General features
- Drupal (foundation & framework)
- Drupal is the foundation of these sites. It is a Content Management System and a Website Building Framework.
- Drupal's modular architecture enables it to be expanded by community-contributed modules. Thousands are available at drupal.org. Your site can be completely customized to your unique needs as they evolve.
- Drupal provides a solid foundation. This same system is used by Sony BMG, Yahoo Research, IncBizNet.com, NowPublic.com, wfp.org, fastcompany.com, popsci.com, and interlochen.org, to list a few big names.
- It's 100% yours!
- You are in control of all content. Update text and images, add pages and products at any time.
- Installable on your own compatible server, or I can recommend some hosts.
- No vendor lock-in. You can update the codebase, or take the site to another host or developer if you want.
Extras
- Domain Registration, $11.50 per year
- Ongoing security updates to the codebase, $60/year (highly highly recommended. If you don't have me do this, be sure someone stays caught up on security updates.)
- Additional consulting and customization, $80 per hour. (first month included for free)
About me and this service
I have been developing web sites for a wide range of clients for more then a decade. Many nonprofits, churches, and small businesses have difficulty obtaining a respectable, affordable, and flexible web site. I have put together this service package as a means to lower the cost of entry for these organizations launching their first site, one that starts strong and has the flexibility to grow as their needs grow.
