Easy and Painless Setup

See more site samples
on our Facebook page.

You have enough to do with your campaign. Why let the creation of your website become another headache? The setup for Online Candidate is simple and painless. We've worked to streamline the process down to a few simple steps.

Select your campaign package and order. You will be returned to an online form. From here we will ask for some basic contact and campaign information (such as who to register the domain under, your basic color scheme, font type, etc.). With this information (and usually a candidate head shot), we can start the site setup right away!

Your website domain will be set up in 1-2 business days. Your site customizations can usually be finished in that time, sometimes a little longer.

Log in and begin adding your content as your site is designed.  When your header and template is complete, you can generate your site and go live immediately! Our Content Library, available to hosted clients, contains a useful assortment of images, links and tools.

Combine Your Print and Web Design

While we're designing your website, let us design your campaign print templates, too. For a very reasonable price, we can design a series of Word brochure templates to match your new websiste. See the Order Section for details.
