History

PageCloud was founded in 2014 and officially launched in May 2015 by Craig Fitzpatrick at TechCrunch Disrupt.[3] For seed funding he relied on investments from other software entrepreneurs, including Shopify CEO Tobias Lütke. Fitzpatrick created the initial software after the sale of previous startup Source Metrics, where he became frustrated with how difficult it was to build and run a website.[1] During its pre-sale period, the company surpassed $1 million in pre-orders, selling more than 11,000 licenses before the platform was made publicly available.[4]

Fundraising

In November 2016, PageCloud closed a $4 million Series A round, bringing the company's funding total to about $8.5 million. The company has grown to have over 15,000 paying users from 130 countries.[5]

Features

PageCloud provides fully customizable templates and a drag and drop HTML website builder that includes apps, graphics, image galleries, fonts, and more. Additionally, PageCloud features a customizable mobile editor that allows users to optimize their sites for mobile viewing.[6]

Integrations

PageCloud offers integrations with third-party apps for functions like E-commerce and live chat.[7]
