Our servers are completely under our control, which ensures reliability (including running scripts for problem identification 24-hours a day). For server administration, SE uses client accessible software such as cPanel & WebHost Manager; proven platforms which allow us the most constant vigilance over our client websites. SE does not employ any kind of automated, unmonitored sign-up, which could be open to the public (and spammers). SE has a policy of not overselling server space, and we do not allow abuse of the CPU and other system resources. SE will continually review every hosted account, guaranteeing that a Client’s website will be in good company as it joins the world wide web.

Our Servers: Clustered, Linux OS servers with 3GHz 64 Bit Dual-Core AMD processors, 8GB of ECC DDR Ram, Hardware RAID 5 10,000RPM storage devices. With RAID 5 one drive can fail without any data being lost. Protection against a natural disaster or multiple drive failure is implemented using an off-site “live mirror” of the entire hosting account that maintains less than a 30-minute delay. Both datacenters house the equipment in server vaults.

Managed Customer Support – consists of setup of the hosting account, mail accounts, domain name configuration & transfer, and basic server interface maintenance. Support tickets are serviced during business hours within 24 hours of request.

SE holds bulk accounts with Domain Name registrars and are thus able to make these purchases more cheaply on behalf of clients. A charge is incurred for the cost of each domain name, and the service of making the purchase.

Spam and Junk email filtered from Client email account using server-based software.

Face-to-face, telephone, or email support for the site’s functionality. SE’s process for orienting clients to the site consists of three major components: Planning Meetings, Functional Orientation, and Support Time. Such time will be billed effectively after the first initial half-hour (30 min.) of consultation.

Developer will develop and maintainClient’s site via a dedicated Content Management System (CMS) known asDrupal. Drupal is open-source software governed by free licensingagreement. Web development work done by Developer on Client’s behalfwill mostly consist of customizing elements of the Drupal system to fitClient’s needs. Sundays Energy Green Energy Web Hosting is REQUIRED forall Drupal-based packaged services.

“Open source software is computer software whose source code is available under a license (or arrangement such as the public domain) that permits users to use, change, and improve the software, and to redistribute it in modified or unmodified form. It is often developed in a public, collaborative manner.” - Wikipedia, 2007

Content Management System (CMS)
The Drupal software system, which Sundays Energy uses for all websites,is the most powerful open-source CMS available today, capable ofdriving complex as well as simple websites. Whereas a proprietary(privately developed) CMS comes “ready out of the box”, the Drupalsystem must be configured to meet the needs of the client, a relativelysimple operation that usually does not even approach the purchase costof a private CMS (Proprietary CMS also require configurationpost-purchase).

Access to Wide Range of Functionality:
Another important benefit of working with open-source tools is thatparticipants may access thousands of programs and sub-programs. Aclient organization, which invests in an open-source solution isessentially working to facilitate the development of these publiclyavailable tools. This access to thousands of professional programmerswho create the tools affords unparalleled flexibility.

What this means for an organization with a Drupal website is that asthe needs associated with the online presence grow and change, they areequipped with astounding flexibility. The Drupal platform is the mostversatile of the open-source CMS options available, with thousands of“modules” available to do just about anything.

Service-based Approach:
Another implication of the Drupal system is that a client pays for aservice, rather than a product. Instead of spending $2000 (or even$10,000 or more) on a license for a CMS software package, the clientelects to pay an expert developer to facilitate the use of the system,to work out the kinks of configuration of the technology, to do thetweaking and modification necessary to meet the exact demands of theorganization, and to provide a beautiful, original and functionaldesign which allows users to reap maximum value from their experience.

Configuration and Community of Developers
Both open-source and proprietary software require support andconfiguration, but the lessons learned in the configuration of theopen-source system become public knowledge, immediately integrated intothe software development process. For example, Sundays Energy, whiledeveloping a Drupal e-commerce site for a client, assists in developingthe free Ubercart software “module” for e-commerce: giving feedback tothe project developers, testing versions, and generally improvingfunctionality. Sundays Energy is able to leverage the power of acommunity of developers to meet the clients’ current needs in anextremely affordable manner. Likewise, the software itself improvesthough Sundays Energy’s efforts.

An 8% surcharge will be applied to any package price when we work on a client server.

