DevHub, which launches to the public today, promises a faster, better, cheaper solution to commercial web publishing. A product of EVO Media Group, the site offers a free way, with optional paid services, to build dynamic websites in minutes by leveraging their hosting, programming, reporting, and monetization channels.
Getting started is pretty simple, just enter the domains you want to "DevHub" and you'll be able to build a complex site including your original content, content from DevHub's internet partners like CareerBuilder and Superpages, and money-making tools through their affiliate networks. Within the editor, pages can be created on-the-fly, and each page can be enhanced with either drag-and-drop text, image, or embed modules that serve as content blocks on your site.
DevHub also comes complete with a reporting dashboard tracking visitor stats across all of your web properties. And if affiliate marketing is your thing, you can select from the available add-ons to monetize your newly generated web hub and DevHub will do the revenue tracking for you.
With DevHub being free to use, site development taking 5 - 10 minutes, and dynamic drag-and-drop modules for easy building, DevHub definitely appears to deliver on the faster, better, cheaper promise. Given the service's ability to host, program, and monetize sites instantaneously, we can envision a myriad of use cases - some not so savory like glorified domain parking (to generate ad revenue) and others more respectable like niche information resources - for DevHub's platform.
