Translation services
We are excited to announce that we will be adding a new service to our varied services list. We have developed some multi-lingual websites where the translation services were provided by a third party or the customers themselves. In order to make the development and integration process more efficient we have decided to add translation services to the services we provide. Therefore you will be able to get websites developed in many languages without having to worry about finding translators yourself. With our background in content management systems and our new translation service we will be able to provide you with high quality, standard compliant multi-lingual websites with elegant designs.
So if you are trying to build a multi-lingual web site talk to us.

We launched our open source website
From the start of the company we had something in mind, also we included it to our policies. It is that we use open source software for our developments. We saw a lot of advantages over using open source, and we believe that our clients are safe with those rather than any bespoke software we do. That doesnt mean that we do not make any bespoke software, we do them but we explain our clients what they can benifit from Open Source.
We have been working with SilverStirpe Open Source CMS from the begining of our company, and SilverStripe has been helping us to make websites and to grow our business. As open source is something more about freedom and sharing we have shared some of the codes we did with the SilverStripe community. They includes modules, widgets, and templates which are done using the designs we have at our template portal. All these peices of software are there on the SilverStripe website,
As the maintainers of these software we thought of launching a new website to give you more information and to alow you to downloand the latest builds etc. You are welcome to visit and download the software there. http://open.whynotonline.com.
Also the website is designed and coded my me (Nivanka) and Dasun is feeding the content to the website. We'd love to hear comments about the design, and the arrangement.
Follow us on twitter
This post is to let you know that from today onwards you can keep in contact with us via twitter.com. Though all of us here are having twitter accounts where we post our tweets we never thought about having one for the company. But after releasing the twitter module for SilverStripe Open Source CMS, we got the idea that we have to create and manage a twitter account.
We can now be really closer to our clients, and partners, as they can read what we are doing even by their mobile phones. At whynotonline.com we mostly work hard to manage good communication with our clients and partners. So here again we took another step forward in-order to achieve our goals.
So welcome to follow us on twitter, here is the URL http://twitter.com/whynotonline

So with that in mind we made some Valentine's wishes and posted them on our Greetings website. Try it out, wish your loved ones using our services, totally free :)
What our clients feel about us
Last month we at whynotonline.com were snowed under projects. I managed to publish the calendar module at the SilverStripe module directory. And we got a contract to build a website for the Sarvodaya the largest NGO at Sri Lanka, so all these things have been keeping us busy all the time.
While we were working on all these we recieved a good feed back for the newly created website which is also an implementation of the calendar module, so this is what we received.
We recently hired Whynotonline.com to do a development and design-job for our website. We needed a calendar-module, intended for our new Silverstripe-based website for our company. They did a very good job. Efficiently, precisely, focusing on our needs and spesifications, they delivered the product tailor-made for us, but at the same time generic, ready for others to use. They obviously are a very skillful, creative and highly competent webdesigners/-developers, and we do not hesitate in recommending their services.
Best regards
Øyvind
Thanks Øyvind for the very positive feeback.
New web plans
We are proud to mention that we have been in business for 8 months. During these 8 months we have achieved a lot, considering the higly competitive nature of the web development field. We have completed more than 10 web based projects successfully, while maintaining a free design templates portal, contributing to silverstripe through templates, widgets, etc. With the real world experience we have gained, we are introducing three web plans for your convenience.
They are-
We believe that with these plans it will be much easier for you to work with us as you would have a better idea of what your needs are as well as a clear idea of what we can provide you with. We have analysed the clientele we have met and gotten to know during these last few months and have realised that they fall into three basic categories, small business owners, medium business owners, and large business owners. Therefore we have planned out these new web plans to serve all of these clients.
As always we would love to hear from you, have a look at what we offer, talk to us if you have any project.
We would love to handle any project you need from a simple website to very demanding web based solutions.
Getting ready for the new year
This is to let you know about our website's new look and feel.
We have been thinking of a way in which we can be more and more attractive, as the result we all agreed that our website needs to be changed.
Earlier the portfolio is messed up, the images were not the same size, in this new theme we created a new module to manage the portfolio. And on the home page we show some of our work, as a fading slideshow, which gives the user some sense of our ablities.
And the blog, we are working towards it and it will come soon (probably within a day) we managed to complete the work before we expected, thanks for the team for making it really neat and tidy.Our designers are working really hard to get this done soon, and many thanks goes to all of them for putting extra hours on this new venture.
Thank you team!
Also we would like to hear what you think about our website, just email your ideas to Nivanka (nivanka@whynotonline.com)
