orthy of Praise is a service offered to you by PagePlop Web Hosting of Raleigh, North Carolina. As an organization, we have been very successful in marketing our products and services. Our customers have appreciated our expanding efforts and work ethic. We have truly enjoyed the blessings of the Lord in this corporate endeavor. And, this is our way of honoring Jesus Christ with our gifts and talents.

In 1996, Steve and Valerie Crisp began PagePlop Web Hosting Service and PagePlan Web Design as an alternative to the shortage of quality hosting organizations. Seeking to meet the needs of our hosting customers, we subsequently formed PagePlanet Software to develop Modular Gateway Interface (MGI) for the use of these working clients. In 1998, as these hosting and design services were expanding, we began marketing MGI as a commercial product. In 2003, PagePlop launched A-List Hosting as a separate site dedicated to email listserves for announcements, newsletters, ezines, community forums, discussions, etc. Throughout this process, PagePlop's goal has always been to provide excellent service and effective products at a very fair price.

At the inception of our business, we developed a set of principles by which we operate. Although they are presented in secular prose, they are all well-grounded in Biblical principles.

• There are no hard and fast rules - only exceptions. We recognize that every business is unique and we will work to accommodate your needs.
• We recognize that the computer services we provide are not magic, we will price those services fairly and affordably.
• We consider honor, respect, honesty, and hard work as admirable qualities that a business and its employees should observe.
• We understand that the World Wide Web is constantly evolving and we will keep up with those developments in order to help you understand the most effective way to use the Web.
• We believe in providing professional service while never forgetting that a good laugh now and then never hurt anyone.

So how are we able to offer free services?

We have been blessed to operate a growing business that serves the web hosting needs of corporate clients on all continents of the world. In considering how best to use our God given talents, we were called to create Worthy of Praise, a free web hosting service for Christian churches. Few people have the expertise and the infrastructure necessary for such an endeavor, but we were blessed with both.

Worthy of Praise is funded solely by profits from our web hosting and web design business. It is our privilege to offer this service and we ask for nothing in return. We are not a non-profit organization. We are a privately owned corporation.

Although we do not require it, if you or your organization would like to sponsor Worthy of Praise, please contact us. We accept and appreciate links from your web site to our web site, recommendations to others for our hosting and design services, and donations to offset the expenses of the service.
