First Website Live on 3.0

Check it out...the first site built entirely on 3.0 is live! Congrats to Calvary Baptist Church in Elko, Nevada, who redesigned their site using our Beta 3.0 Website Builder. Christine Richardson, pastor's admin assistant and office manager at Calvary, gave us this great feedback:

"As someone who has been using OCS since 2013, I can’t say enough about how impressed I am with their 3.0 version. It is so much easier to navigate through and now all of the wonderful OCS 2.0 tools that I’ve loved for years are all right at my fingertips. 2.0 was awesome and had many wonderful capabilities but now the entire admin side of 3.0 is cleaner and smoother and the end results in terms of website building are amazing!"

Utilizing video backgrounds and several of our new predefined sections, their fully responsive site showcases 3.0 Web Builder's ability to look great on both desktops and mobiles, so check it out on your cell phone, too. No more need for the additional mobile web app.
