The bill for the current 12 months of my website came to £47.84. I use a
commercial host that many small businesses and organisations use and I
get a good service.
That website that, by universal acclaim, is the best QL website ever is
run more cheaply than I run mine. The host is Tony Firshman and I
understand the owner of the site gets a good service from him.
You missed out a line I think.
You are talking I am sure about Dilwyn's site.
I currently charge £18 per year plus VAT.
Seriously I did not know how much you charged him.
Last year Quanta spent £346 on its website, which is more than seven
times what I am paying.
Could someone please explain to me what Quanta is getting for this money
that I am not getting. And why, after spending so much members' money,
the Quanta website, apart from the news section, appears to have been at
a complete still stand for about 18 months,
Interesting question. I understand they use a content management system,
but if the site doesn't change, that seems superfluous!
They do use a content management system and that was the cause of numerous
technical problems - hence the dear host. As far as I know the technical
problems have been solved, but it seems that only one committee member is
giving the web administrator the support he needs,
Best Wishes,
Geoff
