Revision as of 02:09, 29 August 2009

xFamily.org collects and preserves information on the The Family International cult. In order to make this information freely accessible, server and bandwidth costs are incurred.

Some of these costs are covered by the donation of server administration from Able2Know.org. However, in order to archive our growing collection of documents and multimedia, xFamily.org requires significant resources of server space and bandwidth. Our goal is to comprehensively document "everything that is fit to print" about The Family International.

xFamily.org uses a dedicated server that costs $121/month as well as other services (including Amazon Web Services) which have variable costs based on the resources (such as data storage and transfer) used. As of May 2009, the average monthly cost of hosting xFamily.org is projected to be about $175 USD. We would like to maintain a buffer of 6 months worth of hosting costs. This allows us to contract the services we need with a small buffer of funds to ensure that the services can be paid for and that we can maintain this website online.
