Cuyahoga County for Liberty (CC4L)
Ken lives in Cuyahoga County, in northeastern Ohio. He is also a member of the national Campaign for Liberty organization, which assists local political campaigns which espouse pro-liberty ideals. It was a natural fit, then, when the local affiliate, Cuyahoga County for Liberty, put out a call for volunteers to design and build their own website.
Using WordPress as the foundational platform, we added the BuddyPress layered product to give CC4L the social networking aspects they wanted to incorporate into their web presence. In addition to the construction of their site, we also registered their domain name and are hosting their site on our own WebHost4Life servers.

Pennsylvania Wine Society
Back in 2004, Ken was doing a variety of business software development projects, using the name “Solutions .NET Corporation” and a colleague of his, at this time, happened to be on the board of directors for the Pennsylvania Wine Society and asked him to put together a community website for their group.
Because they are very event-oriented, they needed a flexible event scheduling and registration system. Dan helped with the graphic design work for the site, creating a custom banner and complementary color palette. The site was built on the Microsoft SharePoint platform, with a public site and a private administrators only site.
At the time, we were not offering ongoing hosting administration services, so the Pennsylvania Wine Society is running their own hosting plan with WebHost4Life. If you would like to visit their site, please browse to http://www.winesocietypa.org/.
Providence Baptist Church
Once again, our father thought of us, when his church decided they needed a new website to replace their old, static website. They did not wish to pay their site developer every time they wanted to update the content on their site, so we found a content management system that suited their needs, called Cuyahoga.
Our first task was to recreate the content from their original website, but with a brand new, custom theme. Then, we built a custom podcasting module that automatically pulls the ID3 tags from the MP3 files of their recorded sermons, and presents them for their users to browse. Finally, we created a private, members only portal for their church members to use for online fellowship.
To simplify the maintenance of their site, Providence chose to host with us on WebHost4Life, and we assisted them with the timely migration of their domain name from their old hosting provider to GoDaddy for easier DNS management.

02/15/2010 Update: Providence Baptist has a new pastor who has decided that he'd like to handle the website for his church on his own. We no longer have anything to do with this site.
