Pay Pal is making their API more E-Commerce friendly
We all know how important Pay Pal has become for anybody doing business on the web. All Web Piston based platforms are integrated with Pay Pal so we follow what they do closely.
They have recently announced they are making their API more flexible and easy to integrate with E-Commerce solutions. So what does that mean to you as website owner?
We will be able to more seamlessly integrate their payment gateway into our technologies to provide visitors with an even better shopping experience. Our development team is currently looking at the new API and how we are going to integrate into Web Piston and Web Piston Store.

Domain Renewal Group is a SCAM!
It is disturbing to see companies like Domain Renewal Group operating in the United States. I just got a letter sent home from them referencing one of my Web Piston website’s domain. They say the domain is going to expire and that I should send them $30.
BEWARE of the SCAM. At Web Piston we renew your domains automatically. You do not need to renew it. If you fall for the scam, they register your domain and they become your registrar. Can we raise some awareness about this?
I found many articles online about them:

Clearly explains the scam: http://www.davidrisley.com/2008/11/03/screw-you-domain-renewal-group/

If you get any letters like the one I got I highly recommend you disregard them.
Thanks.
Web Piston Summer 09 News
Dear Pistonites,
I hope all is well. There are some great things going on at Web Piston. We are hiring more developers to join the Web Piston team so we can build awesome new functionality that will allow you to market your site more effectively. To do so, we are adding integration with local search engines and Facebook.
Furthermore, we are beefing up the Web Piston Store to offer more ecommerce tools and integration.
We have a new project under way that will improve the functionality and power of your site tremendously. We are working hard at it and can not divulge much as we go, but I can tell you this, we will give you the tools and infrastructure to make the best looking most powerful site you could ever dream of!
Our driving motto for 2009 has been:
We are in the Business of Delivering Business!
Our goal is to allow you to not only build a great looking site but also give you the tools to market it and close sales leads. We are incorporating sales tools into Web Piston, your own Customer Relationship Management system, so you can maximize your sales efforts.
We are also building Word Of Mouth tools directly into Web Piston to allow you to market your site through your customers.
We plan on releasing these changes incrementally and you should start seeing some of these changes as early as August.
I hope all is well,

Web Piston and Facebook Integration
We are working hard at building a Web Piston Facebook integration. We are going to allow our site owners to share their site with their friends whenever they publish by posting a story to their Facebook wall. Furthermore, we are going to allow their clients to leave testimonials on their site through Facebook Connect that their friends will see to promote our clients’ products and services.
We are going to set up a new service in which we set up a Facebook page for our clients and integrate their news and offers with Web Piston.
Our goal is to allow our small business clients to interact with Facebook and its millions of users in a seamless and powerful way. We will integrate with Facebook so you can share your site as you are building your own website.

Welcome to the Web Piston Blog!
Dear Visitor,
Welcome to our Blog. I am Ricardo Lasa, the CEO of Web Piston. The purpose of this blog is to keep you posted with the development of Web Piston and establish a channel of communication with our users and website owners.
As a business owner, I will post primarily about what we are doing to help your website drive more business. Or company mission is: “Making the Internet Work for You”. Our 2009 guiding force is to “Deliver Business to YOU”.
I think we have done a pretty good job at providing a website builder that guides non technical users through creating an extremely professional and useful website. We have now the same determination and focus to build marketing and sales tools that will help you take full advantage of the Internet to grow your business.
We are currently working on a Web Piston and Facebook integration so you can use Facebook to promote your products and services in a very non-intrusive and professional manner.
Furthermore, I am going to Google for a meeting next week to learn even more about Google AdWords campaign optimization. I will pass on the knowledge to the community.
Welcome to our blog!
Ricardo Lasa
CEO
