We can implement a family history website for you, using genealogy software named webtrees. With this software you can create and change the content of your website without having to edit HTML or learn any other programming language. Read some online reviews of webtrees.
Webtrees is great for working with your relatives to keep your family tree up-to-date, registered users can propose updates and changes to the information on your website. You can either accept or reject these changes. Also, privacy is very important and webtress includes built-in privacy settings so you can control the information about living people that visitors can view. For more detailed information about shared research and security see the webtrees features.
A showcase of webtrees sites is available. Also a webtrees site implemented by Wizard Web Works can be seen here.
To implement a webtrees website for you, we offer these options: basic, advanced and complete.
Basic – initial price £200 – we will install the webtrees software using the supplied webtrees themes without any modification. After the first year there will be an annual fee of £60 for maintaining the website (i.e. installing updates to webtrees, backups of your website, etc). What’s included?
- We implement the webtrees software on your webspace.
- The cost includes an Emerald webspace plan and a .uk domain name (£5 extra per annum for a .com domain).
