Non-Profit Web Hosting

With the internet every area of our social life has changed. In some cases it did not influence so much, but in some cases it improved the businesses and social initiatives dramatically. Charity organizations soon discovered that the most powerful tool for donations is internet with its cause portals and donation options. Non-governmental organizations have discovered an amazing way of spreading the ideas and looking for the volunteers. even business have got involved in various social entrepreneurship projects which are non-profit ones.
Non-profit activities is a perfect place for internet where social networks and online communities help spreading the causes and getting something done to improve some people lives. One of the modern trends in hosting business is Non-Profit Web hosting. Hosting companies are not charity organizations, however they can “donate” some free web hosting to the registered charity organizations or NGOs. The “donation” is usually done for the first year in order to observe the cause and effect. If the cause really helps people, the free hosting services are provided further. Non-profit web hosting is usually limited hosting which should be used only for the selected cause. Hosting companies cannot point the organizations what to do and how they should be working, therefore non-profit hosting is usually general web hosting plan, but not VPS hosting or some cloud hosting solutions. Of course, the big hosting plans can be used if the hosting company agree with the organization, but the market experience is limited to shared web hosting.

Why Host1Plus Offers Non-Profit Hosting

The main issue all non-profit organization meet all the time – small funding. Sometimes they need just a few dollars to start working in a full power. Host1Plus is ready to provide these few dollars and offer non-profit hosting. The web hosting plan is provided for registered organizations and initiatives worldwide. Host1Plus will be glad to provide the simple web hosting plan which is Mini Web hosting.

Why host1Plus provides the minimum plan? We believe, that trust should not be overused at least in the beginning. Donating a smallest plan allow us to be sure that cause is really good and working. After the first year of usage, we can have a chat and agree on further cooperation, but before that we need to be sure, that organization which we do not know is really non-profit one. There are so many fake organizations and charity incentives which overwhelm the real calls for help, therefore we have decided to take some precautions.

Host1Plus agree with the ideas that business should be more social in 21st age. Profit sharing is also important, especially for those who have limited resources and great ideas. Therefore Host1plus is adding non-profit aspect to its policy and vision. Only those who share can be respectable and trustworthy.

Host1Plus also believes that international hosting is the great place to host various non-profit projects which go outside the small country or group of people. International charity or non-profit projects can be a great example to more people, also attract more donations and volunteers from all over the world. Crowdsourcing makes such activities more meaningful and attracts more attention from media.
