Simple Content Management Hosting

In addition to development costs there is the ongoing hosting. SelectEdit hosting options include standard hosting for $75 per month (100MB of disc space and 1 GB of bandwidth) and Urchin traffic reports.

Because some clients are not familiar with the difference between application hosting (which is what is needed for a database driven continent management site) and static hosting (simply FTPing HTML files to a server) we also offer SelectEdit static hosting for $20 per month. Static hosting does not allow for real time content management using NewfangledCMS. We have found that once we explain the difference between static and application hosting and our clients see the value of being able to control content, the slightly higher application hosting cost is well worth it to them. For more information on the difference between static and application hosting see our hosting pricing page.

The SelectEdit pricing model is designed to provide extensive content management capabilities at an extremely affordable price. While we could have gone the route of turning SelectEdit into one more "wizard" based system where you pay your $49.95 and crazy-go-nuts with your website, we believe that providing a technology is simply not enough to help a client make effective use of a website. Proving technology does not mean that users will make good websites. So instead, we have simplified the development and design process so that the cost of a SelectEdit website goes in large part toward the personal interaction between the client and a skilled developer and designer.
