Strikingly Creates Simple, Beautiful Web Sites in Minutes

What about businesses that aren't apps or "sexy?" Say an accounting firm or some other professional services. I always struggle to fill in the massive image requirements of the front page sliders of these kinds of templates for "boring" businesses. I don't think these businesses should be forgotten, though.

The editing interface is fantastic, nonetheless. Great job.

That's a great point. We actually have a lot of small businesses using Strikingly, including accounting and law firms. We realized that picking good images is a long and hard process, and we're building up an asset library with good images for people to choose from. Do you think this helps? Thanks a lot for the feedback!

I think providing large, quality images is above and beyond the call. Anything toward that is pure bonus IMO.

Awesome to hear that! It should be done soon.

I think the oversized image style is not always appropriate for "boring" professional services firms. Perhaps some themes with less dominant imagery on the front page?
