yourgroup.folkdance.org.nz

One of the benefits of membership is the option to set up your own group's website within the folkdance.org.nz domain. This is called a "sub-domain".

You can then place on your website content that is additional to any listings in the Classes and Events sections of folkdance.org.nz.

There are some conditions. Those for non-profit organisations, events and classes are listed below. Contact the webmaster for more information:

Requests by businesses may be considered, but will be subject to committee approval. For terms and conditions contact the webmaster.

Non-profit organisations, folkloric dance classes and events

For an example, look at ruritanians.folkdance.org.nz. Conditions:

• You or your group must be a member of Folk Dance New Zealand. Click here for a membership form! (Tip: print 2-sided, flip on short edge)
• The content must pertain to folkloric, cultural or ethnic dance occurring in New Zealand.
• You are responsible for the content, i.e. what it says, supplying photos / graphics, etc.
• You are responsible for its promotion. However, a link will be provided from the FDNZ website where it fits with existing content.
• You have a couple of options for design, construction and maintenance of the website:
  1. You take full responsibility for design, construction and maintenance.
  2. FDNZ volunteers might be able to construct and/or maintain your website if it is a few simple pages, you know what is to go on each, you're prepared for service "as time permits", and it has no scripting*. Money to help pay for development machines and software would be greatly appreciated.
• You have a couple of options for hosting and technical support of the website:
  1. You arrange hosting on a server with a fixed IP address unique to the website.
  2. FDNZ can host the website if you're prepared for service "as time permits", with no scripting support*, stays within certain space and volume constraints, and it is strictly not-for-profit. Money to help pay for server equipment and software would be greatly appreciated.
• The sub-domain name remains the property of FDNZ.
• FDNZ reserves the right to decline or withdraw service without giving a reason.
• You will be responsible for paying any costs incurred by FDNZ for domain name set-up and maintenance, and any of the above services requested by you.
• You will indemnify FDNZ and its members against any actions resulting from content on your website.

* At this point in time, support for scripting is not available. Therefore feedback forms, databases, etc. are currently excluded.
