Internet solutions for the social sector, small business, education, international development, and associations

... and artists, writers, musicians, or anyone who needs to build and maintain an effective internet presence.

We enable your organization to:

Manage your web site

Our web site content management system (CMS) is simple, effective, and always improving. You can focus on writing your content. Upgrades are free and automatic. And, we take requests. Do you need a feature? Let us know. We can probably build it for you, within budget and on a timeline. Included: excellent documentation.

Get ranked in search indexes

We help you optimize your web site pages for indexing by search engines like Bing and Google. We leverage the full suite of Bing and Google Webmaster Tools so that, in an increasingly dense and complex internet, more people find your web site.

Leverage social media

We help you build communities on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.

Organize and share documents

Do you have documents to share? We help you organize your documents by topic in a database and make them available to your audience in whatever format is most useful.

Manage people

We enable you to to easily manage constituents, medical patients, customers, clients, or any other group using an intuitive control panel. You can assign people to different levels of privilege. And your people can log in and manage their own profiles, if you wish.

Protect privileged content

Do you have materials that only authorized, logged-in members should see? You can establish different levels of login privilege to make sure that the right people see the right content.

Send and receive authenticated emails

We authenticate your email messages using DomainKeys and DKIM authentication, Reverse DNS, and Sender Policy Framework records. We make sure that your email messages land in your client's inbox -- not in the spam filter.

Manage mailing lists and discussion forums

You can manage and maintain targeted email mailing lists (a.k.a. "list serves") that allow you to send messages to selected groups of people. You can also have an email discussion group in which people can openly discuss pertinent topics. Many professional groups benefit and grow with this kind of open, daily, email-based exchange.

Develop gorgeous, formatted, web-safe email newsletters

Email management platforms like MS Outlook, Gmail, Hotmail, Mac Mail, and Yahoo Mail understand web code in a rudimentary way. That means, when you develop an HTML formatted newsletter, you need to use old-school web code, and conduct testing to ensure that your audience receives a legible message no matter what email platform they use. We have extensive experience in developing, testing, and sending web-safe email newsletters.

Work with, not against, the natural environment

The ebwebwork internet servers are hosted at Viviotech, a green technology company in Oregon, USA, that uses wind power to offset usage of CO2-emitting coal or oil. Your internet server offsets 500 kilowatt-hours of polluting carbon power with clean wind power.

Meet your budget

We know that small businesses and non-profit organizations do not have deep development budgets. We work with you to develop a budget and timeline for your internet project that meets your budget needs.

A socially responsible voice
We build green, intuitive internet solutions for the social sector, small business, and associations. In our own lives we take care to offend the earth as little as possible: we recycle, get around by bicycle, get our food from local farms. Our servers, managed by Viviotech.net, operate partially on wind power. We take pride in working with organizations who take steps to preserve our planet Earth, and who speak up for groups of people who, in a loud and unequal world, sometimes have to fight to be heard.

You are not alone
Our ebwebwork team has the support of an extended network of talented, generous, experienced colleagues. We find solutions for any problem.

Our web sites work
We apply W3C web standards to our web sites to ensure compatibility with modern web browsers (MSIE, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, etc.) on PC, Macintosh, and Linux platforms.
