogosphere, new features launched, trips overseas, an iPhone giveaway and an overall great time for YikeSite contributors. We put together this little video to celebrate the first year. Enjoy!