Extended Module Feature Set: The following features are included with the Drupal Install, but require some additional configuration and customization. SE has found that the most efficient way to customize features is to do so while training the Client in the use of the site, thus providing custom-tailored functionality while empowering the Client to regularly update the site content. (For clients who wish to have SE perform continued site content management, SE will configure the site without including a training component). Available Modules are listed below, along with estimates of the time required to configure them and train the Client in their use.

Modules Include the Following:

Aggregator - Used to collect data (RSS Feeds) and generate pages on your site with them.
Book - Used to create handbooks and books
Comment - For comments
Contact - Per user and site wide contact forms
Events - Allows for events calendar functionality
Forum - Allows operability of site-hosted forums
Path - URL aliases: generate more readable links
Path-auto - Automatic URL alias generation.
Poll - To create polls among users.
Profile - Used to allow members to volunteer information and browse various fields.
Search - Site-wide searching of content and users.
Statistics - Provides detailed statistics to help us understand our Visitors, keep troublemakers away and improve performance.
Taxonomy - Handles the categorization structure used for the projects and forums.
Upload - Attaching files to posts (set up only for site maintainers).
Image - Used for displaying the various screenshot galleries.
Simplenews - Runs newsletter and other broadcast mailings.
Extended Theme Set Installed - Makes basic Drupal themes (stock page designs) available to client site administrator (does NOT include customization).
WYSIWYG editor enabled - “What-you-see-is-what-you-get” text editor. Allows client & other users to update site content without having to use html or php code.
Permissions (admin role configuration) - Assigns distinct access to the site for different classes of users: administrators, limited-access users, logged-in users, etc.
Site Name, Mission, Footer information Input - Basic site information. Includes guidance on basic search engine page rank criteria & how the site may function.

“Modules”, such as those listed above, are functions of the Content Management System that provide functionality to display different kinds of information. Examples of modules may be a ‘calendar’ function which allows events to be listed, ‘blog’ for users to write regular updates, ‘forum’ which allows users to comment on , or ‘e-commerce’, which allows users to engage in commercial transactions through a series of payment gateways and security authentication. With the Drupal CMS, a variety of modules may be used with the system with various ease. Simple modules are often ready-to-use, and SE charges merely the set-up cost. More complex modules allow for deeper functionality, such as e-commerce or CRM (Constituent Relationship Management). These incur higher costs because they require some specific development work on the site by SE designers and programmers.

Includes Automatic Security and Module Updates

Flash design is available, in formats, which may be integrated with the Drupal database as well as performing independently.

A theme is the visual style of the website: the functional and artistic graphics that give a distinctive look and feel to the site. Our creative team will design a custom website theme for Client approval. This DOES NOT include programming/coding the design into the web interface, but rather performing artistic and creative interpretation of the clients’ vision and preferences, within the confines of what CAN be coded into web design, and within the budget set by the client.

Our creative team will develop logo design ideas for Client’s approval based on description or examples given by Client.

Our creative team will develop layouts and copy for specific marketing material such as brochures, business cards, banners, post cards, online mailer or custom banner, unique mailers, sustainable packaging and promotional items.

• In an initial meeting, Client and Developer determine the goal for the marketing material, in line with Client’s mission and vision.
• Developer will create a sketch of design ideas to be presented to the Client including vision and impact of the marketing material.
• Design must be signed off by the Client to move forward for development of materials.
• Final approval will be requested by Client before material is created.
• Final material is property of the Clients. All other proofs and ideas will be property of Developer. If Client wishes to use other proofs, an additional fee will be applied.

Our creative team will develop branding and packaging to lend personality and market appeal to Client’s company and/or product. Process is as follows:

• Meet with client to establish ideas of what the product/service will consist of and to whom it is intended to appeal.
• Developer’s creative team will use, taste, test product/service to obtain a more complete understanding of the company and product/service.
• Develop three initial designs to present to the Client.
• Design must be signed off by the Client to move forward for development of materials.
• Final material is property of the Clients. All other proofs and ideas will be property of Developer. If Client wishes to use other proofs, an additional fee will be applied.

Custom PHP Coding, see service description

Essentially, this represents the hard-coding of the aesthetic features into the website: the integration of the Drupal CMS functionality and the Graphic Design of the website.

