I started working on Cow Sites as an attempt to get people to migrate off of Instagram. I wanted people, especially creatives, to have their own personal websites rather than a stripped-down version of their personality that's been casted to fit Instagram's silo.
Website makers are plenty, but none of them is serving my goal of making personal websites as accessible as possible. They are all amazing for complex, featureful websites; not for an easy way to put your art out on the web.
What sets Cow Sites apart is the simplicity, which is only possible because I chose to omit many features in order to keep the interface intuitive and focused. I've implemented only what I deem essential for an artist that needs a portfolio site. If you're enjoying using Cow Sites, it's probably because of what I didn't add ;]
