Author Topic: Theatre Web Site providers Don Hallmark Film Handler Posts: 12 From: Andrews, TX. Registered: Nov 2005 posted 06-07-2006 08:27 PM                     Who do you use as a web site provider and what should I expect to pay? And, does that same provider get the information put on the other sites like Fandango and Yahoo Movies?  |  IP: Logged Anslem Rayburn Master Film Handler Posts: 476 From: Yuma, AZ, USA Registered: May 2002 posted 06-08-2006 07:18 AM                     We host with our local newspaper, and pay too much. As for Fandango, MovieTickets.com, et al, that is taken care of through our on-line ticket provider (PrintTixUSA).  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 06-08-2006 12:17 PM                        Ours is hosted through a local phone company. I think we pay $15 a month for hosting. I know I could get it a bit cheaper elsewhere, but this place is local and I'm on a first name basis with everyone there, so that means a lot to me. ...or were you asking about how much it would cost to have a site maintained by someone? I'd be interested in that figure, because a neighboring theatre has asked me about doing a site for them and I have no clue how much to charge for it. I'm no web expert that's for sure, but I can make a good basic site.  |  IP: Logged Dennis Benjamin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1445 From: Denton, MD Registered: Feb 2002 posted 06-08-2006 12:31 PM                        Try GoDaddy.com or Yahoo.com They are good to me.  |  IP: Logged Mike Spaeth Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1129 From: Marietta, GA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 06-08-2006 12:39 PM                        Ours is done through http://www.theaterwebsiteservices.com/  |  IP: Logged Scott Jentsch Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1061 From: New Berlin, WI, USA Registered: Apr 2003 posted 06-08-2006 03:24 PM                        Don, For a standard web site that doesn't get a large amount of traffic, you shouldn't have to pay much more than $10-$15 per month, depending on the features you need. This, of course, assumes that you are going to maintain the web site yourself or have someone do it for you. We provide a variety of services to theaters for web site hosting, design, and showtimes. I've sent you information via E-Mail about what The BigScreen Cinema Guide offers.  |  IP: Logged Jim Ziegler Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 753 From: West Hollywood, CA Registered: Jul 99 posted 06-26-2006 02:30 AM                     We are using a generic host - powweb.com - for our site. Haven't had any issues, and have a huge amount of storage and bandwidth to play with.  |  IP: Logged
