1 year non-profit paid in advance : $60
1 year personal static site++ : $30
++ A personal static site is one with no database, no streaming, storage space is 500GB, bandwidth 5GB, 1 FTP, 2 email, no subdomains.
Each account is shared hosting and resolves to a single, primary domain name. If you have a second domain you’d like to also resolve to the same space we can do that for no extra charge.
On the technical side, these are shared *nix based servers running Apache and featuring PHP, MySQL, cgi-bin (Perl 5.8) and Ruby on Rails support.
Among the many popular web apps that are supported on this framework are WordPress, phpBB, Coppermine Photo Gallery, Joomla, Drupal to name but a few.

‘Web Development’ is a catch-all phrase that includes site design (layout, graphics, etc.) and backend development (scripts, database, etc.). A few years ago putting together a web site was mostly about the design. Getting the color combinations working together, creating a logo and graphics, laying out the page and creating the text. Today’s web site still requires the design but often needs the programming and database to satisfy the many requirements users have come to expect. Unfortunately this type of development usually requires a team of designers and programmers and can often cost well over $10,000.
Small Business
Small businesses and non-profits can’t afford that. The good news is most don’t need a web site requiring that level of development. We understand that and promise we won’t upsell you what you don’t need and can’t afford.
Fortunately platforms such as WordPress exist today. With a system such as WordPress you can have a web site with enough backend that allows you the freedom to manage and update your web site without breaking the bank. That’s where we can help. We have experience hosting, installing, modifying, and contributing to WordPress. We can design a template specifically for your WordPress site that is unique and represents you without looking like a generic template.
From The Ground Up
WordPress (and similar systems) are not for everyone. You might need a web site with only a few pages that rarely has to be updated. Or maybe a basic web site and you prefer someone else keep it updated for you because you’re not comfortable doing it yourself. Or you want to be able to update only certain areas of your web site while the rest doesn't need to change. We can help you!Solutions
We offer solutions for small business and organizations. Are you tired of trying to figure out how to build your own web site? Not happy with the time you’re pouring into it verses the results you’re getting? You don’t have to fight it any longer. We have your affordable option. Contact us today.About Pricing
No matter what we do the price remains the same. At the outset of a development project we will sit down with you, discuss your needs and present you with a development quote detailing the work to be done and the estimated amount of time we expect it to take. We don't believe in contracts for ongoing services unless that is what you require. We do the work, you pay, done!Genealogy / Family Web Sites

Web Hosting Limitations
We strive to give each client the utmost in care and attention, yet we’re a small company with limited resources. For that reason we are limited in what we’re able to offer our clients. If you need more, please find a host that can offer what you need.- We operate within the confines of normal business day hours unless an emergency demands otherwise. This means we can’t provide 24 hour support.
- We invoice annually with no option for monthly payments. This helps keep our rates low and makes life easier for us all.
- Limited phone support. We currently utilize email or IM for the majority of all support issues, unless a phone call is deemed necessary at our discretion. We aren’t trying to avoid your call and concerns, we’re just really busy doing the work we do.
- We do not presently offer a Windows server option which means we can not support FrontPage, .NET, .ASP, or other Microsoft based technologies. If you would like to convert an existing web site from FrontPage to run on a *NIX server we’ll be glad to quote the job for you as a separate cost.
- No root level server access. If you need something done from a root level please contact us.
- No reseller accounts.
- No redundancy. Your site, data and email are on one server only. If it goes down we’ll get it back up ASAP.
- Only limited backups. It is your responsibility to keep backups of your site and data.
- No guaranteed uptime. Oh we’re up generally all of the time (over 99%), but with something as complex as the Internet, outages happen. We make no phony claims on percentage of uptime that can’t accurately be measured anyway.
Honest Web Development Terms
Why use the word ‘honest’? To quote the great Canadian band Rush, ‘you can’t get something for nothing’. Meaning, the cost of web development can be a confusing obfuscation of ‘free’ features that are actually built in to ongoing monthly maintenance charges that you may never use or need, yet are obligated by the development contract to pay for. Instead, we itemize. We show you what you’re paying for and once the development cycle is over, the charges end. When you need updates down the road that’s all you pay for.We also don’t advertise a set price for a 2 or 3 or 5 or 10 page web site. Why? It’s not honest or fair for any of us. If you need a site with a lot graphics or a large database we’re not going to try and talk you out of it because you signed up for a $95 package. It’s also false advertising to sell you that $95 package only to surprise you later with extra charges due to extensive development time ‘not covered’ in the $95 package.
Honesty.
