if you have a website about local news, people can join your email list and you can then email
them all at one time. The email lists are set up and controlled with your control panel.

info@mysite.com is then sent to everyone on your list: bob@mysite.com +
joanne@mysite.com + steve@mysite.com.

Customised error pages
You can create a single webpage, anything you like,
and insert the html code into the control panel so that whenever someone gets a 404 error message on your website
they see your pre-designed page and not the default error message. Your error page could be your home page, thus
taking the visitor back to your site and not forcing them away. For example, say
the page the visitor wants to look at is "www.mysite.com/info.html" and they type "www.mysite.com/information.html",
they will see your home page or whatever you want them to see.
Another helpful feature of your control panel are the error logs. With these you can see where 404
errors have occurred. This will allow you to easily locate any bad links or code in your website and fix it.

visitor. You can place this counter on any webpage you like, you have full control over where to place our scripts.
FormMail
Rather than asking your visitors to click on your email address that brings up their normal email software,
FormMail allows your visitor to type their message in user-defined areas (boxes) on the webpage. They then
click on send and it is converted into an email and sent to the email address you requested. The visitor can
then be sent, automatically, to a new webpage saying "thank you for contacting us" etc.
GuestBook
Your visitors can leave a message in your free GuestBook.
Message board
Your visitors can leave messages for you and / or each other and other visitors can also join in. Great for
discussion topics.
