CloudCannon, the freedom to create, takes on the global market launching at TechCrunch Disrupt in London with $500k in funding from leading New Zealand investors including Sam Morgan, Phil McCaw, Stephen Tindall and Simon Holdsworth. CloudCannon is dedicated to bringing content to the web faster and easier by breaking down technical barriers allowing for true creative freedom. Check out CloudCannon here: cloudcannon.com/DisruptPromoMadness "We're excited to be backing Mike and his team. CloudCannon is global from day one and we look forward to supporting them in their high growth phase," said Sam Morgan, founder of Jasmine Investments. Before CloudCannon, web designers needed to have backend programming skills or compromise their creative freedom by using a website builder to make updateable websites for clients. With CloudCannon, static websites are now a viable alternative. These websites are simpler to build, faster to ship, allow complete creative freedom and with CloudCannon, clients can update their website directly on the page. CloudCannon partners with cloud storage providers, domain registrars and hosting companies to make the rest of the website setup seamless. CloudCannon completely eliminates steps in the normal website production process so web designers can focus on what they love: design. "We built CloudCannon because, as designers ourselves, we saw a need that no other product was solving. We wanted to lift the bar on current website design, by taking out time intensive technical tasks and focusing on the creative aspects," stated Mike Neumegen, CEO of CloudCannon. CloudCannon recently partnered with Rightside, one of the world's largest domain name registries. Offering the range of new Rightside Top Level Domains (TLDs) to the community of web designers is about enabling them to find the perfect domain name for their client. This is something that has become increasingly difficult with the depletion of quality .com's. On a technical level, the partnership also allows CloudCannon to streamline one of the trickiest parts of setting up a website - domain name and DNS settings - and make it as seamless as the rest of the CloudCannon experience. "Designers from around the world will be able to design, build and deploy world-class websites using CloudCannon and Rightside domain branding extensions such as .social, .rocks, .ninja, .dance, .reviews, .lawyer and other Rightside new domain extensions," said Dwayne Walker, Senior Vice President of Business Development for Rightside. "These new domain branding extensions coupled with CloudCannon website services offer a powerful and unique platform for web and creative designers around the world," Walker added.
