NAP Web Hosting Service
 The Internet—and the World Wide Web in particular—is an increasingly important communication tool for organizations who need to provide information about their mission, activities, and services to members and potential members.
Many NAP associations and units would like to add a website to their set of communication tools, but do not have members with the skills or software needed to design, develop, and maintain a website. Purchasing these skills and services from other professionals can be expensive, particularly for ongoing maintenance of the site. In response to this challenge, the NAP communications committee developed a solution that allows constituent divisions to maintain web pages using only a web browser and basic computer skills. Members with more skills and resources, such as a digital camera, can add photographs or downloadable documents or forms.
Each association or unit may assign up to three website editors, each of whom can edit text on the site, choose from among several color schemes and text styles, select the best page layouts to present information, and update photos or documents. Download the user manual to learn more about the web hosting service.
 Sample Sites
Look at two sample websites to see some of the features that the web hosting service includes. The sample association site includes four pages with different types of information. All of these pages are public. The sample unit site has one page that is visible to the general public, and one page that is only available to NAP members logged into the site.
Pricing and enrollment
The web hosting package for associations is priced at $50 per year, and includes up to five web pages, 30 pictures, and 20 documents. The package for units is priced at $25 per year, and includes up to two pages, 15 pictures, and 10 documents. The fee may be paid online or by check.
To subscribe, complete the web hosting service enrollment form. After you complete the form, there will be a short turnaround time while the website is set up. Finally, a welcome email will be sent to the website editors you identified during the subscription process.
