quotesWeb Design and Hosting for Schools:

Many schools are looking to have staff maintain their website to reduce costs.  Content Management Systems are a perfect solution way to remove the web maintenance costs. 
Bayside Solutions can get your school site up on the beating track and provide you with all the training you need.  You will be happily editing your site within the first hour of logging in.  All websites come delivered with links to online training videos to assist you in the editing of your site.


Earn Money for your School:

We can set up advertsing areas on your school website.  You can earn money per click on what ever sort of advertising you choose and/or if you already have sponsors for your school and would like to advertise on your site for them, this can all be included in the package.  Reports can be generated from the school website to show page impressions and clicks made to the advertisements for each of your client advertisers that is set up.  Using GoogleAds or any other script based clicking is also possible.  Just ask.

 

 

Onsite Training:

Bayside Solutions has provided training sessions to groups and individuals to speed up the understanding  of how their website can function and to assist in them quickly getting to know how to edit their website with confidence.  Even the least computer savy staff members can update a website using the content management systems we provide.

Bayside Solutions has worked with schools to upgrade their existing websites, provide faster, more secure hosting and train staff on a one to one or group basis.

Keep your School's website up to date for the following reasons:

  • Maintain a strong presence on the internet
  • To attract new students to your school
  • To inform students, teachers and parents about the current events occuring in the school
  • To push toward newsletter and other document distribution via the internet, reducing printing costs
  • Provide online school calanders, event booking systems, wikis and other important communicative elements for the school
  • Provide an advertising medium for your sponsors or to earn money per click to raise funds for the school

Schools quite often require nominated volunteers to update their website. With most of the available volunteers having very little webdesign experience, our content management systems ( CMS ) are easy to use and enable more than one user to update your website at any one time. Furthermore, you will require no extra tools other than a web browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, Netscape or Safari) to do so. No more developers and no more web development tools, means no further development costs. Once delivered, it is your internet site to edit and update as you please with no ongoing costs other than your hosting and domain costs with your provider (which could be us if you so choose).
