Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, we do.  Complete the Website Request form, upload all content and images, and we will build you a standard custom website using the information you submit (regularly $474).  We also provide 30 minutes of training to teach you how to make updates to your website.  If you prefer us to make ongoing updates, we can certainly do that.

We like helping people.  We recognize that it's not always easy to use the website builders that are on the market.  Sometimes the websites do not turn out as you expect.  Sometimes you get hit with added costs.  We just want to help you over that hurdle.  Large corporations have no problem spending lots of money to have a custom website built, but small businesses, nonprofits, community groups, churches, private school programs, and individuals can not always afford to pay the cost of a new website.  That is why we build and teach people to maintain their own websites.  Our goal is to teach skills that empower people to be self-sufficient. 

You have 14 days to make a decision.  If we do not hear from you within 14 days, we will assume you do not want the website and we will take it down.  It will be deleted.  If you accept our offer, you must agree to the hosting fee or else your website will be deactivated and then deleted. 

We will use the PayPal Buy Now button if you have a few simple products that do not have options (i.e. - size, color, etc.) or require inventory, shipping, and tax configurations.  

If you have products that require configurations, the $50 website can be upgraded to include an online store.  The cost of the website upgrade is $499 and the monthly hosting is $29.99.  You will gain the ability to have a shopping cart where you can sell physical and digital products, set flexible shipping options, give discounts and promotions, manage inventory, and accept credit cards, debit cards, PayPal and more.

We will help you with the next steps.

1. Pay the $50 cost of the website.
2. Select a domain name (www. YourWebsite.com).  Either register a new one or transfer an existing one.  Let us know and we will publish your website to your selected domain name.  
3. Pay the hosting fee of $9.99 to keep your website live on the internet.  
4. Schedule your 30 minutes of free training to learn how to make updates to your website.

Yes, we do.   We are a team of skilled web designers and developers.   We've been building websites from scratch for more than twenty years.  WordPress is the website tool of choice for many Fortune 500 companies and when creating custom websites we often use the WordPress platform.

Not a problem.  We enjoy helping people and we happily provide 30-minute training classes with the $50 Website promotion.   We also offer hourly training classes and four-hour training days.  A website trainer will meet with you on a video call to walk you through the different parts of your website.  They will teach you how to make updates, create new pages, add images, and more.  They will also show you how to access your portal.  This is your time and we will address any questions you may have.  If time permits, the website trainer can make updates to your website on the spot.  Schedule your training.

Absolutely.  We have website maintenance packages that include checking your website for issues and also providing regular updates to keep your website fresh.  We can make updates and check your website on a recurring basis weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly.  You can also reach out to us when you need us and pay hourly. 

The Free Website package was our 2022 promotion.  It expired on December 31, 2022.

We began operations in 1996 as a technology consulting resource for nonprofits, churches, small businesses, and organizations that help disadvantaged children and adults. In 2018, we began to see the difficulties many people were having while attempting to build websites.  We started teaching website education which led to our new business model of building and teaching website independence.  The focus of UOP remains consistent with the desire to provide quality services and lifelong relationships.
