Pheasants Forever FAQs

How is 3plains Affiliated with Pheasants Forever National?

Pheasants Forever National has named 3plains as their official chapter provider. We run independently of Pheasants Forever National and meet with them on a bi-annual basis about initiatives to keep the Pheasants Forever branding standards uniform. The result of these meeting bring cohesion between national Pheasants Forever and local Pheasants Forever chapters.

How quickly can I get my new website up and running?

It takes 24-48 hours for our website designers to launch your website during normal business hours.

I can host a website for much cheaper. Why 3plains?

A legitimate question. The annual cost we provide is not just "hosting". Hosting is only part of the cost, our price includes a variety of things.

Hosting - We host through Amazon Web Services, one of the industry leaders.
Domain - Paid domain name with annual renewal and registration.
Design - With another host, you still need to design your own website or pay another developer to build it. With our system, our web design is included at no cost.
Updating - With another host, you will need to find a way to update the website yourself or pay a developer to update it. With our system, our software allows anyone with no web skills to update the site.
Support - Being part of the 3plains family, you will benefit from other chapters that use related software.

Do you do custom work?

Yes. Any custom development will be billed at current rates. If an item is deemed to be beneficial to other chapters and is found to be easily replicated, we may not bill the item or the item may be subsidized to the benefit of the other chapters.

Can I have a different web design than the standard design install?

No. We have a standard framework on our 3plains network.

Why have a website with us over Facebook?

Facebook is very fragmented with its timeline and hard to find upcoming fundraising, youth, and local chapter events. It's organized in a timeline instead of logical modules or buckets.

Online Payments

If you will be doing firearm-related sales for raffles, PayPal/Square won't work. Authorize.net will work for gun raffles and everything else you need to do. Read more here.

Logo Usage

Logo usage, logo downloads and social media toolkit.

Point of Contact

Please designate one point of contact for your chapter. We recommend the point of contact be called your chapter Website Administrator. This does not have to be an ultra tech savvy person since we have taken the difficulty out of updating your Chapter website.

Recommendation

The individual appointed to update your chapter website should be a person with the time to update the website with good fresh content, timely updates, and knowledge of the organizations messaging and mission. An updated website is important!
