Sitemakin and Cloner Fast CMS and Cloner

Description

Two tools in one; a simple to use CMS and a site cloner that can clone most websites out there.

Lightning fast CMS that can use any HTML template as its theme. With two clicks of the mouse, you have an editable page. No programming knowledge required!

Alongside the CMS, we have included two cloning tools. One is built to clone the working site into HTML files and the required folders that contain css, images and js. The other tool can be used to clone almost any website on the web and give you a compete set of working files.

Works with Linux VPS and DEDICATED hosting and home PCs, and Windows home PCs using tools like XAMP and WAMP.

Asides from using Sitemakin on a web hosted web server, it also works very quickly with a local server on Windows like XAMP. Watch how easy it clones and edits!

This works easily with VPS, dedicated servers, or in the comfort of your own home by installing Virtualbox(free) and running Linux as a virtual machine on either Windows or Mac. Luckily, you can find VPS packages for a few dollars per month.

Yet another option is to use a Raspberry Pi connected to your router. Or, almost any old computer will do. The simple procedures are covered in the documentation.

For those who are new to Linux, I can help you out.
