A Low-Cost, Full-Featured Website You Control
Free web tools are available, but none of them offer you the custom flexibility and automated functions EasyNetSites does. With EasyNetSites you can have a full-featured website at a price any budget-conscious society can easily afford. Plus, just one of our application’s features--the ability to distribute newsletters to all your members in a single blast email--can save you enough money in printing and postage to pay for itself in a few months.
Each EasyNetSite is custom-built to your specific needs using modular components. You get to choose exactly what features you want to include. And every page of your organization’s site has built-in editing functions that allow you to control the precise content with type and click ease.
Our standard page features include:
Home
You can have this all-important gateway to your site professionally updated using your existing logo and color scheme. Several design options are available, from basic color palettes to fully animated Flash graphics. Then, using our hassle-free Article Editor, you have the flexibility to create and insert as many articles as you wish. Web-savvy customers may also enjoy hand coding and styling the page by taking advantage of the convenient HTML editor we’ve included.
About
This page allows you to insert up to two articles and is geared to display the leadership of your organization. The names and titles of your officers will display automatically as defined in your system if an operating year is used. Otherwise only the written articles you insert will appear. If no articles are written, no display is available.
Area Deaths
The Area Deaths module provides a searchable database driven interface for death notices and obituaries. It collects data about the person, where the notice was published and dates of publication.
Cemetery Records
The Cemetery records database is a powerful tool to collect data about cemeteries in your area and the persons who are interred in them. The module has data fields for personal data, birth, death and interrment information. You can add pictures to records as well.
Contact
This page allows a message to be sent directly to any listed Officer or Chairperson without their personal email ever being displayed. A general “Web Contact Form” is also available by clicking the designated area.
Events
Using our simple Events Editor, just type in your start and end times, dates, event title, location, description, presenter name and contact information to see it neatly appear on your webpage. You can also attach external files like flyers, registration forms and maps with ease. All past events are automatically cleared on a day to day basis. Page views may be filtered according to user-defined categories and timeframes. Plus, you can create a special events panel that displays up to three events in a sidebar on your homepage (or any other page) to keep visitors informed.
Facts
Here is where you can create and present brief but helpful information such as a “Tips & Tricks” sidebar that displays in a prominent area of your website.

A place for your members to be able to post, inquire of, and share with each other. The easy-to-use, flat style Forums can have Topics that are either publically available or private for members only viewing. Only members may write messages to any forum.
Library
Two articles can be inserted here to provide information about your collection and its use. All library materials may be classified into user-defined categories and are sortable and searchable by Call Number, Title or Author. The system allows duplicate entries of any item that spans mutiple categories, but only one entry will appear if the “All Books” button is selected. A large volume of records can be easily handled with the paging tool. You can also create PDF book lists based on your screen display.
Links
All live links to other websites can be categorized for easy review and, when clicked, always appear in a separate browser window to keep your site constantly available to the viewer.
