Managing Director at Digital Excellence

We have a task that requires publishing 10-12 very small (10 pages) but separate sites. I'm looking for a hosted solution and SaaS if possible. These sites will have a relatively short lifespan so we are cost sensitive.
We don't need huge functional sophistication, these sites will be very much brochureware - but we would like to have broad flexibility on design.
Can anybody recommend a supplier or suggest their own product ;)?
Thanks

Hello,
oh, yes...I know the perfect solution. See some more info about such as CMS at: http://www.naxtech.com/products.asp#cms
There is also a demo version there online which you can play around with. I'm sure you'll love its simplicity and effectiveness. It's like writing a Word document... it's that simple to use.
regards,
Denis

Hi Graham,
We provide a hosted CMS service with our SEO websites, if the content is quite similar across the sites I am sure there is something we can do on rates, or use your own template. http://www.virtumedia.co.uk

Hi Chris,
Did you get sorted with this? ForLinux provides Open Source Solutions so the CMS software would be free. Have you take a look at any Open Source Solutions?

I've used Expression Engine for a number of small scale projects and also for some multi-lingual / multi-domain projects.
It's very good for quick projects like small brochure sites and PPC landing pages, and with a few tweaks the SEO is very capable also.
Well worth a look and only a few hundred dollars for the multi-site version which I think is the one you're after.
It's much more flexible for the future than SAAS in case any of the sites takes off and needs to be extendedI use it even if I'm just doing very simple pages as you never know where the future will take you....
Drop me a note with some more details and I'll be happy to point you in the right direction or help get you set up and running.

Hi Graham,
You probably have this sorted out by now - but if not I think CushyCMS would be a perfect cost effective solution. Easy to use and implement (so no real overhead in learning to use it). SaaS model. Complete design flexability.
We have quite a lot of experience with it for projects that do not warrant our in-house CMS or where budget is a problem.
If you want any further info on it or indeed any help with it, then please just drop me an email.
Kind Regards
Ed
