How much does it cost?
This service is available at no charge to the Yale SOM faculty.
How do I get it?
Send an email to somit@yale.edu with a brief description of your request. The request should include who the website is for (name and SOM affiliation), along with a list of those who will be managing the website (name, NetID).
How do I get access to an existing site?
Faculty members seeking access to their site or to add additional users to their site may contact somit@yale.edu. Faculty support members seeking access to their supported faculty's' sites should contact Heather Amero heather.amero@yale.edu or Lacey D'Amato lacey.damato@yale.edu.
Opting Out
Wordpress is the only hosting solution that SOM offers for faculty personal sites. Faculty may choose to opt out of their existing WP site at any time, SOM IT will archive and redirect the site if a new externally hosted site has been setup. Many faculty have chosen to move their html based pages to GitHub Pages https://pages.github.com/
