Building a Web site

Make your club visible

A great way to share information about the amazing community service your club is conducting is to create a website where you can promote everything the club is doing.  You’ll increase your visibility within the school and community. 
Here are some ideas to help you create your own K-Kids club website.

Hosting a site

Attach your K-Kids website as a subdirectory to their school's Web site. Contact your schools administration or technical support staff for this option.

Look into community websites, which offer free or reduced-rate space to nonprofit or service groups.

Explore free hosts that do not charge for hosting a club's Web site. Most attach advertisements to the clubs website in return for this service. (tripod.net, angelfire.com or shutterfly.com)

Pay a monthly fee to a local Internet provider to host your site.

Here's an example of a Builders Club website created on Shutterfly: FJH CSC Builders Club
