Host Monster bonus features with all accounts

I just wanted to go over some bonus features Host Monster is offering:

Bulletin Board (Message Forum)

Electronic version of a noticeboard; bulletin board programs allow people to leave, read and response to messages and are typically used for interest groups on specific topics.

This is great that Host Monster provides this. Typically a web developer would charge you a packet to set this up for you, but no need with push and play.

Form-mail Script

This is a form to email processor. It allows you to put a contact or comments form on your webpage, which is sent to you by email.

Very handy and very simple.

PHP Nuke

Content management and portal solution featuring web-based administration, surveys, customizable blocks, modules and themes with multilanguage support.

I love that Host Monster is providing this as one of their tools. It basically puts all the power in the hands of the business owner

Guestbook

A guestbook is a logging system that allows visitors of a website to leave a public comment.

It's amazing how this list keeps going on and on. A more advanced version of a feedback form and thanks again to Host Monster for providing it.

Web Blogs/Wordpress/b2evolution

b2evolution includes all the features of traditional blog tools, and extends them with evolved features such as file & photo management, advanced skinning, multiple blogs support as well as detailed user permissions...

Mailing Lists

Compilations of names, addresses, titles, companies, and other statistical information. Lists usually contain names of persons sharing a similar characteristic, ie, subscribers to a particular magazine or credit card holders.

So important to have a mailing list, keep your website visitors in touch with what's going on

Image Galleries/Coppermine

Coppermine Photo Gallery. Coppermine is a multi-purpose fully-featured and integrated web picture gallery script.

Always nice to be able to easily publish your photos online. Host Monster caters for all types of users. Making it simple for the novice.

Poll and Survey Software

Poll Manager Survey software for creating online surveys create polls and gather customer feedback, create web based surveys.

Great way to get user interaction on your website.

Moodle

Moodle is a course management system (CMS) - a free Open Source software package designed to help educators create effective online courses.

It really does open your eyes to all the fantastic options Host Monster is providing.

Mambo and Joomla

Mambo (formerly named Mambo Open Source or MOS) is a free software / open source content management system (CMS) for creating and managing websites through a simple web interface. It has attracted many users due to its ease of use. Mambo also includes more advanced features such as page caching to improve performance on busy sites, advanced templating techniques, and a fairly robust API.

phpForm Generator

phpFormGenerator is a an easy, online tool for creating reliable, efficient, and aesthetically pleasing web forms in a snap. No programming of any sort is required.

A lot of people would be kicking themsleves after paying a small fortune to get applications developed. They could have just gotten a Host Monster account and avoided it all.

Believe it or not there is more and I will continue that for another post.
