For those not aware of the initiative, WebsiteSpark is a program that was launched last September. A sister program to Microsoft BizSpark, WebsiteSpark is for independent Web developers and designers, or small companies with fewer than 10 employees who do contract work and build client’s Web sites/Web apps, like an outsourced dev shop. WebsiteSpark provides these Web Pros with extremely low cost MS development tools, and new business leads – customers who need work done, who are passed to WebsiteSpark Web Pros.
WebsiteSpark is a three year program involving a $100 fee, which is payable upon program exit.
