The
City of Lufkin is now providing free web
hosting for selected nonprofit organizations that provide civic services and
information to the citizens of Lufkin and Angelina County.
The web
hosting will be on a space available basis and resides on a web server in
City Hall. The organization must request the hosting service
and provide details as to information and services provided. The
request will be reviewed to ensure that it is appropriate.
The organization will be responsible for purchasing
domain names, and publishing content to the site. The use
of FrontPage is required and FTP is no longer supported. The City of Lufkin will
configure the site on the server free of charge. This service is
available now and will provide fast, high quality, banner free websites for
deserving organizations. Interested organizations should request the
hosting service from the
Webmaster. The
webmaster will process the request and notify the
requesting organization as to approval. The City of Lufkin reserves
the right to terminate this service if the site contains any objectionable
or commercial material.
All websites must be commercial
free and "Under Construction" websites are not allowed.
Websites will only be hosted when the content is available.
Selected pages can be "under construction" but not the whole site.
The City is now hosting over 30
non-profit sites. These sites all perform a service to the
citizens of Lufkin and Angelina County. The organizations are
listed on the sidebar with links to their sites.
We have recently upgraded the
server which hosts the sites. The sites are virus protected
and will support streaming video. |
