Moonfruit Launches French Version Of Flash Site Building Toolkit

London, June 8th 2007. – Moonfruit, www.moonfruit.com, the award winning, Flash-based, site building toolkit, used to create over 1.5 million websites to date, has been launched in a French language version available at www.moonfruit.fr

Moonfruit is designed to allow anyone, expert or beginner, to build and develop websites, introduce and edit site functions and facilities using simple drag and drop tools. There is no requirement to learn any programming languages or specific web codes.

“Since its creation in 2000, Moonfruit has been used to create all manner of sites, whether for businesses or private individuals, clubs or families and friends. Functionality available to Moonfruit site builders includes scalable video players, discussion forums, E-commerce tools, membership tools and animated characters. We are delighted to be able to offer all of this to those French speakers around the world who want to create their own unique and engaging presence on the web.” says, Joe White, Moonfruit CEO.

There are a number of different subscription models available to all Moonfruit site builders ranging from free of charge sites that carry advertising to subscription models that are advertising free.

White continues: “We launched this service partly because we noted a high volume of French site builders using Moonfruit, despite the fact that it was previously only available in English. Cities in France, such as Paris, have long had fast, affordable broadband to the home having benefited from different market conditions to those in the UK. As a result, many French residents get Triple Play packages to the home often with unlimited calls and over 80 Television channels via their broadband connection. This is a logical environment for Moonfruit to thrive.”
