As your company and site grows, it is inevitable that you will want to move the modules around, change content, post documents, etc. myCommunityHost.com Advanced Portal Solution will make this as easy as 1-2-3. Just click edit, type, and click save… Its just that easy…

Lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
You do not need any telnet, ftp, FrontPage, not to mention Visual Studio.NET or Dreamweaver suites or other otherwise important tools for programmers. With Advanced Portal -Hassle Free architecture and a user editable interface to all of your content you will finally focus on the message your site is supposed to send rather than on your IT budget. You won't need to be paying the webmasters hundreds of dollars every time you want to make a simple change to your site.

If you need to change it, just login and make the change, it’s that easy…

You also don’t need to have your staff send update requests to administrators or webmasters. With role-based security you can grant them rights to change the content that they are responsible for. All your staff needs to do is login and make the change. Now, that is a time and money saver!

Security
Advanced Portal with myCommunityHost.com will provide you with a secure, reliable, and flexible solution. Every object in the portal can have specific security settings applied to allow or deny users from seeing, editing, or administering the different parts of your site.

An example of this is the Discussion control. You may only want registered users to add new posts to the Discussion, but it may be just fine for non registered users to view the posts. In this case you can grant read rights to non-registered users and read/edit rights to registered users. Role-based security and permission model is a key feature of our Advanced Portal solution at myCommunityHost.com.

Weather Network
The Weather Network module renders a dynamic weather forecast provided by The Weather Network for a city in either the United States or Canada.
