WebPage Wizard
New Software Passes the Student / Grandmother Test
and Makes Creating Web Pages Easy.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Fullerton, CA -- WEB-2000, Inc. announced the release of WebPage Wizard
today with the claim that now anyone can create Web Pages on the Internet
and have set up their own Web Site in 10 minutes.
To demonstrate the simplicity of WebPage Wizard, a diskette was given to
a 13 year old 8th grade student and to a 60 year old grandmother. Neither
of the two had any familiarity with web pages although the student had
used the Internet and the grandmother had used America Online for e-mail.
WebPage Wizard is a new release from WEB-2000, Inc., which describes itself
as an Internet Facilitator. WEB-2000, Inc. provides web site hosting as
well as producing custom Internet and Intranet solutions for both large
and small companies. WebPage Wizard is the latest product release by the
company to meet the need for individuals and small businesses to set up and
maintain their own Web Sites without having to know any programming language
or have any special training.
How did the testers do?
The student took about 10 minutes to get her Web Site created through the
on-line setup feature and then spent about 30 minutes creating a Home Page
and a linked page for a site that features songs lyrics of Weird Al Yankovich.
The grandmother took a little longer to get the Web Site set up. She spent
15 minutes after deciding to start over and use a different name for her
web site. She then created a Home Page for family history with a link for
future pages to be about each branch of the family. This took her about
30 minutes and used standard images for bullets and decorative lines.
H. Rudy Nesmith, President of WEB-2000, Inc. when announcing the results of
the test stated the purpose of the product: "WebPage Wizard is meant to
provide a simple way for anyone to set up a Web Site with pages that they
create and can change, add to, or remove anytime they want. ItÆs not meant
to be a highly technical HTML editor, but it allows people to do a lot more
than the simplistic web page products that step you through a fixed form
and then output a page that you have no control over."
WebPage Wizard is available as a free download from the WEB-2000 site
at http://www.web2000.com and is being released as Shareware to participating
Bulletin Board Services, CD-ROM Distributors, and Shareware Vendors under
the guidelines of the Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP).
