Frequently Asked Questions
If I am running for local office, should I have my own campaign website?
Absolutely. A campaign website is essential for reaching voters and sharing your message. It costs far less to raise campaign funds online than through direct mail or other methods. With our platform, you can update your site easily, without needing any programming skills.

Why use Online Candidate rather than local web developer?
A local web developer may not have experience with politics and will almost certainly charge you more. A volunteer may lack the skills to do the job – and may disappear when you need them most.
Things move fast on the election trail, and you’ll need to be able to make site updates without waiting for someone else to make changes for you. With the our website builder, you are in control. Our platform is affordable and gives you full control, allowing you to make updates whenever needed, while also offering expert support for when you need it most.
“For a very reasonable price, Online Candidate allowed me to build a professional-looking website myself. They offered excellent customer service with a personal touch and great flexibility in creating my website. I am recommending them to everyone I know.” – F. Fuller
