Webs Announces Pagemodo Spring 2014 Release, Making Social Marketing Simple for the Small Business

Webs, provider of the world's premier marketing platform for the small business, today announced the availability of the Pagemodo Spring 2014 Release. This latest release of Pagemodo is designed to make it easy for the small business marketer to create a consistent and engaging visual social media presence. Its flagship social management product has been bolstered with Post Designer and Cover Photo Designer, which help independent business owners, marketing agencies, entrepreneurs, and bloggers rapidly create and publish eye-catching Facebook cover photos and visual posts that can be shared on major social platforms, including Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn (News - Alert).

With more than a million small business users in 104 countries, Pagemodo's history of innovation and success has made it the most recognized social marketing tool specifically designed for the small business. Today's release builds on Pagemodo's heritage as one of the earliest comprehensive social marketing tools, continuing its tradition of bringing to market robust, easy-to-use tools that help small businesses expand their reach and engagement to drive more traffic and further their growth objectives.

"The ability to easily integrate visual posts into our Facebook (News - Alert) page is very important because many of our clients are overseas or just learning the language, so we focus heavily on social media to connect with them," said Alyne Silva, Brazilian Counselor at the Connect School of Languages in Toronto. "Pagemodo makes it quick and easy to design something that looks good across all social media platforms without any design experience. It has helped us engage with current and potential students around the world."

With this release, Pagemodo enables small business owners to quickly design and publish visual posts and cohesive cover photos to promote their products, sales, events, contests, holidays, and articles - without any design skills or expensive software. Pagemodo is the only social marketing tool that allows consistent branding and coordinated campaigns across social platforms and other marketing efforts.

The Spring 2014 release includes the following new features:

<>Hundreds of professional and customizable themes, providing the small business with unlimited customization options and post themes that can be personalized by using Pagemodo's robust photo library or with a branded business logo.

Easy-to-use shape and text editor, giving the user the ability to select from various styles, fonts, and custom shapes such as chat bubbles for use in social posts, all without the cost of pricey design software.

Exportability of custom designs, enabling image download for use on other channels - including email marketing and print collateral. Business owners will be able to save time and money and maintain consistent branding throughout their marketing efforts.

Intuitive user interface, for simple use without training time, making social marketing asset creation and management fast and easy.

Preview and publish to Facebook, Twitter (News - Alert) and LinkedIn, giving businesses the opportunity to publish their visual posts across multiple social networks, or even to synchronize their posts with their marketing campaigns using built-in scheduling features.

"Social media is absolutely essential to the small business, and using photos in social posts results in better engagement," said Alfredo Ramos, Director of Social Products at Webs. "We built these new tools because small business owners shouldn't have to turn to professional graphic designers and complex design software to update their Facebook cover photo or to incorporate images into their social posts."
