Web site hosting
and development services.

Site hosting options are either Basic or Premium.

Site development ranges from basic text-only home pages, to very large comprehensive sites. We will work with you to develop a site that meets your needs.


WEB SITE HOSTING SERVICES

BASIC HOSTING
$30 per month / $75 one time set-up

Our Basic hosting service provides you with password-protected FTP access to our dual-processor Pentium Pro 200MHz server 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Once the initial set-up is complete, any consultations or additional services are billed at $75 per hour.

  • DO-IT-YOURSELF - Learn HTML to develop your own site, and we'll host it for you. For this hosting option, you need some knowledge of the Internet and FTP, as the set-up fee does not cover consultation.
  • MIRROR - If you already have a site somewhere else, mirror a copy on our server. For this hosting option, you need some knowledge of the Internet, HTML and FTP, as the set-up fee does not cover consultation.
  • MINI - If you want to start with a simple presence on the Web, we can set up and host a home page of up to 500 words of text.

PREMIUM HOSTING
$50 per month / $75 one time set-up minimum

Our Premium hosting service applies to all sites other than the three types described above. The monthly hosting fee includes a quarter hour of consultations and/or site edits each month (not cumulative). This is generally enough time to make minor edits or add an article or two to your site. Any additional consultations or services are billed at $75 per hour.

Optional services that will increase the Premium monthly hosting fee are Domain Name Service (DNS) and/or Email Forwarding. If you are interested in registering a custom domain name and/or forwarding email, please inquire. Our rates for these services are very competitive.

There also may be additional charges for excessively large sites (over two megabytes) and excessively busy sites. To date, no sites have surpassed those thresholds.

WEB SITE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES

Site development cost depends entirely on the complexity of the site. Instead of offering preconfigured packages, as we did in the past, we will help you assess your needs, and then tailor a site to suit your individual firm. To make the process easier, we offer three examples of typical sites that you may select from if you choose. Please see the list of content and services below for an idea of what you may wish to include in your site.

For information, or to schedule a consultation, please call (301-589-7766), fax (301-589-9798), send email to webmaster@hake.com, or use our inquiry form. We look forward to helping you establish a successful presence on the Internet!
