Easy to navigate website, excellent search capabilities, and fast shipping on previous order. Love your site!

I inherited a Go Daddy website for a volunteer organization. Go Daddy website maintenance was easy to learn. Their training tutorials are fabulous! Best part is that there are real people who answer the phone when you need help. Go Daddy is the whole package if you need a website, a place to host it, training materials, and customer support.

Our group upgraded our website system twice and added a payment portal. Easy to figure out and run. Would wholeheartedly recommend!

Came across Pexels when I was tired of using the same 10 stock photos that came with the website platform I manage. LOVE that you can search pexels and download images for free. I used this site so much I started uploading -- I want others to get the great use of this site that I do.
Photo donators/uploaders know that they are putting their photos out there for use. I like knowing that I took some really cool photos that someone else may have a use for.
I appreciate interesting photos and a source for what I need when I don't have it. A free and truly easy site to use!

The Kansas Association for the Gifted Talented and Creative (KGTC) is a non-profit volunteer group in the state of Kansas supporting gifted education, gifted students, gifted families, and gifted educators. It is the only statewide organization whose sole mission is the support of gifted services.
The site has an amazing number of resources for educators, parents, and students. The articles, classes, tips, camps, and At Home Resources can be used by anyone!
The new At Home Resources page was created to help everyone during the stay-at-home directives -- everything from science lessons to use at home, to virtual roller coaster rides, to national weather service, to earth camera views from around the world, to school house rock videos, etc. So many varied ideas!
In addition, the site had resources and ideas for educators (gifted and general education) about how to deal with different level students in classrooms and how to adapt work for gifted students.
The group offers a membership which make you a voting member of the group and gives free access to webinars of various topics during the year. One statewide conference is held yearly in the fall that has key note speakers and a multitude of breakout sessions.
Lots of information specializing in gifted but applicable to many more!

This website highlights Always & Furever Midwest Animal Shelter who specializes in the rescue of senior dogs. Seniors are less likely to be adopted out of shelters or pounds and often have health problems the make people afraid to adopt them. Many senior dogs are abandoned when they become too hard to take care of or too ill.
A&F rescued over 1,000 dogs in 2020! Most are fostered and adopted to 'forever families.' Some are taken in to be given love for the remainder of their lives. The site tells the backstory of the little red barn and mission to love these dogs. A&F is a regsitered non-profit whose only goal is to show love to these mature, abandoned, or owner surrendered dogs.
A book has been written about the barn and its facebook "Goodnight" videos have reached around the world. A site and mission to touch your heart.

I have been beyond impressed with NASA website and the different areas. Entire sub-sites for Mars Rovers, telescopes, etc. They have lots of factual information, timelines, photos, videos, and blog links. I love seeing the comments from the scientists and mission controll personnel.
They have really stepped up their game and provided teaching resources and student sections/activities. Kudos to those who have taken this site and made it more accessible as an education tool!
This site is AMAZING!

ItsDeductibleOnline is a site to enter donations that can then be imported into TurboTax (tax preparation) software. Before this site was created, I was keeping my own spreadsheets of monetary donations, item donations, miles, etc. and then putting them in while preparing taxes.
This site is sooooo helpful! Because I can enter donations in year long, I can cut down on the amount of time I am entering info at tax time. It's enough of a pain as is to enter wages, tuition, interest, etc. without haivng to do charitable donations at the same time. Spreading this out during the year is so helpful!
The site allows you to track monetary donations, miles driven for charity, track things like tolls while driving for charity, and item donations. THIS item donation is the best! It will give you the current 'going rate' for item donation (like what to claim for donation of a pair of kid's bluejeans). And you can add items that don't exist in their database and place a $ amount on it yourself.
AND since you create an account, it keeps your year to year donation and charity information. So if you gave to a certain charity last year you do not have to renenter name/address info this year.
It is SUPER EASY to import information. While using TurboTax, when you get to the Charitable Donation section it will ask you if you want to import from ItsDeductible. If you say yes, it will ask for your username and password, import the data, and put it all in whatever form or category it belongs.
EXCELLENT site!

We just purchased another set of front floor mats, back floor mats, and cargo liner for a different make and model car than we've ever purchased before. Perfect fit just as all the others. Excellent product and company!

