Welcome to the Q&A Forum

I'm trying to make a case at work to bring it in-house so we can have fresh content on the site.  We're also paying the company $100 to host & don't have high traffic so I know we can pay much less -- and get a nonprofit rate in some cases.

I'm hoping to collect comments like these and take them back to work.

I definitely understand a web developer wanting to set limits with clients. I have heard horror stories.

My frustration is that we can't add new content or new pages.  Our quote to integrate the blog with the existing site was $5,000 so we're keeping it on blogger for now.

That's impressive with AdWords.  I've been managing our Google grants account with little success.  Part of me thinks it's because we don't have a whole lot of action steps on our site.  It's not clear what a visitor is supposed to do when they get there.

Thanks for the input.

Thanks.  I'll check out woorank

I work for a nonprofit org which of course means a low budget and paying out of pocket for things (such as training).

Our current website is done by a 3rd party vendor and although it looks nice, we can't make any changes to it without paying for it.  (We can only upload documents).

I'm wondering if anyone in this group will give their feedback on the site in terms of SEO and recommend a platform that would be relatively easy for a small shop to manage.

Our site is www.coastalcommunityfoundation.org

Thanks in advance
