First of all Kudos for providing technical support to the organisation. I would advise you to advise them to find USD 60 for a domain name and domain hosting. USD 10 for .org domain name, USD 50 for the domain hosting. Both are annual costs. USD 60 = KSH 4800 (thanks to the very weak dollar!) Even a grassroot of grassroot NGO should be able to afford that especially when you consider it is such a clever investment. Hook it up with Google Apps Standard edition (free) and all of a sudden you have a domain and professional email accounts accessible anywhere there is net and a professional look and feel. Remember even non profits are in competition, for people's time and attention and not just their money. Why should I take another look at your NGO instead of any of the thousands that are out there? In my experience I have encountered new grassroot NGOs who spend over 5k in PHOTOCOPYING a 20 page strategic plan to distribute! Others spend over 50k on brand new office equipment (such photocopiers, whiteboards, and those machines for binding reports). It is a question of prorities. KSH 5000 for a domain and hosting is a wise investment for even the smallest NGO! On Wed, Sep 23, 2009 at 9:14 AM, kevin gichuhi <kevzdegich@gmail.com> wrote:

There are numerous companies that can register a .org for USD 10 for example http://www.namecheap.com/ charge USD 9.69 http://www.godaddy.com/ charge USD 10.69 if you google for offers get "namecheap september offer" you can find a code that would drop the price a dollar or 2. Again with hosting there are numerous companies that offer hosting for USD 50. For example: http://www.asmallorange.com/hosting/shared/ Put the email on a Standard (free) Google Apps account instead of using the domain host to store your emails is what I would suggest. How do you pay: well you would pay the companies directly. There is another thread running that shows which VISA electron (our normally ATM cards not credit cards) that can be used to make these payments. No need to deal with the middle men. However, if you do want someone to make the payment for you you can try Afripay.com based on Chaka Road in Hurlingham although they charge some hefty fees (add around 10%-20% to your order) There is no 'offer' here just highlighting some options. This is what is avaliable out there for us to utilise. The examples I have posted above are but a drop in the ocean of domain registratrion and hosting. Of course there are other examples / other ways of doing things. YMMV, do not test on pets etc etc On Wed, Sep 23, 2009 at 2:12 PM, Solomon Mburu <solo.mburu@gmail.com> wrote:
