Welcome WebsiteSpark | A new developer resources platform

WebsiteSpark is launching officially in Ireland on Tuesday, October 20th at the Guinness Storehouse.  WebsiteSpark provides web designers, developers, students, freelancers and anyone else who is interested software licenses, support and business resources to help them grow and succeed.

WebsiteSpark will provide you the following software licenses for three years.  After enrolling here, you can download & immediately use the software.

• 3 licenses of Visual Studio 2008 Professional
• 1 license of Expression Studio 3 (including Blend, Sketchflow, Web & Encoder)
• 2 licenses of Expression Web 3
• 4 processor licenses of Windows Server 2008 R2 (can be used for development and/or production)
• 4 processor licenses for SQL Server 2008 Web Edition (can be used for development and/or production)

Along with the licenses, WebsiteSpark provides a business network to help grow your business, product support and free, online training.

Who can be a part of it:
There are only two requirements to join the WebsiteSpark program.  A) Your company builds websites and/or web applications for other people (that is, you’re not building a product, you’re providing a service) and B) Your company has < 10 employees.

The WebsiteSpark program allows you all of the above for free for three years.  At the end of the third year, there is a $100 program fee, but other than that there are no additional costs.
