Frequently
Asked Questions
- What
is Scoutingpage.org?
Provides free web space and email for Scouts all over the world.
- Who
Can Use Scoutingpages.org?
Any Boy Scout Troop or Pack, Girl Scout Troop, or
International Scouting Organization.
- How
Much Does it Cost?
FREE! Any Troop, Pack, or other Scouting Organization
will receive a web site with a 25MB Quota and 1 email address. If
you have a domain name that you would like to use I require a one
time donation of $10 as additional time to setup the domain is
required as well as additional resources on my servers. Also you
may purchase additional email accounts for a one time donation of
$5 each. All donations are used to pay for ISP fees.
- Why
is this Service Free?
As an Eagle Scout, I want to return to the Scouting
community something to help raise the youth of today in the
Scouting way. I am running this service though my hosting company
Bandwidth West and any donations are appreciated but not required
for a standard account.

to Sign Up?

Please note: Due to
my current busy schedule with my day job, I may only have time to
answer emails and approve accounts on the weekends (sometimes it
can take up to 1-4 weeks to respond), sorry for any delays that
this may cause.
- Can
I use my own domain name?
Yes you can. All you need to do is make sure your name servers are
pointed to ns1.bandwidthwest.net and ns2.bandwidthwest.net. Once
you have your domains name servers pointed you need to notify me
so that I can create the necessary changes on my servers. A one
time donation of $10 is now required to offset the additional time
and resources that hosted domains require.
- Do
you support FrontPage Extensions?
Yes. We support all versions of FrontPage.
- How
do I upload my Web Page?
If you do not have FrontPage then we will setup an FTP (File
Transfer Protocol) account for you where you can use an FTP
program such as WS_FTP, Internet Explorer, CuteFTP, or any other
FTP client.
- Can
I have password protected areas?
I will on a case by case basis setup an additional account for a
password protected area.
- What
if I need more than the 25MB of space?
As long as all content is Scouting related, I will normally
increase your limit.
- What
information will I need to provide when signing up?
I will need your:
- City
- State
- Country
- Group
Name and or Number
- FTP
or FrontPage access
- If
you want an email address or not
- NOTE: If
you do not upload a page within 90 days of your accounts creation
your account may be removed...
