Provides the ability to connect with other developers and designers for discussions, advice and tips.

Network Solutions, an ICANN accredited registrar and web hosting provider, today unveiled LinkTogether, a community created specifically for Web designers and developers. The company avers that currently in beta, LinkTogether.com is a place for the Web developer community to grow business, leverage tools to increase productivity, and save money on products and services.

It explains that LinkTogether members are provided the opportunity to win more work by creating a profile on the site, which in turn allows Web designers, developers and other professionals to display portfolios of their work. Each profile is optimized to be found by searches on that member's services and expertise. The company avers that once a member has joined, he or she can download apps, Web site templates and other items shared by others in the community. Members can post their own original content for peer review, it adds.

"LinkTogether is free to join and there's so much to take advantage of," said Warren Smith, Product Director at Network Solutions. "In my spare time, I run my own Web design agency so I can verify the usefulness of the tools offered and possible connections to be made in a Web developer community like this one. "One of the major benefits of LinkTogether is the ability to connect with other developers and designers for discussions, advice and tips," Smith added. "Members can also increase their own knowledge base with educational resources that include whitepapers and video tutorials, and improve client conversations using the site's Smart Guides and professional educational videos."
