Welcome to DOMBlogger!
Welcome to the preview of the DOMBlogger Content Management System.
DOMBlogger is a CMS that uses the Document Object Model internally for generation of web page content. By viewing a web page as an object that is a collection of objects, it makes it easier to adapt your content to a wide variety of aesthetic layouts and increase web application security while maintaining standards compliance.
The primary goals of the DOMDocument CMS:
- Security
- Server Level
- Web Application Level
- Database Level
- Browser Level
- HTML5 Standards Compliance
- Accessibility for Users with Disabilities
- Ease of Use
There is still a lot of work to do, but the project is well underway. All web pages currently served from this domain are already using the CMS. There is still some functionality that needs to be added, testing with all major browsers (and some minor browsers), testing with mobile computing devices, code optimization, etc. that needs to be done.
I am hoping for a March launch date. That may be optimistic, but that is the current goal.
Using DOMBlogger
Four plans for using DOMBlogger will eventually be made available:
Blogging Only
If all you want to do is blog, free accounts will be made available for bloggers. There will some restrictions to blogging only accounts. For example, there will be non obtrusive advertisements in the margin of your content and you will not be allowed to upload custom JavaScript. You blog will be a sub domain of domblogger.net.
A limited number of Blogging Only accounts will be made available at product launch.
Hosted Account
If you want to use your own domain name, upload articles outside of the blog context, upload your own custom JavaScript, or do not want our advertisements but you do not wish to maintain your own server, this is probably the plan for you.
Cost has not yet been determined, but it will probably be in the neighborhood of $7.00 (US) a month, with a discount for multi-month purchase.
Hosted accounts will be made available at product launch.
Managed Linode
If you need more space or bandwidth than a Hosted Account offers or you want to add your own custom php to your web site but you do not want to administrate your own server, we will be offering managed hosting through Linode.
Linode offers fully functional virtual servers. With managed hosting, we can take care of setting up, configuring, and securing the operating system and installing the DOMBlogger Content Management System for you.
Pricing has not yet been determined, but will likely be in the neighborhood of $20 a month for basic managed hosting. If you need server software managed that is not part of the DOMBlogger CMS, a custom quote will be given.
The cost of Linode hosting is not included.
We will not manage e-mail servers.
This option will not be available at initial product launch.
Licensing
This option is for customers who wish to license the DOMBlogger CMS to run on their own servers without us managing the server.
This option will not be available at initial product launch.
