Why you should learn to build dynamic business sites
Each business is unique. It offers its own products and services and caters to a different audience. So why should business sites be all cut from the same template? Toolset lets you set-up the custom types that will hold unique information for each business. A business that offers sawing machines will have “sawing machine” types. Businesses that offer consultancy services will have “consultancy” types. And each will have the exact right fields.
In this course, you will learn how to define the right content types for each business and how to display them on the site with your own design and style.
This knowledge will allow you to build custom business sites faster and easier. It will also allow your clients to run these sites and maintain their own content without the risk of breaking anything.