Anyone who has/is a low brass player (tuba, trombone, euphonium, horn) knows how hard it is to find music for these instruments. Sure you can find basics but what about when you need more than basic?

Lowbrassmusic is a fantastic find. You can search for music by instrument, solo - duet - trio - etc, ensembles, accompanied, composer, piece title, publisher, and lots more. Reasonable prices

Some pieces are hardcopy only, some are. Pdf downloads, and some are both. Be aware that many competitions will NOT allow a. Pdf printer copy of music -- when they say 'original copy' a printer copy of a. Pdf is usually not accepted.

Music is also given a 'grade' level indicating difficulty. Many pieces also have a 30 second clip you can listen to. Customer service reps were really helpful when I started out as a clueless new lowbrass parent!

Amazing, fantastic music library! Nice, patient customer service

So very glad a friend introduced me too doodle.com Have you ever needed to set a meeting date & time with a group of people? You create a message and send it around and everyone answers but you still have to find the best day-time when the most people are available! Doodle does all this!

You enter in your dates & times and create your 'poll.' You can either enter emails in doodle to send the poll or (if you're me) you send the link to your own email and pass the poll url from there. You do not need an account to answer the poll!
You look at the list of options, enter your name, and check when you are available. It obvious to see who can do when but doodle will also show you, mathematically what the best option is.

Fabulous tool to make planning easier! 100% recommend

Sign Up Genius is a fantastic free site (with possible upgrade options for $) for creating sign ups -- think of the paper lists that get passed around for signing up for committees, food for potlucks, who's bringing what to parties/get-togethers, and contact lists.

An amazing tool that gets used exclusively at our school, pto's, classes, parent groups, theatre signups, sport teams, etc. The creation of a signup lets you: put in general info & a description, select a visual theme (they have tons or you can upload your own picture), create date and time slots, create named slots (will be a chaperone, provide a salad, sign up for a ticket taking slot, etc.), apply rules (sign up person must include email address and phone number), option for comments, and ability to communicate with all signup people via email or text. Very powerful and easy to figure out. I personally love the ability to copy an existing signup and modify it. A url is generated so it can be sent to mobile phones and signs up done there.

Here are some of the ways I have created and used:
1) Dinner signups on assigned days for families with illnesses/death with listed food item
2) Sign up for ticket taking at theatre production on multiple days and multiple time slots
3) Sign up for 15 different committees for band parent organization
4) Sign up for chaperone slots for scouting events, school trips,
5) Student sign up slots for volunteer opportunities and hours
6) Sign up for multiple offerings of CPR classes for our church

Fantastically powerful tool that people can use to sign up AND they are not required to create an account to sign up for anything (but creators do have to have an account) Notification settings can be set for the creator also (notify me when someone signs up, changes slots, cancels, etc.)

My kids have used High Sierra Backpacks (Access Laptop backpacks) for years. STRONG and lots of colors, good sized, lots of pockets. We usually replace every 2 years due to normal wear. Once the kids hit high school STRONG was a requirement -- textbooks are extraordinarily heavy these days.
Website has all the colors and types (certain stores only carry certain models).
Had 2 of our Access backpacks rip in the same place: where the zipper attached to the top of the b. P on the front. Contacted CS at High Sierra as the backpack tags list a Limited Lifetime Warranty. Since our damage was due to normal use -- they replaced the backpacks for free!
I did have to photograph damage, and send info about when purchased (2 & 4 years ago!). My claim was accepted and to have our replacements sent I had to cut a hole in both backpacks (to prove they were destroyed and so I didn't have to spend $ to send them in to company) and send a list of my 4 requested replacements.
Both new backpacks arrived within a week of final pictures being sent! The 3 cs reps I talked to were all helpful, sorry our products failed, and very clear and concise over what I needed to do for replacement. They did NOT require an original sales receipt, just the tags from inside the bag to prove they were from High Sierra.
More companies should take lessons from High Sierra: they stand behind their products, they made the claim and replacement process easy, they followed through on their warranty promises

You either love or "just don't get" the life is good t-shirts! We love them -- super super soft, pre-shrunk, wash well, and fun!

Have given gifts of pajamas before that the recipient is still saying thank you for!

Free shipping on everything from the site. You have to pay for returns but any exchanges are still shipped free of charge.

