Welcome to TIME Sites!

TIME Sites allows you and your team to collaboratively build, manage and publish your entire Web Content System (WCS). The TIME Sites WCS is comprised of three primary products:

  • Home for oversight and organization

  • Design Studio for design teams to create websites, templates and blocks from scratch—code free, responsive and infinitely scalable.

  • Content Studio for marketing, sales and business teams to build, edit and publish content—no developers required.

Home

Home is the place for your entire content operation. Upon logging in (preview below), you will see a visual display of your templates, websites, Blocks, and team members.

Your entire WCS is organized using tags. Tags are simply labels. You can add any number of tags to your account which will organize the content you see on Home.

Organizing your WCS this way provides your company with an intuitive, infinitely scalable organizational system to support your entire content operation.

Home, combined with your marketing tech stack, enables teams across your distributed organization to plan content changes from a data-informed position.

Additionally, by connecting the TIME Sites Design and Content Studios with a more robust organizational system, your entire organization is empowered to collaborate effectively while publishing on-brand content consistently–further strengthening your customer relationships and increasing your ROI.

Content Studio

Content Studio joins the TIME Sites Design Studio, our powerful web creation tool, where your design teams already create customized templates, blocks, and websites. However, Content Studio is built for marketing and sales teams to easily create and publish branded, mobile-ready web content in an intuitive interface–quickly and all without writing a line of code.

Design Studio

Our powerful visual Design Studio lets you create original, responsive designs with pixel-level control and without the constraints of page templates. This is the heart of TIME Sites, where you can visually manipulate the HTML structure and the CSS styling of every element on the page, make your site responsive to different screen sizes, and add custom animations and interactions.

One-click publishing and our fast and reliable hosting stack means you get your web experiences—whether they are microsites, landing pages, prototypes, presentations, event pages, and so on—up and running without the need for developers or an IT department.

TIME Sites runs completely in Google Chrome, so while it does require a reliable internet connection, there’s no need for software installs of any kind.

Also if you have coding abilities, or your organization requires it, the code for the website can be exported and customized to be published into your own environment.
