I’m excited to announce a new program -
WebsiteSpark - that Microsoft is launching today.
WebsiteSpark is designed for independent web developers and web development companies that build web applications and web sites on behalf of others. It enables you to get software, support and business resources from Microsoft at no cost for three years, and enables you to expand your business and build great web solutions using ASP.NET, Silverlight, SharePoint and PHP, and the
open source applications built on top of them.
What does the program provide?

- 3 licenses of Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition

- 2 licenses of Expression Web 3
- 4 processor licenses of Windows Web Server 2008 R2
