CakeMail Launches Website Redesign
Monday, March 31st, 2008Following the successful launch of CakeMail Version 1.3, CakeMail and The Code Kitchen are happy to announce the launch of the redesigned CakeMail website: www.cakemail.com. The overall objective of the redesign is to make the CakeMail website content easily accessible, more concise and more inclusive to our different user groups. We believe this updated look and structure will allow visitors to find the information they need fast, without heavy marketing jargon.
First, you will notice a new lay-out we believe is less cluttered and makes more effective use of space. We have modeled the new website after the stock CakeMail user interface; easy, clean and concise. Of course we have kept the corporate Cake color scheme, but we believe the information is now laid-out in a much more intuitive manner.
The new structure maintains a good working balance between CakeMail’s key products and services, news content, developer material, and an overall view of the business of email marketing. It clearly highlights our programs such as Open CakeMail (you host your interface), Hosted CakeMail (we host your interface), as well as our API. Also, it more clearly highlights many important features such as our forum, key downloadable information as well as our new CakeMail blog!
CakeMail’s open-innovation approach extends to our marketing effort. So please check-out our new site, and as usual, let us know how we can improve it. In the coming weeks, there will be more blog posts to update you on new and exciting additions to our site, and product line. So if you haven’t already, I strongly suggest you subscribe to the CakeMail RSS feed. There are lots of exciting things cooking!
Release 1.3 of the CakeMail Interface
Thursday, March 27th, 2008CakeMail is pleased to announce its latest release of the CakeMail open interface, version 1.3. All CakeMail hosted interfaces are updated automatically. If you are hosting your own interface, you can download it at: http://www.cakemail.com/download/
Template creation & management
To help speed-up the mailing creation process, CakeMail users can easily create professional templates, and then access them through their template library. CakeMail Resellers can use the CakeMail template management tool to reduce demands on creative resources, by offering their clients a set of system- or user-based mailing templates.
Improved reporting
CakeMail reporting is more powerful than ever. With a simple mouse click, CakeMail users can download detailed mailing results information like who opened the mailing, who clicked on a link, and which email addresses are no longer valid. Leveraging the data from prior mailings, users can instantly generate open and click-through lists and use them to ensure timely, personalized and relevant responses.
Automated install script
There is great news for CakeMail resellers who host their interface on their own servers. CakeMail now has an install script that will automatically validate server pre-requisites, install the UI, and look for recent updates. So now you don’t have to worry about manually searching for and installing updates, all you have to do is run the CakeMail install script!
