Review: Create stunning websites in minutes for free with Tackk

March 28, 2013

Every once in a while, I come across a service that leaves me speechless. This is exactly what happened when I first started using Tackk: It took my breath away. Tackk is a free website maker currently in beta, and will help you create any single-page website (or Tackks) in minutes. Choose between multiple fonts and add as many images as you want to your page. Not only is it free, but if you don't mind your website expiring after seven days, you don't even have to sign up. Just point your browser to tackk.com and start editing your new page. It's going to be beautiful, too, regardless of your skills—there's simply no other way with Tackk. If you decide to go for a free account, you'll get Tackks that never expire, the ability to create multiple Tackks, give them custom URLs, and include contact forms. All other features are available to everyone, and anonymously. To help you get started, Tackk comes with five different themes: Anything, Events, Housing, For Sale, Announce, and Business. Each one comes with the features you're most likely to use on the page, but you can add and remove elements as you please. After choosing a theme, use the Editor on the right to choose your color, headline font, and background texture. Remember when I said your website is going to be beautiful? This is due to the delicate balance of freedoms and limitations that Tackk provides. You can choose any color you want (there are almost 100 to choose from), but once that's done, it sets the color scheme for your entire page. When it comes to your headings, sub-headings, and buttons, you only get to choose from 3-4 colors that go well with your background. The weak point of this feature is links, which always take the background's color, and may become almost invisible when using dark backgrounds.
