Robust Drag + Drop CMS platformUpdating your website on the Loop Collective CMS (Content Management System) platform is unlike anything you’ve ever experienced. Our drag & drop website builder makes it dead simple to maintain a powerful, professional website without any technical skills required.
Content elements (like text, photos, maps, and videos) are added to your website by simply dragging & dropping them into place. Text is edited just like in a word processor. Updating your website is done in real time, right from within your web browser. There's absolutely nothing to install and no upgrades to worry about. |
Powerful HostingThe Loop Collective doesn't only provide the easiest CMS platform – we’re also a rock solid web host. Every website is hosted by our datacenter redundant, cloud based hosting infrastructure. Your website lives in two data center locations across the United States to provide superior uptime, response time, and reliability compared to most any other hosting.
How is this possible? On a traditional web host, your website shares disk space and CPU power with dozens or sometimes hundreds of other customers on a single server. If one of those other customer’s websites has a big traffic spike, all websites on that server can slow to a crawl. With the Loop Collective, your website is served across our entire server infrastructure that powers unlimited website and pageviews each day. If your website is featured on the homepage of CNN.com, it won’t cause as much of a hiccup in the performance of your website, or the other websites hosted by the Loop Collective. Best of all, this level of world-class hosting is included completely free when your website is built by the Loop Collective. |

It’s a breeze to include beautiful photo galleries, videos, audio clips, and other widgets.
You have the flexibility to make the blog your website’s homepage, a sub-page in the menu, or even include multiple blogs on the same website. Our blogging engine is fully featured and includes:

Automatic Mobile SitesWith the fast growing number of people browsing the web with their mobile phones, it’s crucial to have a responsive, mobile ready website. The Loop Collective only codes responsive websites! Visitors that arrive to your website on a phone or tablet are shown the appropriate version of your site, while visitors arriving to your website on a computer are shown the full website. You don’t have to do anything – it just works!

Photo Galleries + Slideshows
It’s easy to show off your photos in beautiful, professional photo galleries and slideshows. You select the photos to include and we’ll make them look great with transition effects, automatic resizing, and a wide selection of different display styles.
|
Video + Audio Players
When you upload video or audio files to the Loop Collective CMS, we automatically convert them for playback directly from your website. This means that your website visitors won’t have to download your files and open a separate media player to watch or listen.

Easy Form Builder
Our drag & drop form builder makes it easy for you to collect information from your visitors. We have contact forms, RSVP forms, and surveys already pre-built, making it dead simple to gather comments, contact info, and responses from your website visitors. We even have a file drop box element that accepts documents, pictures, or other file uploads from your visitors.
Our form builder is flexible too. Customize a form by dragging and dropping new fields (such as text boxes, dropdown menus, and check boxes) into any configuration you need. When a form entry is submitted by a website visitor, you are emailed the details and the entry is also stored in your site’s dashboard for you to review or respond to later. |
Image Editor
We don’t mean to brag, but the image editor is a feature that really sets the Loop Collective apart from the crowd. We include our fabulous image editing tool that makes it a breeze to crop, resize, fade, and layer your photos. With one click, you can add stunning photo effects and stylish border designs.
We provide the image editor for free through the Loop Collective CMS platform because we believe image editing should be a seamless part of the website building experience. Why should you be directed to a 3rd party service or need to load Photoshop to make basic edits? Well, now you don’t have to! |
