WPDemo.net is for WordPress theme designers and plugin developers that want to allow potential customers to test drive their WordPress plugins or themes before buying. With our service they can have separate/private & temporary demo WordPress sites (hosted by us) that users can try the themes and plugins both on the frontend and the backend with full admin access but without being able to download or modify any of the source code as users can’t install plugins/themes or edit them. By using our hosted product demo service they don’t risk somebody hacking into outdated demo sites and then getting into your main site and then causing all kinds of troubles.