We have used 4imprint.com for 5 different orders over the past year. We were impressed with our interactions with this company on every order.

We did 3 short sleeve t orders, 1 long sleeve t order, and 1 jacket/windbreaker order. All went without a hitch! We selected heavy weight t's and have been thrilled with how our logos-text printing has held up wash after wash.

Our jackets are incredible! We ordered 75 for a group international trip -- they are great. You can select a lighter weight and cheaper t from anywhere but they won't last. Our group purchased ts from us because the ones they received from another company were cheap and almost see-through.

The 4imprint site has some great design tools that are easy to use. You can also upload your own logo/art. Lots of colors, lots of sizes, lots of styles!

Walkabouttravelgear is a website that offers items for sale for use in different countries: plug adapters, voltage converters, safety products, travel & packing products, health & water, bugs, tools, etc.
Large categories of stuff and a smaller number of items available make for items that are tried and true.

The descriptions of the plug & voltage adapters is quite good giving lots of examples of what item to use for Americans traveling with whatever electrical-thing you are taking with you.

Their customer service is excellent both on the phone and via email!
I ordered the wrong item, was able to get a real person to help get what I really needed, both phone and email rep helped with best way to handle exchange within a specific time frame, shipping was quick, and my refund posted very quickly!

Their Walkabout travel tips and Cyberlinks contain some wonderful information! Browse around for some incredible opportunities you may not have heard of before!

sheetmusicplus.com is a great source for sheet music, music books, group music, and competition music.

My kids play 3 uncommon instruments and music is not always easy to come by. If you play piano, trumpet, or flute you can find lots of music anywhere! We have had great selections of popular music, music study books, and not-common music/books.

The search engine is good (instrument name) and prices seem to be a $1-$2 less than other sources. Shipping is fast and I LOVE the hard/chipboard mailers that the music comes in so nothing is damaged or torn.

Another plus -- they offer digital music downloads! Instantly download the music you purchased and print it yourself (if you want to print). *Only caveat here -- some competitions will not allow self-printed music so check before you assume it's ok!

A GREAT source for sheet music!

Love it! Freesound.org is a website with audio files of sounds and sound effects. All are free and downloadable.

Was asked to do some emergency help for a school play when one of the directors got pneumonia. I was easily able to get phone rings, train whistles, door slams, footsteps, creaky door sounds, door bells, howling wind, and thunder sounds.

Site lets you listen once or repeat them in a loop -- very handy!

I am semi-pc literate and was easily able to get these files, download them, get them into iTunes and burn them onto a CD.

Lots and lots and lots of sounds, pretty good search engine, easy to use and navigate!

Free network shared folders with ability to co-own or just read items in the folders with other users. Co-owners (who can add to, edit, delete) of folders have to install dropbox, linked users (read only) do not have to install dropbox.

Got a recommendation from a high school principal to use this when we were writing a school based handbook that was too large to pass through the school's email filter. Amazingly easy to use!

I LOVE the ability to co-own (share) a folder so everyone can edit documents or to give people read-only access (link) to documents and pictures. This is perfect for the various groups I belong to where we need to co-author or co-edit meeting minutes, fliers and spreadsheets. Also allows people to read-only folder contents so everyone has access to pictures, rules & regs, by laws.

Dropbox has lessened the need for group email with attachments -- we don't have to send out, receive and edit, re-send, edit again, resend, etc. Easy to use once you speak the share-link terminology. Lots of free space and your space is increased as you share-link to other users.

One drawback -- I'd like the ability to share with others so they can read and edit but not allow them to delete anything! Still, 100% recommend dropbox!

LOTS of variety on quizzes, trivia, and game topics. I love this website! Also like that you can submit games of your own.

Not only fun for adults -- but kids too! There are lots of topics that can get them interested to play (I hooked a kid with a Pokémon game then challenged him to a geography game --- sneaky!)

Games come in different varieties: matching, spelling, selecting from a list, ordering, naming & identifying, fill in the blank, listing, etc. Excellent to keep brain sharp and just have fun!

Looking for info on oneshare.com
The site lets you buy a single share of stock in many many companies for a $39 fee (or less if it's on sale!)

Wanted to know is this is a good price for a single stock purchase and has anyone had direct experience with them?
