Chapter Web Sites hosted by SPJ

The Society of Professional Journalists is now offering free web hosting for its chapters. This opportunity is open to professional and student chapters. The web sites will be hosted under the spjchapters.org address. Server space is limited to 50 MB per chapter site, and content management systems (such as Wordpress) that require SQL database accounts are not allowed. If your chapter would like to open an account, see the information below.

The following chapters have already taken advantage of this opportunity and have posted their own sites. Check them out through the links below:

Links to chapter sites not hosted here can be found through our chapter locator.

Each participating chapter will be responsible for designing, uploading, and maintaining its own site. Each chapter will be assigned access via file transfer protocol (FTP) to its own directory within the SPJ Chapters Web site. All chapter home pages must include a link back to the SPJ home page. Chapter pages will not be edited or changed in any way by headquarters staff. However, chapter pages must be maintained and updated regularly, and the staff reserves the right to remove a chapter’s site from the server and contact that chapter’s representative to ask them to update or change its content before the site will be made active again.

— Sign up for a new SPJ Chapter Web Hosting account
— Change contact information or password for your exisiting account

Any technical questions regarding chapter web hosting should be directed to Headquarters staff by e-mail.

Additional information about this opportunity will be published on this page of the SPJ web site as it becomes available. SPJ Chapter Web Hosting Terms of Agreement can be found here.
