ISV Summer Campaign : Leveraging the Web

The holidays are just about to end, but there's still time to boost your knowledge or learn something totally new.

Durint these 2 weeks we'll be giving the fourth and final topic of this summer issue their place in the sun, namely the Web and the web browser. Click through and you'll find all the best resources, presented based on the amount of time you want to spend on it.

Explore and dive into Web solutions

What is the most used application on a computer nowadays? Most likely it will be the web browser.  The Web and the web browser have quickly become a user's natural habitat, a familiar environment, and with Web 2.0, a place to work, interact and play.

You as an independent software vendor (ISV) can take advantage of this in many ways.  The Web provides you a marketing platform to reach out to millions of potential customers for your application.  In that case, you will want to fully show the beauty of the web on your website to stand out and attract these customers.

On the other hand, you can use the Web as your application platform to build web applications or to extend your desktop application with existing web services (e.g. mapping unctionality, social media integration, etc.) to augment your core application usiness value.

Have  look at our website and discover a handpicked choice of articles, white papers nd videos explaining what Microsoft web technologies can bring to you as an ISV.
