Before I answer questions on bandwidth and storage needs, I would want to know more \
about what they plan to do with the web site and what content they want to post.

Subject: [EXTERNAL][WEB4LIB] Web site builder - checklist


Hi my esteemed listmates,

I'm so sorry for the barrage but now that our library is in another stage of opening \
we have a plethora of issues we're addressing.

Our "Friends of the Library" NPO wants to have a Web site.

They are great people but not that tech oriented so I've narrowed down their web site \
builder and hosting choices as follows:

1 Wix
2 SquareSpace
3 Go Daddy
4 Wordpress.com

Have you developed any Web sites or helped your "Friends of the Library" with their \
Web sites?

If so, might you please share any checklist for features, functions, factors to \
consider in choosing a Web site builder/host?

Ex. How much bandwidth - storage space needed? Has SSL certificate?

I've Googled this and there doesn't seem to be any "vetting" organization which \
shares checklists of what to look for in a web site builder/hosting co.

I found "reviews" but each reviewer seems to have a leaning - e.g. WordPress \
preferences, Wix choice, etc. so the reviews seeme a tad skewed.

Thank you so much!

Best,

Charles.