Professional, polished, convincing text. Sundays Energy recognizes that web-published content is an opportunity for an organization to present a professional image, and that the benefits of high-quality design can be undermined by imprecise text.

Refining or creating copy for Copy for web, brochures, promotional materials, reports, and other publications.

Sundays Energy provides experienced, professional translation services to and from source documents in Spanish, and maintains contacts among translation professionals in many other language pairs.

Making sure the website works for all targeted users with all likely browser/interface software, under all circumstances. Custom-designed websites almost always have idiosyncratic features that cause some elements to display slightly off-kilter. Quality assurance includes testing and adjusting code if necessary.

SEO consists of basic strategizing for increasing traffic on the website, and target specific markets.

10GB Disk Space | 50GB Bandwidth | PHP 5.2.6 | Apache 2.2

10% CPU Usage | 400MB Ram | cPanel Access | Wind Power Credit

Managed hosting support not included
P4 3GHz with hyper threading or greater. Drives are RAID1. Backups saved once per day on remote storage.
Auto server monitoring with automatic messages about issues or failures.

10GB of additional disk space allocated to your hosting package. Disk Space refers to the capacity of Client’s account to store data. Web documents, images, email, statistics, scripts, video, and databases all take away from client's disk space quota. 10,000RPM drive speed, RAID 5 with dedicated controller. RAID 5 ensures your data is protected in the case of a drive failure.

Bandwidth refers to the capacity for this data to be accessed by visitors to the web page. Additional monthly bandwidth will be provided for your use.

To guarantee this monthly data transfer is possible and available to your site we guarantee a percentage of a 3 megabit per second or greater port to your site. 1000 kilobits of port speed is needed to transfer 320 GB of traffic over a 30 day period. Or, about 3.2 kilobits of port speed is needed to transfer 1 gigabyte over 30 days. In the real world you need about three times the port speed to realistically transfer the data! Sundays Energy allocates 10 kilobits of port speed per 1 gigabyte of monthly transfer. Other providers offer 3.2kbit per 1gig.

For example, accounts with 10GB of monthly transfer are guaranteed 100 kilobits of speed but still allowed to burst up to 3000 kilobits. Bursting is based on availability. As an average you will see burst speeds of 1000 to 2500kbits per second. For a comparison dialup is 56 kilobits, a T1 is 1500 kbits, while DSL and cable modems can reach download speeds that burst from 1500 to 8000 kilobits (8mbit) per second, but only upload at 400-800 kilobits. Keep in mind that during peak times the guaranteed port speed will be split by all the users of your site and bursting speed is shared by all users on the server or rack.

The more monthly transfer the higher the port speed. The higher the port speed the faster your site will transfer to the browser. For 100% guaranteed speeds of 1000 kilobits per second (burstable to 3000kbit based on availability), your account will need at least 100GB of monthly transfer. 300GB will guarantee speeds of 3,000kbit. This methodology is used up to 1,000GB of monthly transfer and 10,000kbit port speed. Keep in mind that you will need a dedicated server (or two) long before you actually transfer that much data. Please contact us for plan prices above 1TB or port speeds above 10mbits.

If you purchase internet access through Sundays Energy transfers over that internet connection WILL NOT count against your monthly transfer limit.

Daily, weekly, and monthly onsite backups accessible in cPanel. If you are actively developing new features on your site and you want to revert to how it looked a day ago or last week or even last month this is the package for you. You must purchase at least three times the space that is allocated to your account. Automatic, onsite, separate server-vault, RAID 5 storage protected against drive failure. Additional CPU time is highly recommended when doing daily, weekly, monthly backups.

Please Note: The basic hosting package will be automatically suspended after 5-10 minutes of 90% or greater utilization of a CPU.

The default hosting package allows for up to 10 minutes per day (0.7%) of single-core CPU time. If your site needs a lot of processing power you will require additional CPU time. Managing CPU time eliminates server overload. Examples of site features which require a lot of processing power include: e-commerce, backups, search, forums, dynamic features, mailing lists, extremely dynamic custom content, live feed of audio or video.

Maximum 15 minutes of sustained 90% utilization per increment.

256MB RAM Memory guaranteed available to your hosting account and PHP scripts.
